Happy anniversary, Honey!

Today, it was my boyfriend and mine's 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 did 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.

What's so special about a six month anniversary? When it hits a year, then it actually matters.

What's the big deal.... if you don't like the colour ask him if he kept the receipt, guys don't get offended. He'll probably be a little embarrassed though so when you get to a year, expect a cheque in an envelope, that way you can get whatever you like! Awesome, huh? ;-)

You are an idiot for celebrating a 6 month anniversary. The definition of anniversary is ONCE A YEAR. This means that it does not even exist at the six month mark. Your boyfriend did nothing wrong since there was nothing to celebrate. You went out and bought an expensive watch as a gift, but it was NOT an anniversary gift, unless you gave him your 1 year anniversary gift 6 months early. It's either that or you screwed yourself and not will still need to get him something for the actual, real anniversary. I guess the watch does make a nice "just because I can gift", but that means that the actual anniversary present should be even bigger and better or you will look lame. A total YDI for celebrating something that does not exist. Why not celebrate something else stupid like your 4500 hour anniversary? Here is a hint, it is coming up soon!

Oh, STFU, you sound like some loveless bitch. So they wanted to celebrate being together 6 months, get the **** over it. She doesn't deserve it for that, plenty of people do it. When you're in love (which it seems like you've never been, ely46) everyday is a celebration, so why not celebrate? And you also suck for saying she will look lame if she doesn't have a "bigger and better" gift for the regular anniversary. If they both love each other as much as she says they do, do you really think it matters? I think, really, she wouldn't have minded not getting a gift, but the condom thing is just a lame joke. It's ok, my 6 month was 2 days before Halloween, and since he was going to be gone then we went trick-or-treating and when we got back to his place he got into a fight with his parents on the phone the whole time I was there xD There's always your regular anniversary

27 -Doesn't deserve what? Not getting a gift for an occasion most people wouldn't celebrate? You sound like a loveless bitch for thinking gifts and meaningless celebrations are what's important.

Some guys' idea of a celebration is sex. He did want to celebrate, hence the condoms q:

One month? You complain about your birthday and valentine's day... and you top that list off with "He didn't get me a gift when we'd had thirty days together"? If a girl insisted I take her somewhere special for weekaversaries and monthaversaries, I would strongly consider finding someone else. That's a pretty strong indicator that the girl is freakin' nuts, and I just don't need that many cats in my house.

No one cares. You just sound like a desperate pre-teen.

From the sound of it both Valentine's and your birthday fell within that first month of dating. I wouldn't break the bank to buy something for a girl I've only been seeing a few days/weeks. It's too short of a period of time to know if it will even last another week. He should have at least mentioned "Happy ___ Day" and bought you a Snickers bar or something though.

Does the gift matter THAT much? : I mean, if you love the other person, why would a gift be THAT important to you? He did at least get you something, -condoms- But at least he remembered!

My first boyfriend got me nothing for valentines day. I'd bought him some cute stuff. It would have been fine if he hadn't sulked the whole day because he felt bad...

Only six months. Mm, not a big deal... now years; those are the milestones you're looking for.

YDI for not knowing what "anniversary" means. I'll give you a hint: the first part of the word comes from the Latin 'annus' which means 'year'.
