Today, I gave my wife of four years a special anniversary gift: a red rose dipped in liquid gold so that she would cherish and admire it forever. She told me it was too "Italian" looking. I now have a hundred dollar rose sitting in my office. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, 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, it's my wedding anniversary; my husband forgot. My daughter gave me two beautiful long stem roses and said she would look after her sister while we went out to celebrate. My daughter is more romantic and thoughtful than my own husband. FML
Today, my wife figured out I gave her a dollar store ring for our anniversary. FML
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
Today, the attractive guy I barely speak to in my statistics class gave me a rose for Valentine's Day because he remembered they were my favorite. My husband got me a roll of quarters and told me to go buy myself "something pretty." FML
Today, I brought my girlfriend flowers. All she managed to do was to say, "It’s been a year since you brought me flowers." FML
Today, my girlfriend found an enormous rose arrangement in the back seat of my car. The flowers were from my fire chief to his wife. I forgot to deliver them. I now have to replace them since my girlfriend thinks I got them for her. The arrangement cost $225. FML
Today, my girlfriend came home with a huge bouquet of roses. They were from an admirer, brainwashing her to think I'm a terrible boyfriend for not buying her flowers like he did. FML
Today, I sent a dozen roses and a hand-written, heart-felt note to my ex-girlfriend to show her that I'm still madly in love with her. When I asked if she got the flowers I sent, she replied, "Yeah but you got the wrong color. You should've gotten yellow, that stands for friendship." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Wow, that sucks, especially since it sounds like you tried to do something special and got kicked in the teeth for it. She certainly could have been a bit more gracious in rejecting the gift and at least acknowledged that you tried. Maybe next time before an anniversary or something go shopping with her, see what sorts of things she's looking at...even if you HATE shopping. Ask her questions! I'm sure she'll share more with you about what she likes and then next time around you'll get her something she'll really enjoy!

OP - Sorry, but your wife's a bitch. What the hell kind of person, man or woman, rejects a gift like that?

By "Too Italian" she meant "too good" clearly someone is in need of a new wife.

My dear sir, it seems you have made quite the mistake. You may have to rethink being married to someone so ignorant. Italy and all that originates from the region have produced some of the most beautiful things the world has had the pleasure of viewing. Granted she may not care for things of the Italian persuasion but the fact that she had the audacity to let such nonsense pass from her brain to her lips is just pathetic and honestly I feel sorry for you.

Sorry bro, you gotta dump her. It's only going to get worse. Start planning now.

gold dipped rose??? that sounds really beautiful and thoughtful. Maybe you should talk to her about it, or to get back at her put it up in you house in a vase or something in full view of where she can see it, then she has to admire it :D good job for being a thoughtful husband!

Aww, I'm sorry, that really sucks. That's definitely one of the sweetest things I've ever heard of a guy doing for a girl. She needs to remember that not all guys are nice enough to do something like that.

What does your wife have against Italians? Is she a racist bitch or is she just stupid?
