H took me out to dinner for my birthday.

What I don't get with him, he asked me where I wanted my cake purchased from and what I wanted for my birthday. I told him where to get the cake and he said no problem. Then I texted him a picture of what I wanted for my birthday and where to get it. It was just a pair of slippers. And he replie back and said consider them mine.

Well, he didn't get me a cake or a birthday present. I just don't get it. Why bother asking if you are not going to follow thru with it.

How do I handle this? Do I say anything or let it go. He was like this during our marriage. And if I say anything, how do I say it?

Any thoughts?
