Today, after buying my girlfriend a $700 bracelet for Christmas, I hinted that I wanted a pair of Oakleys. She told me I shouldn't get her anything and that I should expect even less. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I bought my girlfriend a very expensive necklace. I gave it to her thinking she'd be extremely happy. Instead she was mad at me because my gift for our anniversary was better than hers. FML
Today, my girlfriend came home and announced that she'd just bought a $40 pair of flipflops. She then declared that I wouldn't be getting a birthday gift this year due to budget shortfalls. For hers a month prior, I'd got her a $300 piece of jewelry. FML
Today, because it was our first Christmas as a couple, I was careful to get my girlfriend what I considered to be a very thoughtful gift. She opened it, took one look at it, made a face like I'd just kicked a puppy, and told me that in future it would be better if I just gave her money so she could buy her own presents. FML
Today, I had a very long, complicated talk with my girlfriend. Apparently, since she isn't religious, she doesn't have to give anyone Christmas presents, and yet expects everyone to give her some. She then told me what I should get her. FML
Today, I asked my girlfriend about a diamond necklace I bought her for her birthday, which she didn't seem to be wearing. She then told me she hocked it to pay for her inexpensive phone bill. I paid $1,500 for that necklace, she received $300 from the pawn shop. FML
Today, I gave my wife a $900 necklace as a special Christmas gift. She gave me a set of Star Wars pajamas. As it turns out, I was more excited to wear my gift than she was to wear hers. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of 5 years. She bitched me out for not getting the ring she had been "hinting" me to get, and angrily left. FML
Today, I received a pair of earrings, a necklace, and some rings as a Christmas gift from my grandma. This would have been nice if I weren't a guy. This is her way of mocking me for wearing what she calls "girl colors", such as white. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She said yes, but the ring turned out to be quite tight on her finger. She then chewed me out, saying that I can't do anything right, then changed her answer to no. FML

hahaha! You deserve it for thinking she is obliged to get you an expensive present just because you got her an expensive one.

Christmas is about giving, not getting. Try not to be selfish.

ydi for expecting something back. If you love her, accept that she's broke and dazzle her with the bracelet come christmas time.

ydi for buying a bracelet that expensive, unless you are on some insanely high wage. I'd be mad if my husband spent $700 on a bracelet, even if it was for me. So many better things to spend $700 on.

Ydi for wasting 700 on a fricken bracelet AND for wanting oakleys... And even more for expecting a lot from your girlfriend just because you're stupid and spent too much.. Asshole..

well some girls say to so they don't seem material or needy. they don't want to ask for things and make there boyfriend feel like hes expected to buy them things, but it is christmas. she might of been trying to be nice but obviously she knows your going to get her something anyways, and if you didn't she'd be pissed. girls think there oblgated to say something like that to be nice, but expect you to know she means the opposite. it is your fault tho for no discussing christmas presents with her before you decided to go out and splurge on some braclet without asking her about exchanging gifts first. on the other hand she could just be a greedy self obsorbed bitch and just be to lazy to buy her ( obv nice) boyfriend a ******* christmas gift. in my opinion return the gift and get her something non-expensive and otherwise lame compared to the braclet and say "oh ya i had bought you a 700$ braclet but after you said you didn't want anything i returned it. i thought you would at least want something so i bought you ______ (insert lame gift here ) instead". that will teach her to stop using code and just say what she actually means. and if she was just trying to be a bitch but not putting an effort on your gift? well this works both ways.

Return it and dump her. Tell her what you bought her and say "And if you hadn't been a bitch about it, it would have been yours, but instead, not only are you not getting it, but I want you to get your shit and get out."

Dude, Oakley cost way more than an Bracelets. <Owns an $700 glasses, $400 sunglasses (customized). Could've brought yourself a new Oakley stuff, and paid less for her, and accepertince her as your gift. But don't take her for granted. YDI, for not knowing her personality.

@#149 kinda weird discussing over buying a present for your loved one when its chrismas dont you think? Either your broke or creedy not buying a present for your boy/girl friend, this guy did good although $700 is kinda weird expensive for a christmas gift, maybe he had a good reason buying and giving it to her. I think his girlfriend doenst love him and she doenst want to spend any money on him because she gonna buy herself a new outfit and have some fun with other guys...
