The IPad is available on pre-order from tomorrow and OH, who is a massive technology geek,has been talking about it for ages and read every review and article with excitement.
He made reference to it again when he arrived back from work, saying he was unsure about whether to order it or not.
For reasons unknown to myself, I then sold the idea to him and even handled his objections???
When we moved in together, I accepted that anything electrical was his domain and that he would probably spend sufficient finance on keeping his/our technology current. I also appreciate that he doesn't go out much or spend his money on other luxuries. When he said he wasn't sure if he would have enough money at the end of the month to cover any emergencies, I reassured him that I had spare funds and he could use my money to pay half if he wanted.
He looked chuffed, almost relieved. Perhaps he thought he would struggle to convince me that we needed an IPad but I had done all the hard work for him?
Yet I was pleased that he was pleased.
After high-fiving me in excitement, he informs me that obviously this means that he won't have enough money to buy me a birthday present (I'm 33 this month) but that we could share the IPad (even though I'm paying half anyway.)
Hmmm...It's a good job I love him!
