Many women may not be appreciated by their partners, no matter what they do. This was happening to a Colorado woman’s kind neighbor, who only wanted one thing for Christmas: a cake mixer. The woman, named Anita, shared that her neighbor is hardworking and does her best to take care of her son, who is on the spectrum. Unfortunately, the father of her son isn’t exactly kind to her, which is why the neighbor was left surprised when he asked her what she wanted for Christmas. Of course, she got excited and told him about the cake mixer. She even saw that it was on sale and shared the happy news with him. She didn’t get the reaction she hoped for.
Rather than keeping his promise, the father told her he spoke with his mom, who believed she didn’t need a mixer. They wanted to give her a hand mixer instead because it was cheaper. To make things worse, he told her, “It’s not like you need anything special anyway.” Despite this heartbreaking situation, Anita shared that her neighbor still came over to give her a stocking she had crocheted for her dog. She shared a video of this interaction, and you could see how emotional the neighbor was. That was when the woman came up with an idea: to ask the internet for help.
Anita posted a GoFundMe after many people offered to help make her neighbor’s dream come true. In less than two days, they managed to gather enough money to buy her the mixer. With everyone invested, the Colorado woman shared a video of when she surprised her neighbor with the mixer. The heartwarming video showed the neighbor’s shock as she opened up her surprise and saw the mixer. She didn’t hesitate to hug her friend and thank her for what she did. “You are so good to me,” she told her through tears. It might be a small gift, but it could change her life. She plans to use the mixer to make recipes and start a small business so she can help her family. No one should feel like they don’t deserve something nice for Christmas.

Another person was happy that there were still good people out there as they said, “I love this so much. It’s so good to know there are still such good people in this world.” One woman also shared her own experience and that life gets better. “You found each other for a reason, this is it. I was in her shoes once upon a time, it gets better. From an autism mama of 3, & divorced from my crappy husband, good days are coming,” she wrote.
Aside from the heartwarming comments, many people criticized the neighbor’s partner. “He talked to his mother about his wife gift and they decided she didn’t need it that’s nightmarish. I hope 2026 come in couple therapy or divorce,” one person wrote. Another person asked, “Can we also raise funds to get her a lawyer to divorce the loser?” Someone else also added, “She really needs to leave him. I know its easier said than done. But she will continue to suffer even with the mixer. She absolutely deserves one though dont get me wrong! I hope she gets one & gets a lot of pleasure out of it.” Hopefully, her life will only get better from now on.
