It's the thought that counts

Today, I woke up and my husband said he got me a gift for our one year anniversary and that it was on the table. We laid around cuddling and when I finally got up I was expecting to walk out to beautiful bouquet of flowers. I got two packs of cigarettes. FML

Hey, he's trying to make you happy. I mean if he got flowers they might outlive you.

I think it's kinda clever that he would twist the whole "paper" thing and get you cigarettes. But if I were a woman I would want something more romantic than that. Like someone said, romantic doesn't always equal practical... but he still should have known you well enough not to do that. And about the smoking argument. We all have the freedom to do what we want to do. No one can tell me/her/anyone else not to smoke if it's their choice to do so or not. Even if it hurts us, some of us need that momentary "smoke break" to gather our thoughts. Some of us enjoy the finer things and smoke pipes. I for one love a good smoke with a friend. Cigars FTW!!!

Cigarettes are nasty. That said, what a shitty gift.

what is the matter with you? if you smoke then its a better gift than flowers, oooh flowers they are so beautiful...can you smoke them? Are they useful in any way? Seriously would ONE woman tell me why flowers are so damn magical to them?

must have had a reason to give you that didn't he.

Wow, I thought it was pretty clear that cigarettes are not a good gift...for anyone...especially your wife/girlfriend....and for your anniversary... And it's not being spoiled if the OP thought her husband should be a little more romantic for their first anniversary. And I love #90 lol

If you would just kick the habit and quit smoking then giving you cigarettes as a gift wouldn't even be an option... write that down

Who cares? You got your cigarettes and nasty addicting habit. I bet you smoked them too right after submitting this.
