thank you <blows you a kiss>
*blushes* Thank you beautiful <blows a kiss back to you> Hope you're having a wonderful weekend and hope to see you soon.
 
Someone I know at work, a really great woman, asked her husband for a new dishwasher as a gift. Now, to me, this seems a bit impersonal, but my acquaintance is thrilled with her present.

So: Household appliances as gifts. Thoughtful? Or knell of doom? Discuss.


P.S. I'm putting this here because it seems too trivial even for a Darkroom thread.
 
Unless they can be used for sexual exploration, appliances should never be used as gifts. Too impersonal for my taste.

Plus, when I need an appliance, I need it now! Not on my b-day lol.

That would only be a small part of her gift

Hi, Monique. I would never--ever--give a household appliance as a gift to an SO. If she requested it, I'd try to get it in writing so she couldn't use this on me later. :rolleyes:

I hope you're having a good day, my dear. :)

Okay, assume the old appliance works well enough, but the new one would have more features and so on.

Purfecthost -- an appliance as part of a gift seems okay, true....

It's been good. I've spent most of it working in the garden.

The thing is, in this case, she requested it! I was disbelieving when she told me, but she was smiling and happy about her great new dishwasher.

Perhaps it could be used for sex .......

Jean and I had a roll around portable once in our first small house and it vibrated just right :eek:

Haha. I don't think this one is being used for sex, but who knows.

I think the part that seemed oddest to me about this was the assumption --shared by both people in the marriage under discussion -- that washing dishes was entirely her responsibility, and so an appliance that would make washing dishes easier was something that would benefit her as directly as a more personal gift would.

Sounds to me like she may be in true need of another type of "appliance" :cool:

Because women who enjoy fulfilling traditional gender roles don't get enough sex? <puzzled>

Welcome to the thread, btw. There are pictures up at the front.
