Today, I wrapped my boyfriend's Christmas presents for him, because he was too lazy to do it himself. This included my own present. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend decided to give me my Christmas present early because he's going to his grandparents' house for Christmas and won't see me. I was excited, until I unwrapped a sweater that I left there a month ago. FML
Today, my husband still hadn't gotten me anything for Christmas, so I bought and wrapped my own presents. Then I had my husband write 'to me, from him' on them so that I won't be embarrassed in front of my family on Christmas when it comes time to open presents. FML
Today, I decorated my boyfriend's house for Christmas as a surprise, just in time for him and his family to come home. Also just in time for him to tell me he's Jewish. FML
Today, I got a phone call from my boyfriend breaking things off with me. He waited until the day after Christmas because he wanted all his presents. And he got me nothing. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I gave each other early Christmas gifts. I gave him a basketball signed by his favorite player, which took me forever to find. He got me diet pills. FML
Today, I was wrapping Christmas presents for various people; 17 to be exact. It wasn't until I placed the last present on top of the stack that I realized I didn't put gift tags on any of them. FML
Can't win
Today, my boyfriend was tidying up around the room. I asked him if he'd like me to help, to which he responded, "No, I don't need any help," then added, "Wish you weren't so lazy." FML
Today, my boyfriend decided to gift me soap, a razor, and deodorant for my birthday. FML
Alexa, play "Just Like Christmas" by Low
Today, I put Christmas wrapping on old books and things I already own, because I realized that it's the only way I'll have anything under the tree this year. FML
Commodity consumption
Today, my boyfriend helped me move some things into storage, all while complaining about the amount of stuff I own. He's the one who keeps buying me things I don't need or want, even though I tell him every year I wouldn’t mind getting no gifts at all. FML

You should return it and get something else and act surprised.

haha I never wrap gifts because I suck at it so badly. Has he never heard of a gift bag? That's what I use... they're easy and completely reusable, so much better for the environment than a pile of torn wrapping paper

So did I. And my ex's gifts too! But then, I love wrapping and have a lot of fun with it, so I end up doing it every year. My husband swears he'll wrap me something one day, because he feels awful about it, but I honestly don't mind. I know he'd do it if I didn't, but I'm much more organised than he is! :)

lol mu boyfriend helped his sister pick out my present, had her wrap it and put his name on it too. And then he picked out another gift, had her do the wrapping as well and put his name on it. All in his sisters writing. I got good gifts :) I'm happy.

At least you got a present from the one you love. I didn't get anything from my husband.

I think the big deal is that her boyfriend was too lazy to take two minutes of his time to wrap a freakin' present and made his girlfriend do it instead. I'm willing to bet he's also "too lazy" to cook his own food and clean his own home if he can't do something this simple for someone else's benefit.

My boyfriend hates the idea of Christmas so I get nothing. It makes it difficult to buy for my kids too cause he thinks it's a big waste of money. It's my money and my kids got spoiled! ;)

Well at least he got you something. But if he was too lazy to wrap he should have just hid it and give it to you without wrap that would have been ok hope it was a gift you liked tho!

The guy actually bought you a present. If he was lazy or didn't care, he wouldn't. He just, like me, doesn't get what's so important about it being wrapped, and probably sucks at it. Be glad he got you a nice present, and spent the holiday with you, and stop fussing over something small. And you didn't "have to" wrap it, because nobody forced you, you wanted it wrapped and just couldn't get anyone else to do it for you.

I've done that many times! Everyone I know hates wrapping presents, I'm the only one that will do it...
