    Exclamation Am I being a bitch?? (the backup gift!)

    My boyfriend and I have only been together for like 3 mos., but things are pretty serious between us. I'd told him before that I didn't want anything for Christmas, but he was pretty adamant about us exchanging gifts. Since we've been together, more than a few times, I've heard him gripe about how his ex wife never got him anything for Christmas, Valentine's Day, his birthday, etc etc.

    Now, I'm pretty strapped for cash. I'm not flat broke, but I don't have money to blow on BS. I have no idea what he got for me. It could be something big, it could be something small. I got him something big. Should I get him something small as a back up gift just in case he got me something crappy or inexpensive, so that I can just return the large gift and get my money back?? lol I feel like such a jerk typing this.

    Why do you need to get a back-up gift? It's not about matching what someone else gives you. You give what you WANT to give...and can afford to give - and he does the same. That's what giving is all about....it's the thought behind it that counts.

    You're so right! I think he either got me some jewelry or some lingerie ... If he got me lingerie, I'm going to choke him out with it. And, hell, I don't even wear jewelry...

    He told me he wanted socks and underwear ... psh, he just might get it! What time does Walmart close??

    ^ haha . You sound like me. I'm terrible, but I just hate all this non-sense with the holidays . I don't know as far as what to do for the smaller present! I generally try to get out of gift giving and go somewhere.
