Today, it's my birthday. My girlfriend gave me the present she'd bought for me. I said, joking, "I hope it's not a tie!" It was a tie. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it's my birthday. My girlfriend gave me a Paul Frank t-shirt. It says "I'm single." FML
Today, it's my birthday. My fiancé decided to give me the gift of "freedom." That's how he put it, anyway. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My boyfriend took me to dinner and near the end, he pulled out a long, rectangular box. Thinking it was a necklace, I got very excited. It was a wand. FML
Today, I received a birthday present from a friend. It was the very same gift I gave to her for Christmas. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My wife took me to my favorite restaurant for dinner. She made me pay for my birthday dinner, along with hers. She also got me a gift card to HER favorite store. FML
Today, it's my birthday. The present I received from my best friend was the exact same necklace which I gave to her for her birthday two months ago. It had been unwrapped and re-wrapped in the same paper. 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, I came home a day after my birthday, and was greeted by my mother who told me, "Oh, I have birthday present for you." She explained that she and my father went on a hike, and handed me my present. I got a fucking stick for my birthday. FML
Today, for my birthday, my husband gave me a dress he stole from my wardrobe. It was the one I'd bought myself on my last birthday because he forgot to buy me anything, and gave me cash in a brown envelope. Not a birthday card, a brown envelope. FML
Today, it was my girlfriend's birthday. To surprise her, I told her that I was going away on business, and could not be there on her birthday. When I show up at her house to surprise her with a present and cake, she opens the door in her underwear, beside a man in his boxers. She was surprised. FML

If it were me that this happened to, I would just tell her politely that I would not like a tie as a present. It keeps it from happening again, in any case.

Well ill be the devils advocate for a second and say this in OPs defence, that was a really bad gift from his girlfriend, she clearly doesnt care enough about her boyfriend to get him something nice or put any effort in, I mean can you imagine if it was a woman and her boyfriend bought her some hair clips or some stupid shit, this would be a non stop attack on her boyfriend, so OP you said the stupidest possible thing and your girlfriend really needs to put more effort in her gifts.

Besides, hasn't anyone told OP "don't look a gift horse in the mouth"?

This is my theory for gift giving... also a nice home made meal of their favorite food and dessert.

She gives you a gift and you immediately think tie? Does she get you a lot of ties or something?
