Today, my boyfriend gave me a $100 gift card for Victoria's Secret. Suspicious, I checked the receipt he'd left in the bag. Turns out he had bought it during the 2 weeks we were broken up for some other girl who rejected him, so decided to give it to me instead. FML

What a jerk! Buy like the sexiest lingerie they have and show him. Then say 'too bad you'll never see me wearing them ;D' then kick to the curb :3

Dress up in it, show him, then ask if you look okay because you want to impress your new boyfriend.

Totally dump him ! But keep the lingerie (;

So if this were you, you would just throw away the $100 instead of giving it to your current boyfriend?

"still have gift card" is not quite as snappy as "had sex." Nice try, though.

Why not just leave well enough alone. You could have had a nice gift and been happy but instead you go snooping and end up upsetting yourself. You totally deserved it!

It's not snooping if it's her own gift....especially if the receipt is in the bag.

How do you know he didn't buy it for you in anticipation of you working things out? It is possible that he's not the jerk you're making him out to be. Just because the purchase date happens to be from when you weren't together doesn't mean he bought it for someone else. Jump to conclusions much?

I could not agree more, unfortunately human beings however, are naturally pessimistic when it comes to members of the opposite sex.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. In today's world, receipt = mouth.

Well, you took him back, even though you already had broken up en the first place? So who cares?

The past should stay in the past.

Did the receipt really give you all that information, or did you jump to conclusion? Personally, I've never seen a receipt that divulged more than date, name of the place whence the products were bought, items purchased and the cost of said items. But then again, I'm not American.

In America, our receipts include the date and what is going on in the customer's life and predictions for the future. They are usually several pages long for a pack of gum. The receipt the OP read probably said, "March 12, 2012. Broke up with girlfriend 4 days ago. Intended recipient of this gift card will reject it. Will get back with old girlfriend in 10 days. Please eat receipt." There's just way too much Tweeting and Facebooking going on!

hey new panties new boyfriend. ;)

Buy something sexy for a guy who's worth your time, but tell this loser you used it all on granny panties for when you're on your period.

Be suspicious and angry all you like but $100 dollars to spend on undies isn't something to turn your nose up at. No such thing as a free lunch.

I think what 57 was trying to say is this: Put your nose to your panties and earn that lunch!
