Then some cynical anons saying that his wife is cheating and buying the flowers was her "making up" for cheating. Schizos pretty much. Don't be like those anons. Remember good stuff happens to some of us too. :D
I agree. I love flowers, have a great flower garden, but I don't want to be given flowers as a gift, a potted plant is different, but cut flowers is odd.
Some of these are kinda mid. Like it’s obvious things, not subtle details. It’s a woman, so ofc she’s married to a man if she’s married. Do more specific things that are masculine and thus homosexual within the joke context
That wasnt apathy. Simply a lack of expression. She _felt_ the affection, just didnt express that she appreciated it, and didnt realise she had taken him for granted
@fgvcosmic6752 All that emotion and so few words or actions. Maybe her emotions are cap because she never chose to do anything beyond saying, "Thank you." But okay, some of us can let her credit herself
@@JesterKingZant Some people genuinely just do not express their love normally. From what I hear, this is very common amongst people with ASD, to the point where their partners can even assume that they are being cheated on due to the apparent apathy, when in reality, their S/O just has some form of autism. Ofc, autism is also far from the only cause-there can be a myriad of reasons for why someone might be unable to properly express their affection, including traumas, mental conditions, insecurities, etc., so it’s pretty shortsighted to assume that this person just doesn’t care when the entire point of the post (assuming it is real, as this comment seems to assume that it is real as well) is this person venting about how they’ve realized how little they do for the person they love the most, and expressing desire to show their love more.

They're attuned to how they feel because society tells them their feelings are the center of everyone's universe. How other people feel generally irrelevant except for how to get what u want.
She's already taken a first step by doing something to make him happy. You can't go back and change the past, but she was smart enough to start making an effort purely out of love. Little things help far more than people realize, and her thinking on her behavior means she's already past the biggest hurdle. ...I mean, fake & gey

Honestly? I don't think she realizes how little appreciation men get overall. Being complimented is such a great example of this. It's so rare that when it happens once, a decade ago, and you'll still think about it from time to time. The fact that she's realizing these things and actively taking steps to do better is why I wouldn't consider her to be a bad wife. You've been with someone for awhile, you have some kids, and things can stagnate. It happens. Better to realize it and change it for the better than do something stupid like having an affair.
She's a well above average wife with a wonderful husband. Plenty of women would have got resentful of their husband for making their friends "attack" them, long rant about how they don't understand how tired she is, how hard her life is, how she deserves to get everything from him & give nothing back.
This is a woman who is emotionally stunted. She has grown up with a lack of empathy and have hade difficulty to develop it herself. We're not born with empathy, its imprinted upon us in early development to insure a positive group dynamic for survival. Those lacking are often stunted, egotistical or plain greedy. But she understands the dynamics of empathy and has made the first step of having a healthy mindset concerning this. The husband had been conditioned to not expect any reciprocation of his actions of endearments, so the one time she does it, not out of traditions, rituals or similar, but actually just because, it confirms in him her love for him.
@@zenks5883 He may have teared up two more times, but she wouldn't have seen it because she would have run off with her personal trainer or yoga instructor after seeing the first time
This is an insanely nice story… which makes me saddened that I must do this. Fake: Anon has had interaction with the opposite gender Gay: anon is a man.
Everyone stfu with the usual 4chan cynicism. This story is true, straight, based, and the fact that she's even come to this realization makes Anon a chadette of a wife.
It may be the first time someone got him a gift for any reason other than a birthday or Christmas. And it's very likely it's the first time someone got him something "because I was thinking of you."
Her empathy for him tells me they’re going to be fine. Like most things in life, you don’t know what you don’t know until you do. It’s what gives me hope about humanity’s future
Well this post proves she isn't a bad wife. She can become a much better one though and she wants to. Which if she goes through with it, will be a total win.
A female gives her husband flowers 1 time = not bad wife. Lmfao She's a dogshit wife if her husband reacted to even a little bit of positive / romantic gesture. She never loved him. That man deserves / deserved better.
2:59 proves she's a bad wife. She already blames her ignoring him on the normal stress of life. In other words not her fault. No personal responsibility.
Eh, it reads like she took her husband for granted. If you look at it from the husband's perspective, the marriage seems loveless. She talks about how she didn't notice how romantic her husband was until her friends pointed it out. Him crying was likely because he had begun worrying if she still loved him. Little romance goes a long way in showing how much you still value your spouse.
I think that this sort of thing happens with a lot of women. I know I've had my troubles with showing my boyfriend the appreciation he deserves. What tends to happen is that something small happens, it shows me that I haven't been as attentive or outwardly loving towards him as I could be, and I go through dozens of little spirals of hating myself for not being good enough for him. I get so caugh up in self-hatred that I forget to actually change the way I behave towards him. Sometimes it takes a while, but I do end up changing the way I do things to show my appreciation of him. Again, I think a lot of women who have boyfriends/husbands that they actually like have this happen to them a lot. A lot goes on in our heads before action starts- but we do want to show the men in our lives that we care about them! We know you deserve it and want to make you happy. It just takes some time.
Goes to show you how much your wife's friends can either fix or ruin your marriage. If her friends would have been giving her bad advice, this would have gone south really fast.
Yeeaaah... others have said the same, but women in general do not understand how little appreciation the average man gets throughout his life. I STILL remember a genuinely heartfelt and unsolicited compliment I got fifteen years ago.
Usually the only kind words spoken about him at his own funeral is how much of a good worker and provider for his family he was. As a man you're expected to do your job correctly without complaining and if anyone says "good job" or "you did great work today" it is off puting as most boys/men do not get complemented and it makes us immediately think that the person showing gratitude is trying to manipulate us. I think I'm gonna go buy a 6 pack of beer and go drink it all at my father's grave tomorrow.
Nonzero chance he was genuinely scared that his wife didnt love him. Probably was eating him up inside and he was getting to a point where he was starting to believe she hated him. Endless romantic actions very much could have been trying to "relight that spark" out of fear of losing the relationship.
@fgvcosmic6752idk ive never been given flowers and as i was reading i think i would get emotional, its like one of those little gestures you never think about cause it never happens, catch you off guard
I don’t think he would’ve left her, but, as other dude here said, he probably was scared she didn’t love him, or that he would never have that from her. Worried that he’d just not get that loving feeling. It’s clear he’s a good guy and Ioves her and their daughter, so doing this makes a big difference to him. He yearns for it
@fgvcosmic6752 Endless actions to try to relight the spark sort of echoes in something I’ve thought surrounding my parent’s relationship, but I think that might have been due to factors outside of them (mom had depression). Cause I know my dad gives gifts and stuff, but it got to a certain point to where he’d just sort of put her on a pedestal of sorts. I think nowadays and after a lot of arguing and figuring things out, they actually do stuff together and spend quality time with eachother
I noticed this yesterday about a "woman" post too. Saying a lot without saying much. On the other hand, could still be males knowing how to copy women lol
Sounds like my marriage with my ex-wife. She never did anything for me. She was cold, emotionally distant, and extremely negative/abusive. If she had given me flowers I probably would've broken down.
Props to wife for going through the work and waking up... Never at all shame a woman who is being accountable... You fall to your knees, and pray, for it is a sign of the end...
I think just words would be more than enough for him to know how she feels, but I'm guessing it won't be enough for her to feel that she's doing enough
This making me cry instantly says a lot about my marriage. Wish me luck bros, the life of my kids and me is so close to being in shambles you wouldn't believe it
There's 0% chance this was written by an actual 35female married and with kids lmao. I can guarantee you there's exactly 0 married women above 30 on 4chan
Things wouldn't change and he'd forever be misrable, believing his wife didn't love him, if she didn't do any introspection and change. It's not him that needed to do something different, it's her.
She should both work on showing her appreciation and tell him that he is the light of her life. He deserves to know right away and then see that reflected in her change in behavior- she might not be doing enough right now, but that doesn't mean she can't in time. Always strive to be better for the people that matter to you!
You can tell a real woman wrote this because of how much yapping she does. All jokes aside, I'm actually really proud of her for making changes in her relationship and her behavior. This post was really heartwarming.
When someone goes above and beyond for you all the time, it eventually becomes routine and doesn't feel special anymore, and people tend to forget that their significant other does a lot for them. When I was married, I used to write my wife romantic letters and get her favorite flowers, and she was ecstatic at first, but eventually she barely reacted and didn't really seem to care. Unsurprisingly, she filed for divorce after she found someone else.
This is what happens when you didn't have to developed any game because options come to you, you turn into the prize in your head and don't reciprocate.
My brain refused to call this as a fake, because she said her husband crying profusely. No man would make a fake story about a man crying excessively. Worst case, it's written by divorced woman
You're probably right, but don't underestimate the number of female degens that have risen up in recent years. And guess what: a lot of them originally started on 4chan, and occasionally still go there.
"Should I talk to him about it?" If the story is to be believed, the man has just openly cried in front of you at being given the gift of flowers. Think that's a good signal that, yes, you should talk to him about it. That's not because of the flowers nor the (accurate) sentiment that men only get flowers at our funerals. It was because being given 'a gift' (after probably being the giver of gifts for years by this point), means that some of these feelings we never express ('Does she still love me?' BAD, YOU'RE NOT NEEDY ARE YOU?!) have been implicitly answered through a gift that, normally, he would be responsible for.
def should feel guilty. see how she wrote "I've been caught up in the daily grind of life to realize just how much he's doing for me" def her friends are right lmao. You don't deserve him do better
This woman went 35 years without ever considering, for one minute "huh maybe people appreciate reciprocation?" And that is young women in a nutshell. Giving a woman flowers or compliments is like giving a glass of water to a drowning person. Giving a man flowers or compliments is giving that same glass of water to someone stranded in the desert. Except the drowning women will still complain that men aren't there rescuing them, while also choosing a bear over men to rescue them. It blows me away that anyone could be THIS OBLIVIOUS.
This is a lesbian story. If it was for actual man he would look confused about flowers and ask "what should I do with them?". Men usually get happy from whiskey, beer or some toys/hobby appliances.
This lady doesn't seem to grasp that her husband is so overjoyed of the bouquet exactly because she almost never does these things. She, on the other hand, does get such affections whole the time it seems, which sadly has watered the experience. Her person seems not that romantic either. Sad irony is that the partner who appreciates these gestures is more disposed to make them and vice versa. As to fixing the issue, Meister Eckhart once said it well: "truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us." That is, if she knows she's been a bad wife, she's already a better one.
if you're in simmilar situation to this do BOTH. Dont just try to improve. And dont just talk to them about those feelings. DO both. Talk to them about it and THEN prove you care by trying to improve.
There's nothing wrong with trying to be a better wife. But her husband sounds like a wuss to be honest, which is why she doesn't have the drive to be romantic.
Femanon, you need to talk to him about what you're feeling, you're likely overthinking things and the fact you're thinking about this doesn't make you a bad wife.
4chan is a collective of ppl from all walks of life and all circumstances. The story is obv fake and gay, but you see things like this from time to time on there. Plus 4chan is like 30 different message boards about various topics/interests. Most 4channers only browse a couple boards. I've only been on like 4 boards total since I was a kid. So you can get anything from bro's giving hyping you up and giving you life and exercise advice on /fit/, gore, memes, prons, feels threads and just random nonsense on /b/, and nazis, hate speech, antisemitism, racism, etc on /pol/ and that's just 3 of the boards.

Fake : anon is a woman
Gay : buying flowers for your husband
Finally, good friends that give good advice instead of trying to ruin the relationship
Fake: Anon is a woman
Fake: Anon has a husband
Gay: Anon fantasises about having a husband
She should both work on showing her appreciation and tell him that he is the light of her life. He deserves to know right away and then see that reflected in her change in behavior- she might not be doing enough right now, but that doesn't mean she can't in time. Always strive to be better for the people that matter to you!
You can tell a real woman wrote this because of how much yapping she does.
All jokes aside, I'm actually really proud of her for making changes in her relationship and her behavior. This post was really heartwarming.
one of the few 4chan posts that actually seems legit
They simply have different love languages. But they should definitely talk more about this.
Surf Wisely.
When someone goes above and beyond for you all the time, it eventually becomes routine and doesn't feel special anymore, and people tend to forget that their significant other does a lot for them. When I was married, I used to write my wife romantic letters and get her favorite flowers, and she was ecstatic at first, but eventually she barely reacted and didn't really seem to care. Unsurprisingly, she filed for divorce after she found someone else.
This is what happens when you didn't have to developed any game because options come to you, you turn into the prize in your head and don't reciprocate.
Awwww that’s so adorable! If this is real I hope for the best for them.
Man, is it just me who thinks getting flowers would be embarrassing as a man?
Definitely just you. I’d love to get flowers from my wife/GF. It’s not about the flowers but the gesture
it's weird, a coffee mug or something of the sort would be much better.
Fake: Anon isn't a woman.
Gay: Anon is married to a man.
Of all the things that never happened this never happened the most
Quietly work on being better, men in general don’t value words, they value actions.
My brain refused to call this as a fake, because she said her husband crying profusely.
No man would make a fake story about a man crying excessively.
Worst case, it's written by divorced woman
> adult woman with children
> posting on a Chinese basket weaving message board
Pick one
You're probably right, but don't underestimate the number of female degens that have risen up in recent years. And guess what: a lot of them originally started on 4chan, and occasionally still go there.
What kind of man likes daisies. Gay.
He owns a vase. Fake.
Fake: Anon has a husband. Gay: Anon has a husband.
First two comments I saw:
1. That was typed by a man, so fake.
2. That sounds so like women, so real.
Funniest shit on the internet.
"Should I talk to him about it?"
If the story is to be believed, the man has just openly cried in front of you at being given the gift of flowers. Think that's a good signal that, yes, you should talk to him about it.
That's not because of the flowers nor the (accurate) sentiment that men only get flowers at our funerals.
It was because being given 'a gift' (after probably being the giver of gifts for years by this point), means that some of these feelings we never express ('Does she still love me?' BAD, YOU'RE NOT NEEDY ARE YOU?!) have been implicitly answered through a gift that, normally, he would be responsible for.
A woman admitting she was wrong lol 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Women make such good comedians.
She's going to keep being selfish. Maybe she tries for a bit but she will go right back to taking him for granted. She needs therapy.
def should feel guilty. see how she wrote "I've been caught up in the daily grind of life to realize just how much he's doing for me" def her friends are right lmao. You don't deserve him do better
Women so often take men for granted -- but a little bit of gratitude can go a long, long way.
This woman went 35 years without ever considering, for one minute "huh maybe people appreciate reciprocation?"
And that is young women in a nutshell. Giving a woman flowers or compliments is like giving a glass of water to a drowning person. Giving a man flowers or compliments is giving that same glass of water to someone stranded in the desert. Except the drowning women will still complain that men aren't there rescuing them, while also choosing a bear over men to rescue them.
It blows me away that anyone could be THIS OBLIVIOUS.
This is a lesbian story. If it was for actual man he would look confused about flowers and ask "what should I do with them?". Men usually get happy from whiskey, beer or some toys/hobby appliances.
This lady doesn't seem to grasp that her husband is so overjoyed of the bouquet exactly because she almost never does these things. She, on the other hand, does get such affections whole the time it seems, which sadly has watered the experience. Her person seems not that romantic either. Sad irony is that the partner who appreciates these gestures is more disposed to make them and vice versa.
As to fixing the issue, Meister Eckhart once said it well: "truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us." That is, if she knows she's been a bad wife, she's already a better one.
I feel like i myself would be like this woman. Not that if want to, it's just the way I'd likely handle and react to things.
if you're in simmilar situation to this do BOTH. Dont just try to improve. And dont just talk to them about those feelings.
DO both. Talk to them about it and THEN prove you care by trying to improve.
Bro was so starved he prolly thought she was about to leave him or smth; also we need to teach women how to greentext
There's nothing wrong with trying to be a better wife. But her husband sounds like a wuss to be honest, which is why she doesn't have the drive to be romantic.
I saw the problem instantly.
She didn't talk to her husband about it. "For days I keep thinking about it." Huge mistake.
Bro I’m crying now
Always speak your mind, going silent is never the best option. For fuck sake.
Realizes that shes the problem - still dont do anything about it.
4:27 what you really need to do is give your husband that hawk tuah
Femanon, you need to talk to him about what you're feeling, you're likely overthinking things and the fact you're thinking about this doesn't make you a bad wife.
She is a bad wife
But she has the opportunnity to change things
men are getting flowers now wtf come on guys
Pretty sure this is an a post because it sounds like a redit story
Why did she put the quotation marks on "I "love" him"
Its not quotes, its ***, used to bold letters on different platforms, like *this*
They're not quotation marks
0 percent that this happened and a man wrote this
from the series communication in a relationship doesn't work
Honestly good for her if true, she took the most important step.
Actually I think I remember the follow up on amitheah, where she cheated on him
Wtf, a friend group with positive influence???
There's no way this shit comes from 4chan
You don't know 4chan
Anything can come from 4chan...ANYTHING.
4chan is a collective of ppl from all walks of life and all circumstances. The story is obv fake and gay, but you see things like this from time to time on there. Plus 4chan is like 30 different message boards about various topics/interests. Most 4channers only browse a couple boards. I've only been on like 4 boards total since I was a kid. So you can get anything from bro's giving hyping you up and giving you life and exercise advice on /fit/, gore, memes, prons, feels threads and just random nonsense on /b/, and nazis, hate speech, antisemitism, racism, etc on /pol/ and that's just 3 of the boards.
A woman bought flowers for her man? Who wrote this, CNN?
She’s not a bad wife
She is
@ because?
She was a lackluster wife 🤣
I'm sure this happened
Fake Anon isn't married Gay - what dude cries over flowers?
the kiwi accent sounds good
Me think fem anon is on the spectrum or just super lazy
Nah, some people just aren’t overly romantic. These two were just very opposite in how they express love.
