She could tell I wasn't happy and asked me if I liked the gift. I told her I didnt and that I was having a pretty good birthday until she got me that gift.

She looked hurt, but tbh the gift was pretty shitty, it doesn't seem like she even put much thought into it.

God lord enjoy being single shortly.

 

[Owari]

I do a lot of my posting at work. So I cant do follow ups as quickly as I would like. I guess I was being a bit of an ass but she was hyping up her present for about a month now. I just expected better.

Does the sweater have like testicle patterns on it? How bad could it possibly be?

 

[cyberheater]

Is my girlfriend pregnant?
Is my Manager a Jerk or am I just stupid?
Am I a Racist?
Anyone ever work with a Snitch?
My white Manager says my ringtone makes him uncomfortable

Everyone has got to stop falling for this dude's nonsense lol

Thanks for doing the legwork.

I will never click on another thread by this OP again.

Does your girl read this thread? If so, I got a gift for her and it is free.

Find another guy.

I thought something seemed familiar about the OP

It was a scarf and gloves/mittens.
The scarf is likely one of these:

The gloves are one of these:

Unless someone I loved game me something meant to hurt me (a box of anthrax, or something they know I hate like mayonnaise) I would never say anything like "you ruined my birthday".

 

[The Albatross]

I told her I didnt and that I was having a pretty good birthday until she got me that gift.

You fucking idiot, OP.

*edit. Thank you notworksafe *

You fucking idiot, OP.

 

[SpecX]

Wow, what an asshole response. At least she got you something.

 

[SamuelSupreme]

Alright guys. Here's the twist. The roles were actually reversed. After weeks of hyping up her gift. She exploded on me. Im feeling like shit now and angry. Like im really angry and hurt. I legitimately tried to do something thoughtful and it backfired.

Im heated and Ive been avoiding her calls. I know if we speak its going to be a fight and quite frankly, I just wanted to know if I had a leg to stand on.

Right. Nice try.

 

[aygomyownroad]

My partner stays at home and looks after our daughter. She gets basic child benefits (£80 a month).

She is always firm that she should spent that money on any gifts for me.

I have only complained once about a gift. Aftershave that was £70. I love the stuff but admitted that I wasn't happy with her spending that on me.

I would never loathe a gift secretly or otherwise. Its just being selfish and spoilt.

OP of you are claiming the roles are reversed why does she not like the gifts and what were they?

 

[Sami+]

It's been a long time since I've seen such an unsympathetic OP tbh.

 

[iModem]

She was excited to give you, someone she unconditionally loves, a gift. If you are being serious, then the best advice I can give you is to legitimately take a step back and TRY to see it from hers (or anyone else's) perspective. You are VERY much in danger of continuing your life as an absolute twat and unlikable fuck, and that's no way to live.

[Inferno313]

Honestly, I wouldn't dismiss OP as just a troll. Some dudes are legitimately shitheads. OP is probably one.

lol I don't buy OP's twist a bit.

 

[Lamiafusion]

I kind of had a similar experience but I was less dickish about it.

Girlfriend gave me a cotton candy machine. Just the previous week, I had told her that I HATE one use items in my place. I just don't have room for it in my life. Plus we have both been working on being healthier. It just rubbed me the wrong way. I told her I liked the gift but my face kinda of gave away what I really thought. Then after trying to get it to work for an hour, it was late then she dropped the "I would give you another present but I am too tired" bomb.

In retrospect, my anger came from a petty place but yeah...it was kind of a poopy birthday.

 

[DarkKyo]

I don't think you're going to worry about having to deal with your gf for much longer op

I dunno, if this is par for the course for how he treats his gf she probably just keeps coming back for more emotional abuse.

 

[Voras]

Girlfriend bought me a Blair Walsh jersey last year. She thought it I was a huge fan of his. I am not and he is a kicker. Stupid fantasy team name got me in trouble. Only good thing I used it for was a bet in fantasy this year. Just accept the gift and be happy even though it might not be something you want. They take a lot of thought in those things.

That's amazing. If someone bought me a kicker jersey by mistake I would laugh and then wear it all season.

I'm rather new to NeoGAF. Is this type of bait-and-switch and obvious trolling banworthy?

 

[Quick]

No chill.

 

[SamuelSupreme]

Thats fine. Quite frankly all my threads are real I post here to get unbiased and unfilitered opinions and then I try to grow from it.

One of the last times someone called me out for being a troll they referenced a thread I made on my divorce parents. So believe what you want, Im just using the means available to me.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Yesterday was my birthday. My girlfriend got me a cashmere scarf and gloves from Roots Canada....The scarf isnt my style and I have no use for Gloves (mittens specifically). Im feeling a type of way, I spent close to 500 getting her Boots and perfume.

She could tell I wasn't happy and asked me if I liked the gift. I told her I didnt and that I was having a pretty good birthday until she got me that gift.

She looked hurt, but tbh the gift was pretty shitty, it doesn't seem like she even put much thought into it.

Iunno she has some family issues that prevent her from having as much disposable income as I do but at the very least. And until now it didnt really bother me but honestly its preventing us from really doing anything worthwhile. It just sucks because I've never imagined having someone who loves me so unconditionally. Other than her money situation shes the perfect girlfriend.

Did I overreact? Its my birthday and I was just being honest.

Hahahahahaha you're a fucking asshole

Is my girlfriend pregnant?
Is my Manager a Jerk or am I just stupid?
Am I a Racist?
Anyone ever work with a Snitch?
My white Manager says my ringtone makes him uncomfortable

Everyone has got to stop falling for this dude's nonsense lol

Oh. I see.

I don't even know what you mean here.
Are you saying she got you a scarf and gloves and you were gracious about it, but she got mad that you weren't more thrilled with them?
or
You got her a gift and she pulled the "you ruined my birthday"?

Either way, very few will believe you at this point. Your credibility is shot.

Your work ethics are morally fucked, though. Instead of saying what happened in the first place, you turn it around making us all hate your unsympathetic personality and then you realized it backfired on you.

And now you are saying that your SO hated your gift.

That shit does not work that way.

 

[BrutishMrFish]

Based on the number of threads like this that you make, I doubt that very much.

holy moly she is probably heartbroken and crying right now ... girls always put a lot of thought into presents

[jstripes]

What?

Oh? So what would you call this one? You just admitted it's bullshit.

 

[Fury451]

I told her I didnt and that I was having a pretty good birthday until she got me that gift.

You don't have to pretend to like it but you don't have to act like this either. Being appreciativ but suggesting it's not your style is what normal etiquette is.

Edit: shocking swerve?

 

[NealMcCauley]

Is the girlfriend even real?

This twist is worst than an M. Night Shyamalan movie.

Seriously, OP what twist are you talking about? She got pissed at receiving boots? What?

No lies detected

 

[Manu]

Why would you tell the story in a way that made you look like an asshole.

What could you possibly gain from that.

 

[DarkJak101]

Dude... I can't even. Like why...? Please apologize to her before she realizes how much better she deserves, assuming she hasn't done that already.

Edit: Read update. Sorry, OP, nobody deserves to go through that...

Assuming everything he says is true, the purpose of inflating "his" dickish behavior would be to weaponize the opinions of neogaf as efficiently as possible against his girlfriend.

 

[#sorrynotsorry]

Why is his credibility shot? His previous threads aren't total trolls. I can believe this. Not 100% but the threads linked aren't outrageous and I know girls who are petty enough to do this shit.
