Be grateful

Today, my boyfriend gave me a bucket of Twizzlers for our one year anniversary because "He knew I liked them." He has no idea why I am so upset. FML

Why ARE you upset? He didn't forget. He even remembered an insignificant detail about you. Most people would find that cute.

i would've loved the fact that my guy paid attention to a small detail like that. i was married for 12 years to a man that couldn't even remember (i.e. care) that i liked mayonnaise on my burger. trust me, it's the little things - sounds like he gets that.

Every single comment so far has called OP a spoiled little bitch, or some YDI variation. I don't think I've ever seen the FML community so unified in the cause of justice before. Congratulations everyone, this is a proud moment indeed.

A proud moment for the cause of sheer stupidity indeed. All a bunch of small children who never had a relationship, whining like the little bitches they are just because they, you included, COMPLETELY missed the point of the FML. This isn't about monetary value of the gift, kids!! It's about an adult relationship!! WTF, kids. Adults can easily buy their own junk candy as they wish. When there's an important occasion, you want to have your significant other remember it with something actually romantic, like a special dinner with only the two of them, or a nice date in a meaningful place for them, or anything cool like that. Not a crappy bucket full of some fattening thing that most women wouldn't get to eat the whole thing before it goes bad anyway!! (Fyi, we don't have the metabolism we had when we were your age, kids... we no longer CAN eat entire buckets of candy anyway!) It's not about him having to give her something expensive, it's about them doing something romantic and adult... So obviously, candy bucket = a no no for such an important occasion.

Well someone got all riled up didn't they? Forget your prune juice for breakfast this morning did we?

#88 - Unless I've missed some key detail, the FML does NOT state the OP's age ANYWHERE. For all you know the OP could be in high school.

How do you know the OP isn't like 16?

To #88: I'm pretty sure Twizzlers are fat free, and is it even possible for them to go bad? I bet you could eat a sealed twizzler 10 years later. (I work at a wholesale club, so I'm assuming the bucket was one of those big ones of individually wrapped twizzler pieces...)

A year isn't even enough time to test your relationship by going through significant hardships together. Why expect jewelry or anything else other than the small stuff that reminds him of you and vice versa? Stop being a bitch.

Firstly, be glad you have a boyfriend. Secondly, be glad he remembered your anniversary. Thirdly, be glad that he got you something you enjoyed.

It's better than nothing. I'd be happy to get a bucket of Twizzlers from someone I love.

What did you get for HIM, OP? You have no right to be bitching about a sweet gift anyway, but I have to wonder what you gave him? Gold-studded male thong? Diamond-crusted nose ring? What was it that so made the bucket of twizlers pale in comparison?
