Is it Jealousy or Am I Overreacting?



Recommended Posts

DH has been acting really strange lately. He keeps complaining about everything I buy for myself which I could understand if I were spending alot of money or if he was conservative with his.

He is a Jordan fan, you know those $150+ sneakers and owns dozens. This has always been a sore spot for me since I believe that buying a new pair every month is a waste of money especially since he very very rarely wears any of them.

Anyways the point is I have been shopping alot for me lately but- because I am-yay me-changing sizes I am not interested in spending alot of money on any one item. I havent even bought a winter coat yet becuase I am trying to get one at the cheapest price since I am hoping I will not be wearing the same size next winter. I have been doing alot of shopping at Marshalls and AJ Wright, etc. I mean literally I have not spent more than $19.99 on pants! How can anyone be upset with that? I also am a manager at work and have to look the part. I cant be walking around with droopy elephant ass becuase my pants are too big, ya know? :biggrin:

Well things got really aggrivating when last week I cleaned my closet out for the 2nd time since surgery. He kept making comments about, "hey- cant you shrink that, cant you have that taken in?" I know he was joking and trying to be funny about it but Damn it- let me have my moment! This is the first time in a long time that I am spending a little money on myslef, dont I deserve it?

Am I overreacting-I am very moody lately- or is he being an ass?

It's not a happy time when our DH's aren't with us on our rewards!! You're very proud of yourself so I'm sure you want him to be too! My DH only sees the bags...not what good deals I searched for. I waited this weekend to bring them in while he was out...hoping that he'll like what he sees when it's on me-ha! I hope things turn out to be not much of a big deal for you...congrats on your success!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
