Today, it was my boyfriend and my six-month anniversary. I've really fallen in love with him, and I know he loves me the same. So I got him a really nice gift, a watch he's had his eye on for as long as I've known him. It was expensive. What does he get me? A condom. Three actually. FML

Six months and you buy him a really expensive watch?

Not very many guys think every month-iversary is particularly special, especially since a lot of girls tend to have their own 'schema' as to which ones are important and which aren't.

Besides... a condom is a sweet gift. It means he cares about you (and wants in your pants.) Don't pooh-pooh the condoms. 6 people die of the swine flu and everyone wants to wear a mask. 20 million people die of AIDS and nobody wants to wear a condom.

lol don't feel bad...my boyfriend of almost 2 years skipped the anniversary gift after i had bought him an expensive jersey of his favorite team then proceeded to tell me that he'd make it up to me for my birthday (3 months later) ...so for three months I watched him save money telling me that my birthday would be amazing...as the date rolled around...he gave me sex dice (which he lost) and balls to put on the back of my car. fml

...there's no such thing as a "six month anniversary". Just because you're silly enough to buy expensive gifts, especially on a non-occasion, doesn't mean he is. Be glad he has a good head on his shoulders :D

I agree, girls think stupid things like that are way more important than they really are...just because you were dumb enough to buy something expensive like that doesn't automatically mean you should get something expensive in return. You know what I bet he would have liked better than a watch? A *******. And that costs you nothing but your time and energy. BTW I am a girl. And YDI.

A watch is a really thoughtful gift, but a little over the top to mark 6 months with someone, don't you think? Then there's the fact that he got you condoms....if he had got you NOTHING it would have been less insulting. Unless you two had a discussion before hand establishing that you were going to purchase gifts for one another, and set a price limit, you really have no right to get upset at him for not getting you anything. But you DO have a right to get upset about the condoms. So not a cute joke.

6 month "anniversary" ? What are you like 12?

There are better men out there, OP. For example: I would have at least sprung for a whole box plus a six pack of Guinness ;)

anniversary, from the latin annus, meaning year. There is no such thing as a 6 month anniversary

YDI for expecting a gift for your six month anniversary.. It's the one year mark that's important, not the monthly anniversaries.

Your the one that says you love him pet, don't complain to us.
