Speaking of relationship 1sts

We exchanged Vday gifts last night and DH bought me some lingerie...for the first time ever, especially in the 7 yrs we've been having $ex!

 I teased him that maybe now that we're married he feels more appropriate buying it?  I also teased him if he got me white since it's our first married Valentines and I'm still "bridal-y" to him? Haha...I hope my comments don't stop him from ever buying me any in the future.

 ----

So, how long into your relationship did it take DH to buy you lingerie?  Or has he not?

  • Very niiiice Hannah!  Nope, anything that I would have to wear (other than jewelry) my hubby would be completely lost at trying to buy.  If he ever did I would be floored.

  • I think Ron has only bought me lingerie once. I wanna say our first Christmas maybe.
  • haha, okay good.  Maybe it's just the movies that made me think DH's lack of buying lingerie was abnormal.

     He said he looked through my under-things drawers to figure out sizes and was also happy that I recently told my bra size (at the VS semi-annual sale in Jan I went up a size; granted I think they're sizing is WAY off there, but whatev, I'm now C there...and to be honest, I think my girls are barely a B).

  • My husband has not purchased me any lingerie yet either.  He does help me pick out pieces sometimes.  Maybe he will soon...

  • Ken has never bought lingerie.  I think if I suggested it he would try to get something to make me happy.  Since I returned one of the scarves he got me for Christmas he may not pick out anything for me to wear again (to be fair he thought it was ugly once I tried it on).

  • A smart man only buys what he knows the correct sizing for. And although my stuff is available for him to see the tags... I have yet to receive any clothing from him.

    Oh... I take that back. He bought me a fluffy, soft, warm bathrobe a few years back. But that was more out of practicality. His brother still lived in the basement, and I always walk out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel.

  • Zach has still not purchase the lingerie, but he will go so far as to peruse Victoria Secret's website and email me stuff he likes. He also begged that any of the lingerie worn on the wedding night or honeymoon only be black or red.
  • Mikie has great taste in this area!  He's picked me some beautiful pieces.  They're not the dirty-racey type, they're actually tasteful and I love them. 

    I was so worried the first time he got me an outfit.  I knew he knew my bra size, but I didn't think he'd realize that my ass needs L or XL bottoms so I pictured the cute thong squeeeeezing my hips till it popped off.. thank goodness he was a hero and got the bigger bottoms so it fit me perfectly.. pretty sure I would have died if not! 

    ETA: The first time he bought it was my first birthday with him (we were dating about 4-5 months)

  • Keith let me borrow some money a few years back because I needed a new bra.  Does that count?  LMAO

    I don't really wear lingerie, so if he bought any for me, it would be kinda weird.

  • Now that i think about it Mike has never bought me and lingerie, he helps pick stuff out when we go in to VS. and what not, but never came home with something on his own...I wouldn't mind if he did tho he has pretty good picking out skills! and knows my sizes!

    Side note- Hannah your comment on Vs bra sizing be off...yeah i have to agree with you on that...there crazy I'm normally a B and got sized there and they told me I needed a high C. I think they run small there to make the um...girls seem bigger ;)

  • I have a drawer full of lingire that have only been worn a few times. He used to buy it a lot (I would say within 1 year of having sex) as a birthday, VDay or Christmas gift, but it ended up being pretty much the only thing he would get me, so after a while I was like, okay no more lol!
