Wow. I'm all for telling it like it is with woman.

But you WAY crossed the line. She may very well break up with you over this. You crushed her man.

I hope you GF dumps your ass on V-Day and gets a real man. You're a total prick!

Are you sure you're a guy?

I love getting practical gifts. My GF loves getting thoughtful gifts.

All my friends and their significant others are the same way.

I told her I only had one guess (a new weight bar, sold the 7-footer 'cuz its too big and I need a 4-5 foot bar) because she was asking me questions about what kind of bar to get the other night. I told her I hoped she didn't get me that because you don't get your SO something "practical" like that for V-Day, you get/do something that just puts a smile on the person's face, you know like "sweet" and sh!t.

Well she seemed to get irritated at that point, said something about "its the amt of thought you put into the gift." I again explained that I just meant a weight bar isn't an appropriate V-Day gift, but of course it didn't get through. I don't know if she got me the bar or not, but she definitely got pissed. I made a comment about "and yet again i've done something wrong" and told her to just sleep on the couch, because she's been finding sh!t to be pissed at me about a lot lately.

Now she refuses to talk to me about wtf happened, why she actually slept on the couch (other than to be a bitch), or explain why she's so damn pissed off. If she's making this damn big of a deal because she bought me something I don't think is the right kind of gift for V-day, I'm gonna be pissed myself. This is just ****** ridiculous. When do you say enough is enough after 4.5 years?

EDIT Oh yeah, and we were planning to celebrate V-Day this weekend since we're both busy on the actual day; she told me she has no desire to go out, to give me presents, or to receive my presents. Talk about a damn drama queen

You are a MAJOR asshat..

dude your comments were hurtful and insensitive... youre lucky she didnt walk out on your ass..

You're a moron. I've never bought anything for my wife for valentine's day, and neither of us has ever slept on the couch.

Buying stuff for people on a "Holiday" is retarded. Buy them what you want when you want it, and dont expect anything.

Calling her a bitch and a drama queen does wonders for the relationship too.

QFT!

Honestly useful gifts are great! My gift for my gf isn't something "sweet" as you call it, it's something she's pointed out to me in passing and I know it's something she'd like and enjoy, I'm not buying some pointless nic-nacs that'll get tossed away after they give the '2 seconds of smiles'

Honestly I never expect my gf to buy me anything, although she does, and when she does it's always useful and practical. It's part of what makes her incredible, and I wouldn't trade her for anything.

Somehow I just don't foresee those pics ever existing...

...actually, I don't foresee her wearing the VS outfit ever. Even if they make up and straighten everything out, she won't wear it because it'll remind her of the Valentine's day when her boyfriend was an ass.

rofl...dude...I'm all up for some romantic...but somehow. "A sexy outfit" doesn't seem like a gift for her. To me when I bought a girl that kind of gift, that was a gift FOR ME!! Dude you owe her an apology. If you keep acting this way, you'll most likely end up wearing that sexy outfit yourself (coz you act like a girl so much). Fsck, I wish I get something practical as a gift.
True, sort of a gift for me; but she likes nice clothes like that and doesn't buy too much of it for herself.

There's nothing wrong with practical gifts; 99.99999% of the time those are what I want! Any other occasion, that is all I want. But as I explained, particularly with the lack of....relationship we've had lately I just feel that way about it.

Yeah I know I'm the woman in the relationship, pardon me if I'm more than just cock & balls

I do feel like an ass for saying that, but I honestly didn't think she had gotten me the weight bar! It was more of a joking concern in my mind, which was the only reason I mentioned it. Its not like she told me what she got and I said "that's stupid," we were discussing it in general.

Ah, I just suck at life


There's a reason why she doesn't buy too many nice clothes like that for herself. BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T REALLY LIKE IT ALL THAT MUCH (unlike you, she doesn't say "hey that's not a thoughtful gift")

.......

man...reading the rest of this thread cracked me up. Anyupdate OP?

If she wanted to get you something you could use...she should have gotten you a swift kick in the crotch.

Ha! Man, why do people never learn that this is where you come for ridicule, not commiseration.

That said, this guy is seriously a moron. How did you manage to keep her for this long?

This is one of the best examples of self pawnage I've see in a while. Somehow I think the OP knew he was pawned before he ever posted this thread. This thread is a form of self mutilation

After reading this thread, I'm damn glad me or none of my girlfriends were ever into giving or receiving gifts. It makes things so simple, and really takes the pressure off. I'd much rather never get any gifts actually.

Imo, just being together and a card perhaps is good enough.

I just can't stand male/female drama.

I have to agree with the gf here... she went through all that trouble to get you something you need & want, and you turnaround and tell her it's not appropriate as a Valentine's Day gift? No wonder she's mad at you

I think you pwned yourself. And why would you want a valentines day "appropriate" gift anyway. They're all just stupid useless crap. And you probably already waste enough money on that buying stuff for your GF...might as well have at least some of your collective funds go to useful stuff.

Why was the original bar to long anyway? Did you just not have enough room to workout with it?
