Today, after ranting to my boyfriend about how Pandora bracelets are pointless and cliched and that I'd never spend that kind of money on a tiny charm, he gave me my Christmas present. It was a Pandora bracelet. FML

Hi, OP here...Ok it was a couple days before Christmas that I ranted about it, and he had already bought me the bracelet. But It's not an FML because I hated the bracelet, it's an FML because I felt so bad about it and had no idea he got me one. The bracelet ended up being beautiful and thoughtful and I love it. The beads he got were the exact ones I would have picked out myself.

Anyone else totally see where this FML was headed right away? Anyway, FYL, but I find it's best not to complain about items ON Christmas Day, but rather before so they know what not to get you. Otherwise this happens ;)

Hey you said YOU would never spend that kind of money. Doesn't matter if someone else wants to :p

I think pandora bracelets are far better then any regular cheap ass charm bracelet. They can be pretty meaningful too, I always get new ones during the holiday and some of mine represent different things in my life, they really are lovely.

Now then, OP, when I say YDI I don't meant the bracelet. Second, never complain before opening the present. And third, just because you won't drop that type of money on yourself, which I understand, doesn't mean he doesn't want too.

Personally if I'm not willing to waste that much money on a piece of Jewelry which has not purpose beyond decoration, I would be pissed at my boyfriend for wasting that much money on something purely decorative. There are so many more practical and useful things, even at Christmas, to buy.

Hey now, he probably was proud to get it for you. It's the thought that counts, right?

You have a clear case of foot-in-mouth disease!

I have a pandora bracelet And I love it

At least you didn't have to pay for it. and it's the thought that counts right? Maybe he'll even buy you a few charms...but like everyone else saoid shoot the hints of what you don't like before xmas.

You talked about it, therefore it got stuck in his head. Next time talk about what you LIKE instead of being so negative and judgmental!

Just blame it on jealousy and say you were mad at people who had them because you didn't
