All you people saying at least you got a present obviously don't understand women. We don't want something that you gave your ex, we want something that you picked out for us, even if it's cheap, if you picked it out just for us it makes it extremely special and meaningful. Giving a woman something you gave your ex is basically saying we aren't special to you. FYL OP. You need to have a talk with him.

HE could have pawned it and bought her something else! I would be one pissed off white girl if I was given a gift (for my BIRTHDAY!!!) that was initially bought for and ex gf! KILL HIM!!!
