Today, my girlfriend told me that the necklace I gave her wasn't a "unique enough gift." I spent two weeks making that necklace, link by link. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 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, I realised that every morning my girlfriend gets me to help her put on a locket her ex-boyfriend bought her on Valentine's Day. FML
Today, it was my girlfriend's birthday, so I decided to take her to a fancy restaurant and give her an expensive $400 necklace that I had bought. Being traditional, I asked the waiter to arrange it nicely on the tray when he came with our dessert. Neither he nor the necklace ever showed up. FML
Today, I finally got everything in order to ask out the girl of my dreams. I bought her a gold necklace, engraved with our names, and with the date on the back. Everything was going great until she got sick and had to go home. Now I'm stuck with this necklace with the wrong date. 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, I asked my girlfriend about a diamond necklace I bought her for her birthday, which she didn't seem to be wearing. She then told me she hocked it to pay for her inexpensive phone bill. I paid $1,500 for that necklace, she received $300 from the pawn shop. FML
Today, my husband bought me a beautiful pair of earrings for my birthday, to match the necklace he'd spent months searching for online the previous year. What necklace? He gave me a watch he found at Walmart last year. I wonder who the lucky girl with the necklace is. FML
Today, for our 2-year anniversary, I bought my girlfriend a beautiful $400 necklace. She bought me a pink $5 shirt of Elton John riding a piano through space. FML
Today, the girl I have feelings for gave me a really thoughtful handmade gift. She apologized for not buying something. I meant to tell her it’s worth more than anything, or priceless, but my mouth instead said, “It’s worthless." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

My boyfriend always gives me ugly jewelry that he made and I'll wear it until it breaks just because I love him.

49, I usually don't go right to ditch the bitch, but in this case, exceptions can be made. You made it, "link by link", and she says it isn't unique enough, take it back, and hold onto it for the next woman who would actually appreciate it.

I wish my boyfriend would give me a handcrafted gift. I also wish I had a boyfriend... Ehhh :(

Maybe the necklace wasn't particularly unique looking, and she assumed it was bought? Make sure your girlfriend knows how hard you worked on it, and hopefully she will be grateful. I'm not excusing her rudeness, just trying to explain it.

It might be unique in the hand-made original sense but necklaces in general are common gifts, and therefore, not unique. This lady seems high maintenance.

Well what do you expect him to give her? A tiger on a gold leash? She shouldn't make him give her first class items.

The best gifts always come from the heart OP. I'm sure it was beautiful, even though your gf wasn't greatful

I hope you don't plan on giving that to a future girlfriend.

Dump her? Seriously? Just because of that? I wouldn't want to be your partner!

Not entirely sure why this got down voted. I personally admire the fact she still wears it, even though its not necessarily attractive.

You are a keeper, my dear. You were raised right.

You know, you could probably make a little bit of jewelry with him and subtly suggest things to make his creations more attractive

Or take a class with him. Or go to an open studio. Couples who do fun things together and share each other's interests are strong and healthy couples. Generally.

I doubt the gf has ever put as much thought/effort into a gift for op...

Next time, get her a cheap necklace made out of macaroni and then see what she says.
