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, I gave my wife a $900 necklace as a special Christmas gift. She gave me a set of Star Wars pajamas. As it turns out, I was more excited to wear my gift than she was to wear hers. FML

Today, my husband bought me a beautiful pair of earrings for my birthday, to match the necklace he'd spent months searching for online the previous year. What necklace? He gave me a watch he found at Walmart last year. I wonder who the lucky girl with the necklace is. FML

Today, I asked my girlfriend about a diamond necklace I bought her for her birthday, which she didn't seem to be wearing. She then told me she hocked it to pay for her inexpensive phone bill. I paid $1,500 for that necklace, she received $300 from the pawn shop. FML

Today, I took my girlfriend out for dinner to a fancy Italian restaurant for our one year anniversary. After giving her some roses, freshly baked cookies, and a thoughtful poem I wrote for her, she started laughing and asked for her real gift. FML

Today, it was my girlfriend's birthday, so I decided to take her to a fancy restaurant and give her an expensive $400 necklace that I had bought. Being traditional, I asked the waiter to arrange it nicely on the tray when he came with our dessert. Neither he nor the necklace ever showed up. FML

Today, is my boyfriend and my 3 year anniversary. We decided to give each other something that we really needed. I bought him the $300 worth of books that he needed for college. He surprised me with a workout video and exercise equipment. FML

wow. but you know, it's so easy for guys to get something really great for their girlfriend. it's harder for us to know what a guy wants. we obviously won't go out and buy a necklace for our boyfriend. what do we get, then? besides, if the OP is a huge elton john fan or something, then this would be a pretty cool present(= but sorry that's all she got you after 2 years, OP. that is just a little insensitive...

It's sad that she didn't go to the same effort, but that's still a pretty cool gift.

Obviously she's subtly hinting at bringing another guy into bed. Don't worry, bro, she'll be reciprocating the gift with a $100 strap-on by next week.

Perhaps she mistakenly thought you have the same kind of humor? I don't wear pink and don't like Elton John, but I'd find a gift like this incredibly hilarious (for the irony anyway) and would wear it just because.
