Today, my boyfriend bought me a silver necklace. I have a silver allergy, but I thanked him anyway and encouraged him to return it. I found out later that he knew about my allergy all along and bought it on purpose so he could return it, get a refund, and still look good. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, for our 8 month anniversary, my boyfriend bought me a hideous necklace with ugly charms hanging off it. I wore it anyway and got a rash from it on the side of my neck. After seeing the rash my boyfriend accused me of having a hickey from another guy and broke up with me. FML
Today, I found out that the necklace my boyfriend gave me for my birthday was actually a gift he'd given to his ex-girlfriend. 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
Today, my boyfriend told me he was taking me out to eat to his favorite restaurant. He said I could order whatever I wanted and he'd pay for it. He took me to Red Lobster, knowing full well that I'm allergic to seafood. 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 went into hysterics and started crying when my boyfriend pulled out a Tiffany's box at dinner. Then I found out he'd used the old box to make the $15 earrings he bought seem more "special." FML
Today, I found out that my ex gifted a special handcrafted necklace I made for him to his new girlfriend. She wears it on all her socials. 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 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, 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How exactly did she found out -_-
josh8215 21
This begs the question, does he know that she knows? After all, we know that she knows that he knows, but I don't know if he knows that she knows that he knows, ya know? I get paid a dollar every time I say know or knows.

Smart plus asshole equals smartass.

be smarter than him keep it and change it for some gold necklace or something else

Not smart enough to somehow mess it up! How do you "find out" his master plan so easily, he can't be that bright.

2, his plan didn't work so he isn't smart enough - just trying to be calculating. 40, Gold is much more expensive than silver, so unless it is something really big she might not be able to exchange it for golden jewelry.

He's a classy asshole...a classhole!

Although that sucks, thats still a brilliant idea.

Unless she would have returned it and used store credit to pick out something she can wear, which is what she should have done.

My boyfriend did the same thing except with a peanut butter cake for my birthday. I hope you talk to him about it OP.
HKCgrimmjow 15
Except a peanut butter cake is in most cases non returnable and probably a little less pricey than a silver necklace

It is more deadly.
GhostChickens 17
Your boyfriend sounds like a twat. Purposely giving people things they are allergic to is downright moronic and, in some cases, possibly fatal. I may be overreacting a little but come on, that's ridiculous.

He took the phrase "boys are trolls" to a whole new level.

And you just took the phrase "over generalisation" to a new level.

Confront him, and let him know you're disappointed in him. Don't take his shit, OP.

How can a guy look good, if he knows his girlfriend is allergic to something and still gives it to her?
Zomg_Okay 27
Because the angle he was going for is "It's the thought that counts".
Joshwarrior 39
because I'm sure he did not plan on her finding out so it would be a win win. I'm curious how she found out.
Axipiter 24
Yup. It was a genius plan. Unfortunately not executed by a genius. A genius wouldn't have told anybody. Voìla. Keep your mouth shut, nobody finds out.

She didn't know he knew about her allergy. He planned to 'learn' about it then, return the necklace and keep the money. She was supposed to think the gesture was sweet and not expect a new necklace that she wasn't allergic to.
