Today, I had finally summoned the courage to break up with my boyfriend, something I've needed to do for a long time. Right before my speech, he presented me with tickets to my favorite band a month from now. FML
I agree, your life sucks 24 939
You deserved it 5 999

If you went with him I'm sure you wouldn't have had as much fun as going with any of your friends or alone even

Now, I ain't saying you a gold digger but.....

OP, don't be one of those people that stays with someone they don't even love just because that person buys them things. Be a good person; give the poor dude the tickets back and nicely explain that you can't accept them, and why you think the relationship should end. He might be mad, but not nearly as much as he will be if he figures out you stayed with him for over a month, lying about your feelings, just to attend a concert. The healthiest thing for both of you would be to end things now.

The concert won't make you any happier. Can always buy your own tickets

Let me guess, you accepted the tickets, right? Because 90% of females are materialistic ****** who, even though they don't like someone, will stay if they get 'things' out of the deal.

That might be the case with you. People only need money/gifts when they have nothing else to offer (no looks and zero personality). And your personality sounds charming. But yeah, the problem is definitely in "90%" of women and not in you. I bet you get rejected for being ignorant douchebad and your defensive mechanism tells you "oh, it's the women, those materialistic bitches".

Huh, stay with the guy who paid for the tickets or break his heart and waste his money.. Sorta a no brainer.

Am I the only one who smells possible manipulation on the boyfriend's part? Like he saw the breakup coming and decided to go all-out to ward it off? Especially if this is the case, the other commenters are right, OP. Lose the boyfriend. As far as the tickets go, if he offered BOTH of them as a gift, then I maintain that that was his own damn fault and he can't place conditions on a gift once it's already been given. However, if he's only offering the one ticket and intends to use the other, definitely turn him down. Take it from personal experience that you can't really enjoy a show of any sort if you don't like your companion.

Take the tickets and tell him you have to go home , stash them in your room , then ask him if y'all can talk and break up with him. It's a win-win situation ..... I mean except for him lol

No not a good or decent plan at all. I mean if you want to perpetuate the gold digging bitch idea sure, but don't **** him over when he does something nice. Just break up and leave the tickets. I sincerely hope you grow up because if you get married and then divorced your mentality is what's going to cause you to get zip from him. You will be portrayed as a gold digger and judges don't award alimony to gold diggers.

80, if you think it's okay to mistreat all women because an extreme minority is selfish, you have problems.

Well what was the reason you were going to break-up with him?

She's not happy. That's all you need to know.

You idiot. If you're not happy then end it, don't cave just because he bought you concert tickets. Have some self respect for God sakes.

My question to the OP is what band. Might be worth it. "Accidentally" loose his ass at the show. Problem solved

You're a horrible person, just like all the other gold diggers in this comment section. Wow! People like you are what is wrong with this world. Buy your own damn tickets, you leech!

This is why you never have the courage, because you can't set your priorities straight. Got only yourself to blame. Idiot. Doesn't take courage. Just stop being an idiot

I'm so glad everything in your life has worked out so well that you've never found yourself backed into a corner by anyone you've been in a relationship with. Until you're in OP's situation yourself, shut your asshole mouth. You're the real idiot here.
