Today, my boyfriend came over with a broken engraved bracelet that I paid 50 dollars for. I was so angry but when I stated "I am going to call them and get a new one!" my boyfriend said back to me "No it's okay, I didn't really like it anyways." It was for our 2 year anniversary. FML

Today, my boyfriend bought me an engagement ring. It turned out to be the wrong size and we had to return it, since the store said it couldn't be re-sized. As we headed home, I felt guilty, so I turned to him and apologized. His response? "It's OK honey, I didn't really want to marry you that much anyway." FML

Today, I went to Tiffany's to exchange a bracelet my boyfriend had given me for our year anniversary. It was the first gift that he actually spent money on me for. The sales lady then told me that the bracelet was not a real Tiffany's item. 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, my boyfriend of 3 years donated his promise ring at the temple for it to be used to construct the idol's feet. The problem is that I made that ring for him from scratch and he didn’t even have it for 2 months. He was excited when he told me, and doesn’t understand why I’m upset. FML

Today, my boyfriend told me he'd drive me to the jeweler's to pick out a ring. We drove there, I picked the ring, and the sales person rang it up. I glanced at my boyfriend, only for him to reply, "Well don't look at me!" FML

Today, I found out that my boyfriend wrote 50 dollars on my gift card just to look generous, it's really only worth five. I found this out after I tried to buy an arm full of clothes. FML

Today, my boyfriend of 2 years took me to get a tattoo done with his name on. He paid for it. After it was done he told me it was over between us and he thought it'd be a nice reminder of him for me. FML

Today, my boyfriend gave me a fancy chocolate candy and I got angry at him for forgetting that I'm allergic to chocolate and threw the candy into the garbage disposal. Turns out, he had spent a ton of money getting a chocolatier to put an engagement ring inside the candy that I just destroyed. FML

Some guys aren't into wearing bracelets and such. You should already know by now what he likes and doesn't like.

I find all the comments about how guys don't like bracelets interesting. It is totally possible to get bracelets that aren't effeminate looking, and there are non-gay guys who like them. I bought my sweetheart an engraved bracelet. But it's very rustic looking, made from leather and copper. He wears it all the time. He also wears a blue bracelet that was mine, that I happened to put on his wrist one day. So bracelets are a viable gift for some guys! OP obviously didn't understand her guy was one of those who would wear bracelets, or she didn't spend any time looking for one that was right for him. Also, YDI OP, just for being dramatic enough to post this on FML.

Who cares? Like yeah it might hurt your feeling due to the sentimental value it holds, but it sounds like he still wore it which mean he did that for you. I always tell my sig other if I ever buy something you don't like just return and get yourself something you do. Stupid to waste money on gifts you don't like! Idc there happy I'm happy its all good dont worry about it too much O.P.

I'd be happy that he wore it at all. Most men don't like bracelets, he didn't like that bracelet but wore it because of how much you (and your relationship) mean to him. Next anniversary ask him what he would like, and he'll wear it even more! Good luck, OP!
