His Girlfriend Dressed Up In A Skimpy Outfit For His Birthday, But He Claimed That Didn’t Count As A Real Present, And She’s Been Mad At Him Ever Since
This 28-year-old guy has been dating his girlfriend, who is 30, for just under two years, and about three months ago, they moved in together.
Just yesterday, it also happened to be his birthday. But, according to him, neither he nor his girlfriend are big gift lovers.
Instead, they usually prefer something more experience-based, like getting tickets to a sporting event or a concert for their birthdays and Christmas.
“But we usually give some type of material gift as well,” he noted.
Anyway, he celebrated his birthday with his girlfriend, and they first went out to eat together. Then, they headed back to their house, and his girlfriend told him to wait outside until she “called him in” to present him with his gift.
He followed her directions, too, and only went inside when his girlfriend told him to. And once he eventually went in, he realized that his girlfriend was wearing a special new skimpy outfit.
Now, he clarified that he has never understood the point of women dressing up like that just to get physical.
“But clearly, she was happy, so I just rolled with it,” he recalled.
He and his girlfriend “hooked up and everything,” too. However, he was still expecting his real birthday gift.

That’s why, after they were done, he asked his girlfriend, “But really, did you get me something for my birthday?”
At that point, she was taken aback and pointed out how the skimpy outfit was his present. Quite frankly, though, he just found that entirely weird for two reasons.
First of all, he would never wear that outfit himself. Secondly, he never even expressed interest in his girlfriend wearing something like that.
So, he responded dryly, telling his girlfriend, “Alright, thanks.” And if you couldn’t have guessed, she didn’t take that very well.
She wound up asking if he was let down by the way she looked. However, he tried telling his girlfriend that his disappointment had nothing to do with her appearance.
“I just find it a little silly to think that counted as a present,” he admitted.
Still, his honesty didn’t help the situation, and his girlfriend has been mad at him ever since.
And now, this has left him wondering if telling his girlfriend that her special outfit didn’t count as a birthday gift really did make him a major jerk.
Can you understand what his girlfriend was trying to do? Do you think he had a right to be upset about not getting a “real” present or not? How could he have handled this situation better?
