ok people i need some opinions..?


Question:
My wife went out to pay some bills and go shopping with my sister in law today. they went to the mall.. well after shopping for a bit my wife grabbed her purse and went to the restroom. the only problym is that when she left the restroom she left her purse. ok heres where my question comes in.. some one picked up her purse and took off with it. so everything we had money wise is gone. flat broke no big deal i can make more money..
social security cards gone. no big deal can get new ones.
drivers licence gone .. same there.
keys same here.
but there was one thing that was irriplacible. she had a 1981 half dollar in her purse that her dad gave her when he addopted her in her purse. well i was collecting change and there was another 1981 half sitting there. i told her that it was the one that her dad gave her and that i picked it up yesterday when my 1 year old spilt her purse. she was so happy and excited that she still had it.

Is this wrong? it means so much to her?

Answers:
Not at all. It sounds like you're a level headed person, and that you really love your wife and want her to be happy. You've done so much more than others in your position might do. If I'd had a hat on, I'd tip it to you! You're a class act!

Other Answers:
I think it is a very sweet gesture.

well if she reads this - you may be on your way to a divorce! well, hope the store doesnt call that they found her purse and its in it. otherwise, no i dont think it is wrong. probably makes her feel alot better considering what happened.


No. Just let her think it is the same one. It will make her feel better.


nope, you were very kind to do that. very nice of you..you love her, don't you? But all that identity is a very big think. someone has your keys, your address, your drivers lic. number, perhaps bank account number by now.are you kidding..this is a very big thing..your house will be robbed next! Hopefully, you won't be home!

Sometimes white lies are good to spare people. I don't think it's a bad thing. Maybe if she finds out. If u tell her now the consequences won't be as bad as if u wait 2 tell her and she finds out somehow.


Maybe it was the same one. For all you know it could be. What's the harm in letting her think she still has it?


I think you're a great husband for doing that - you just want to make her happy - way to go! I don't think it's wrong.

No.. If it makes her happy thats all that matters. What bad luck! No. I don't think so. But you may be in trouble if the purse might be returned. If you will be, you should apologize to her and tell her that you meant well, and you didn't want her to be sad for even a minute.
Good luck.


Her fault.

But, you're a superhero!!


NO!
If it makes her happy.
That's sweet!


Be honest with her. Tell her what you said here. Tell her you were trying to be thoughtful and you found another one to replace it. You will then feel better because this is obviously bothering you that you confessed it here. She has a right to know. Good luck. no this is not wrong sentimental value is worth a lot more than money,cards etc


No I don't think it is wrong when you were doing it all for the right reasons.It shows you love her and would do anything for her! Good on you!! If you ever do recover the missing one, try and swap it!! Your heart was in the right place!


I think your stickin it to the man here. I can see where you would feel guilty, people will probably go both ways. I think you should feel some guilt but not a lot. She's still content and not angry so that should make you kinda happy.

NO, but you'd best be good at not accidently slipping up and telling her the truth later. you should tell her the turth or you take that secret to the grave with you.


dont tell her, its the memories that count not the half dollar itself, and if you tell her that its not the real one then the memories wont be as sweet.


I think it was sweet, too.

you should never lie to your wife. although she may never find out. someday she might and be very upset because she was mislead I think that was the sweetest thing you could have done. I really wouldn't think it was wrong, and if I were in your wifes place, and accidently found out, then I would love him even more for caring that much to do it.


She's sentimental! And you're very sweet!


Gee, i hope she doesn't see this question posted on here. because it think that was a really sweet thing you did. her happiness lies in the memory, not the object.

no makeing people is never wrong
