BZBrainz, My spouse delights me. I've been rumbling this week as we get ready for a move and swamped by shame for my reactions—I hate feeling out of control.
They gave me a gift. I did not respond to the gift, felt awful for not acknowledging it, and then excessively apologized.
Spouse: "I never expect you to be excited about chocolate. If it were an appropriately shaped Reese's, that would be a whole different story."
