Today, my girlfriend came home with a huge bouquet of roses. They were from an admirer, brainwashing her to think I'm a terrible boyfriend for not buying her flowers like he did. FML

Someone needs to step up in the romance department. Although, she probably bought them herself.

Apparently... I would have the balls to accept flowers from another man then rub them in my husbands face. I'd be pissed at the guy for disrespecting my relationship. I'm guessing she tells the guy who bought her flowers all of her problems.

Honestly, it sounds to me like you've grown comfortable in the relationship and might be taking her for granted, especially if the simple act of someone else buying her flowers is enough to make her think you're a terrible boyfriend. You should both show each other that you love and appreciate each other every day in the little things you do (hold the door open for her, fix your favorite meals, go for walks together, etc ...). If you do that, no one will be able to "brainwash" her into thinking you're a terrible boyfriend. She'll know without a doubt that you care.

Honestly, after a while in a relationship, a lot of people stop noticing the little things, or take them for granted. OP could be doing everything right, but the new and exciting of an "admirer" could be blinding her to his actions.

Speaking from experience, it's highly doubtful the OP is doing everything right if the simple act of someone buying his gf flowers is enough to turn her head and make her think he's a terrible boyfriend. Buying someone flowers is a very small, romantic gesture. If it's enough to make his gf sit up and take notice of someone else, it shows that the OP hasn't done even small, romantic gestures in a long time.

Have a talk with her about accepting romantic gifts from other guys. How would she feel if you came home with a gift from some girl at work who is always flirting with you?

You are a terrible bf for not buying her flowers :p but she probably got them and was super flattered while thinking, I wish my bf was who I got these from. Why doesn't my bf do things like this? It might be stupid but it's tradition it's what you do to show you care about someone and its not a hard thing to do sweet cheesy things for a girl, almost have to try not to. What's the thought process there. Oh I know girls love flowers and sweet things and I like this girl... Nah I don't like her THAT much and flowers are stupid. Idk seems like logic. It's like proposing, no sweet words, no bent knee, no ring, Just saying ya wanna get hitched? You gotta have all that sweet gooey tradition stuff otherwise ur kinda an ass.

I don't know. I don't like flowers, they die within days anyway, and they're ridiculously expensive. So I already told my bf I don't even want flowers. Doesn't mean I don't want a knee or something even slightly romantic though :p

I'm shocked by all the people on here that use such possessive language like "she's yours" and "she belongs to you". She actually doesn't belong to anyone, and if she really thinks someone else would be a better boyfriend to her than you, she should dump you. No one is obliged to stay with someone who doesn't treat them right, just because they're already together. If you aren't a shitty boyfriend, then prove it.
