盘点老公送的最差劲礼物

A mother who was left cold after receiving an 'unwrapped' box of chocolates for her birthday has urged other women to share their worst present horror stories.
一位妈妈在生日当天收到一盒“拆开的”巧克力作为礼物，感觉倍受冷落。她呼吁其它女性讲出自己收到糟糕礼物的痛苦经历。

Responses ranged from stuffed penguins to Hollyoaks calendars after Mumsnet user Liz70 told how she had spent her big day 'running around after other people' - and when her husband returned home from a work meet-up he presented her with 'small bag of Thornton's chocolates'.
回复中，收到的礼物从毛绒企鹅到圣橡镇少年日历五花八门。英国育儿交流社区Mumsnet网站一位用户名为Liz70的网友说，她生日那天还“在人群里东奔西跑”，而丈夫从工作聚会回到家后居然就给了她“一小袋Thornton巧克力”。

She said the gesture had left her feeling 'undervalued and underappreciated', adding: 'I did ask if he'd also brought a bunch of flowers from a petrol station, to complete the whole "will this do?" vibe.'
Liz70说这种姿态让她觉得自己“不被丈夫重视，没有被宠爱”，“我还问他有没有从加油站带一束花回来，让他知道‘难道这样就行啦？’。”

She added that she didn't feel she was 'particularly materialistic' and that the couple have 'no mortgage and a comfortable amount of savings'. She had never demanded designer handbags or diamond jewellery.
她还说，她认为自己不是“那么物质”的人，他们夫妻两个“没有房贷，有一笔说得过去的生活积蓄”。她从来没有要过名牌手袋或钻石珠宝。

In a bid for moral support, Liz70 decided to start a 'sh*t birthday present from DH [darling husband] thread' - and they poured in thick and fast, with more than 400 responses.
为了寻求精神支持，Liz70决定发起一个“来自亲爱丈夫的糟糕生日礼物话题”，响应者源源不断，有400多位网友进行了回复。

Huskylover1 rushed to her defence, calling her husband's behaviour 'absolutely s***'. She wrote: 'I'd be blanking him until he grovels.' Another Mumsnetter agreed, urging her to speak to her husband about it 'rather than just seethe quietly'.
Huskylover1叫嚷着丈夫的行为“简直过分”，迫不及待地要替自己出气。她回复道：“我会一直晾着他直到他跪地求饶。”另一位用户十分赞同，建议她跟丈夫说出来，“而不是把火气憋在心里”。

A user known as Minkybinkyboo revealed that her husband had bought her a harmonica and a Miranda Hart maracas-themed exercise DVD one Christmas - while she was heavily pregnant. 'It's still in the plastic,' she added.

Few women could be as unimpressed as the one who received a set of Andy and Lou figurines from Little Britain from her spouse.
从丈夫那里收到《小不列颠》里的安迪和卢的人物塑像，想必没几个女人能印象不深吧。

One of the more toe-curling stories came from Hungryhippo90, whose then-boyfriend promised to buy her a Louis Vuitton purse.
Hungryhippo90讲述了一个更为尴尬的经历，她当时的男朋友许诺要给她买个路易威登的手包。

After taking her to a Louis Vuitton shop, she recalled, he showed her an expensive bag on display - before going on to tell her that he couldn't afford it.
她回忆道，当时男朋友带她去了一家路易威登专卖店，给她看了陈列着的一个昂贵的包包，然后说他买不起。

'So why?!' she wrote. 'I wouldn't mind, but he had £4,000 in the bank at the time.'
“那为什么还要给我看呢？！”她写道。“一个包我不介意，但他当时有4000英镑的存款啊。”
