Birthdays are a time for celebration and surprises, but sometimes, even the best-laid plans can go awry. A wife (30F) thought she had found the perfect gift for her husband (32M) after he had been dropping hints about desperately needing a massage. She booked him a 1-hour deep tissue massage with a reputed therapist, excited about her thoughtful gift. But when she revealed the surprise, her husband’s reaction left her absolutely fuming and questioning whether she was in the wrong.

The Massage Gift Debacle: Who’s in the Wrong? ‍♀️

After her husband dropped hints about wanting a massage, a wife booked him a deep tissue massage for his birthday. But when she revealed the surprise, he got angry and accused her of ruining his day. She confronted him, and he admitted he didn’t like that she had already booked the appointment, as he needed to be in control of his social interactions. He also said a massage wasn’t a big enough gift and wanted something material like a massage gun. She tried to make amends with apology gifts, but he remained upset. Was she in the wrong, or is her husband being ungrateful? Let’s see what the internet has to say…
