Oh. Another thing I forgot to mention about the storm trooper hoodie steal my thunder guy? He also has bought things from my amazon wishlist for himself. So the item is no longer on my wishlist and comes up as purchased but I never recieve it. I just see him wearing it to work. WTF.
I’m just so cool I guess.
There’s just some things I can’t get over. It’s terrible and it makes me feel like a complete bitch. But here’s how the story goes:
Lyndon found a perfect present for me online. It was currently on back order from this website. But he placed the order for me told me he got a ‘surprise’ for me. I guessed what he had purchased and got super excited. He bought me a marc ecko star wars storm trooper hoodie. Storm troopers have become our thing. He worked on a year and made both of our storm trooper costumes that we wore for our halloween wedding reception costume party. I adore storm troopers. I was so excited I showed my friends at work. ‘Look! Lyndon just got this for me!! I’m so excited!’. This was a Friday. The following day, ‘friend’ from work called me up to tell me they had the storm trooper hoodies at the mall he was just at and he bought one for himself. I was deflated. How was I supposed to wait a few weeks to receive my very special, thoughtful gift from Lyndon? How was I supposed to look at someone else wearing my gift? Yes, this ‘friend’ likes star wars as well but still… I asked Lyndon to cancel the order. Because now everytime I see it – I will feel betrayed. I realize that there’s lots of people that own this hoodie. But this feels personal. In the end it’s my own fault. My fault for getting so excited and sharing the news with my ‘friends’. I know better now.
Am I crazy? Everytime he wears it to work, I’m reminded of what happened. I feel angry. I can’t bear to even talk to him. I have already lost respect for him (due to a number of other things). I need to get over this but it ruins my day.
