Today, for our 2-year anniversary, I bought my girlfriend a beautiful $400 necklace. She bought me a pink $5 shirt of Elton John riding a piano through space. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, I gave a girl I like a $200 diamond necklace to express how much she means to me. She gave me a hug and told me she didn't want to lose me as a friend. Nor did she want to lose her new necklace. Today, I got a $200 hug. 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, my husband bought me a beautiful pair of earrings for my birthday, to match the necklace he'd spent months searching for online the previous year. What necklace? He gave me a watch he found at Walmart last year. I wonder who the lucky girl with the necklace is. 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 bought my boyfriend a gold watch for our 2 year anniversary. He bought me a jar of Nutella. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out for dinner to a fancy Italian restaurant for our one year anniversary. After giving her some roses, freshly baked cookies, and a thoughtful poem I wrote for her, she started laughing and asked for her real gift. FML
Today, it was my girlfriend's birthday, so I decided to take her to a fancy restaurant and give her an expensive $400 necklace that I had bought. Being traditional, I asked the waiter to arrange it nicely on the tray when he came with our dessert. Neither he nor the necklace ever showed up. FML
Today, I gave my girlfriend a new TV as a 10th anniversary present. She gave me a torch on a keyring. FML
Today, is my boyfriend and my 3 year anniversary. We decided to give each other something that we really needed. I bought him the $300 worth of books that he needed for college. He surprised me with a workout video and exercise equipment. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

The OP must be two years old. Only a person that young wouldn't appreciate the greatness of that shirt.

I still remember the one where some dude gave his girlfriend a toilet paper roll as an anniversary gift. If we were to base real life on FML posts, guys give way worse gifts.

I would've liked a nice diner over a $400 necklace. You can't buy love! When a man tries to buy you over with expensive gifts, RUN the other way! They're just trying to manipulate you. You want to be with the person who will ride the bus with you when your limo breaks down!

"They're just trying to manipulate you"... yeah this is an FML of it's own, you've gone out with some dickheads, some guys actually give their girlfriends expensive stuff because they care about them :-D.

I think FYL for not appreciating the awesomness of a shirt with Elton effing John riding a piano through space. Because it was $5 does not make it worth less than a necklace. Also, get used to it buddy, women are somehow excused from equal value gifting. Plus, she probably had to search high and low for a find like that.

yeah.. It's pretty inconsiderate to say that your girlfriend sucks for this. I bet she DID have to look everywhere for that! be grateful that she probably wasted hours of her time looking for that shirt for you. :P YDI for being a douche.

Are we? Well, I guess I forgot that when I was getting my SO a new computer.

You should send that shirt to me, since you seemingly don't like it. I'd kill to have that shirt.

this is why I never celebrate anniversaries. I actually always forget my wedding anniversary.

I don't know what's worse for you: that your girlfriend is a cheapskate, or that she thinks you are gay. Are you sure she knows she is your girlfriend and is not just acting out Will & Grace in real life?
