Today, I've been considering breaking up with my girlfriend so I don't have to buy her a Christmas present. FML

Does she have expensive tastes? Or are you seriously that indecent?

If you knew your girlfriend well enough, maybe you'd realize that if she knew you were struggling, she'd probably forgive the fact that you don't have enough to buy her a gift... Obviously you don't know her well enough you poor slob.... Stop buying yourself gifts and save your cash...

You know....if this is the type of relationship where neither of you is understanding enough to just tell and/or accept the fact that you or your partner can't afford a gift, then maybe you should break up. Then grow up and be an adult. Good partners don't care if you can't buy them an expensive gift or a gift at all. Just explain. Then give her a romantic evening at home with a massage or something. She'll appreciate it.

OP never said he can't afford a gift - just that he didn't want to. If he's just being cheap and thinks this is a good way to save money, then he should dump his GF because he does not deserve her. If he's just broke then he should dump his GF because he is a coward who would rather break someone's heart than be honest about his situation and she deserves better. Either way he's a loser.
