Today, my girlfriend and I decided to exchange presents for our birthdays. I spent $100 on perfume and Victoria's Secret clothes. She bought me a bag of lifesavers, then asked me to leave because she wanted to take a nap. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my girlfriend came home and announced that she'd just bought a $40 pair of flipflops. She then declared that I wouldn't be getting a birthday gift this year due to budget shortfalls. For hers a month prior, I'd got her a $300 piece of jewelry. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went to his best friend’s birthday party. He got her red roses, a necklace and $100 Victoria’s Secret Gift Card. This year he forgot my birthday, gave me a hug and told me to leave his apartment because he had homework to do. We’ve been together for two years. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me a $100 gift card for Victoria's Secret. Suspicious, I checked the receipt he'd left in the bag. Turns out he had bought it during the two weeks we were broken up for some other girl who rejected him, so decided to give it to me instead. FML
Today, my girlfriend is locked in the bathroom crying because I didn't buy her anything for Valentine's Day, even though Friday, at her suggestion, we agreed not to exchange gifts because both of our birthdays are a week away. FML
Today, my girlfriend bought herself a brand new iPad and iPod Touch, and returned my aging iPod and Kindle, which she constantly steals for her own use. She considers it my Valentine's Day present. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me lingerie from Victoria's Secret. He then added that his mother picked it out. 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, because it was our first Christmas as a couple, I was careful to get my girlfriend what I considered to be a very thoughtful gift. She opened it, took one look at it, made a face like I'd just kicked a puppy, and told me that in future it would be better if I just gave her money so she could buy her own presents. FML
Today, after buying my girlfriend an expensive gift for her birthday, cooking her breakfast in bed, and treating her all day ending with dinner and cake at her parents, she burst into tears and said the whole day was ruined. Why? I forgot to buy her a birthday card. FML
Today, I thought it would be nice to take my girlfriend out to a nice restaurant for my birthday. She got a little headache after we ordered, so she went outside to get some air. I ate a $100 meal and had Happy Birthday sang to me by the restaurant staff. Alone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Imagine if the genders were reversed here? I mean, people are pissed now, but there'd be an epic thousand-comment ****storm going on in here if a guy was the culprit in this FML.

i would've said, "napping is more fun with two people" then the hoe could've paid you back with something else ;) haha that really does suck, i always spend a nice amount of dough for my boyfriends gift, i think she could've spent more or wrote you something really sweet. i mean after all it is the thought that counts... but life savers..? like really. i'd like to meet her.

Um, wow. #42 was a bit ridiculous. Anyways, maybe you two should have discussed how much to sepnd beforehand. On accident I bought too much stuff for my boyfriend on Valentine's Day when all he got me was circus peanuts. Take something back. I have to admit she was alittle shitty about only spending like $3 on a birthday gift though. Some girls are bitchy like that.

#45 - please explain how I am ridiculous? Is it not truthful and honest?

# 47 - Because the bf is thinking of the gf and gets her stuff that's got a bit more meaning that a bag of frigging candy. How would you feel if you got a pack of tic tacs for your birthday? Lingerie says "i think you're beautiful". Tic Tacs say "your breath stinks".

Honestly I'd prefer tic tacs over lingerie and perfume. And by your logic isn't perfume saying "you stink" ? He got her gift he'd enjoy if she had on. She bought him something he'd like.

Lmao #49. Yeah, you'd love it if you spent time and money to get a thoughtful gift for your boyfriend and he gave you a something he got at a gas station and then kicked you out. *~*~you're so hardxcore~*~*~
