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'm an adult (at least the government has begun taking money from me so I'd assume such) and I would LOVE a bucket of twizzlers for an anniversary. I don't even have an anniversary (can't remember when me and my bf met EXACTLY, but birthdays, christmas and other special occasions are plentiful enough ^^) nevermind GIFTS for anniversaries. I am female as well and also very confused as to why you're upset... were you expecting rose petals strewn across the house and diamond rings and shit? O.o

Spoiled bitch. He got you something that he knew you would've liked and you cry about it.

You should appreciate your boyfriend. Expensive gifts are unoriginal. Anyone could go out and buy a pair of earrings. NOT everyone would remember what your favorite candy is. Hopefully these comments on your post will help you realize that you're looking at this all wrong. Eat your candy, and love it!

I agree/understand the OP 100%. Her boyfriend is a cheap asshole. He got her candy. That's embarrassing. He could have spent $20 extra dollars and took her to a movie or something at least. I'm not saying it has to be expensive, he could have even made her something. But he kind of shows that he most likely forgot about it untill he was on his way over so he stopped at Walgreen's to buy her a present.

It's not the price tag that should matter with a gift. It should be the thought that counts. I'd rather my boyfriend gave me something he knew that I could use or at least something that he's taken the time to pick out, rather than something he thought he was forced to buy for me. If you really think that the cost of something is that important, than I hate to say it but you are pretty shallow for thinking that. The OP's boyfriend gave her something he knew she'd like. She has no reason to complain.

Well maybe you two should hang out together and bitch about your boyfriends lame gifts. Neither of you deserve to have boyfriends if all you care about is how much money he spends on you. My boyfriend got me like five or ten pounds of sour gummy worms for Christmas last year (because he knows I love them) and it was the sweetest thing ever. If he remembers to get you something you love, consider yourself lucky. Most guys don't even bother so there.

fair enough, maybe you were expecting something more special, but i'm only seventeen and even i know that boys aren't psychic. if you were expecting more, make it clear.

mmmmm this is making me want to get a package of twizzlers.... anyway, i can only imagine OP being mad if she told him she wanted to go out to dinner or something special, and he just handed her a bucket of candy that she didn't even like.....but this doesn't seem like the case here. oh well.

Its the thought that counts you selfish bitch. I hope he dumps your ass!

YDI for being a selfish self centered bitch. You can't be happy that he remembered and got you something you liked. What were you hoping for? Jewelry? An expensive dinner? Be happy with what you got and move the hell on if you're so materialistic that his present didn't meet your requirements for a PRESENT.

Anyone else would be happy with that. You should have gotten a swift kick in the squash.
