Allergies and Love: Goodbye

Goodbye

By dogs_and_toucans - 08/06/2009 18:47 - United States

Today, my girlfriend of 10 months moved to Europe and we may never see each other again, so I gave her a $200 sterling silver heart necklace as a goodbye present. She gave me a pack of gum. Cinnamon, which I'm allergic to. FML

Today, my girlfriend and I decided to exchange presents for our birthdays. I spent $100 on perfume and Victoria's Secret clothes. She bought me a bag of lifesavers, then asked me to leave because she wanted to take a nap. FML

Today, my girlfriend told me she wanted to take a break. At least she gave me a parting gift. Lice. 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

It's the thought that counts, or something

Today, I gave a girl I like a $200 diamond necklace to express how much she means to me. She gave me a hug and told me she didn't want to lose me as a friend. Nor did she want to lose her new necklace. Today, I got a $200 hug. FML

Today, my girlfriend of 8 months and I broke up. We decided to give back everything we ever bought for each other. I gave her the stuff she bought me and when I asked for my stuff she said she'd sold it and spent the money on herself. FML

Today, this girl I've been talking to texted me, saying she was going to visit. Trying to be sweet, I bought her $50 worth of chocolate and a cute card. Turns out she meant to send that text to her ex. Seems like the only thing I'll get from this relationship is diabetes. FML

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

One last thing…

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me. She came over to see me one last time. We hugged for minutes and cried; it was a touching moment. Just after she left, I realized my wallet that I had on the table beside us was gone. FML

Today, I was planning on breaking up with my girlfriend of five years in two days time. She just mailed me a care package that said, "I'd die without you." 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

"It's the thought that counts." You know. But really, maybe she doesn't have money to buy you $200 jewelry. And I'm sure she didn't really mean for a pack of gum to be equivalent to your gift. I think you're rather ungrateful, actually. It was nice of you to buy her jewelry, but I wouldn't want my boyfriend making the whole world think I'm a lousy girlfriend just because I'm poor.

I would have taken it back, because that's bullshit. As a young lady, I would like to see the girl who did this. I'd like to slap her in the back of the head for making all of us look bad. And by the way, to the person who said "the thought counts", there was no thought involved. It was gum the poster was allergic to! After 10 months, she should have known that.

#106- Actually a decent Sterling silver necklace can be anywhere from 100-300 dollars, especially if it's Tiffany & Co. So not fair to say he was ripped off, it's not a cheap material..

I actually doubt, that you could get an allergic reaction from artificial cinnamon flavor. Don't be sad though, people forget stuff and allergies aren't something she was constantly reminded of wasn't she?
