Miss Earrings Makes Me Look Bad

November 7th, 2010 @ 5:45 pm by Mrs. Giraffe

Okay, so did you all read this post by Miss Earrings?

If you didn’t, here’s the abridged version: She’s super sweet and super nice and wants to get a super sweet card for Mr. E on their wedding day because she loves him and stuff.

A super sweet card like this:

See? She’s just so nice and I bet Mr. E likes to snuggle her to pieces because of it. :)

But what does it say about you when you buy your fiance this card?

Miss Earrings Makes Me Look Bad :  wedding chicago stationery Ta60  Yup, its not for our wedding, but I saw that That’s All card in the store and I it made think of Mr. Giraffe right away! So, naturally, I had to get it for Mr. G.

That image is of the flat card, but when you open it, the inside plainly reads, “That’s all.”

It’s pretty simple, and kind of exactly how I feel about Mr G. Mama Giraffe thought it was hilarious, whereas Daddy G didn’t think it was very nice. Eh, I kind of like it. :) What, am I being too honest?

Anybody else buy silly (and true!) things for their other half?

I think it’s endearing, even if it’s brutally honest! Life isn’t perfect and neither are relationships. If you can love the hell out of someone even when they’re bugging you, thats pretty much the definition of unconditional love.

I had a card that said “I love you more today than I did yesterday”…..and on the inside it says “because yesterday you really got on my nerves.”
LOL I love it, but haven’t given it to the hubs yet….waiting for after a big fight & fortunately we don’t have those very often!

It’s great. My FI and I have decided to commit to marriage, but we will NEVER have a serious relationship. We’re both goof balls.

hmm…it kind of reads like a backhanded compliment. what if guys started giving us cards that read
“I think you’re beautiful even though you’ve put on a few pounds.”

My fiance and I buy cards like these all the time! It keeps everything light because we know how much we love each other… For my birthday a few weeks ago, he gave me a card that said, (front) i’m not going to let anything get in the way of us celebrating your birthday. well, unless i get diarrhea. then i won’t be celebrating anything. (inside) happy birthday, i love you! … I was laughing for 5 min. it was so classic and so very us!

I’m definitely with the “I love the card” group, something that I will probably buy my Mr in the future.

Last Valentine’s Day card read “Even your farts are cute” which we both thought was appropriate:)

Humor is a needed ingredient to a healthy relationship in my opinion.

LMAO honesty > sweetness. Sweetness is nice, but honesty is even more important in the long run. :)
