The meanest gift ever!!!

**lizzardb63** · 11-30-2010 02:54 PM

I was on a website that states bad things that happen to you (not sure if you hear F My Life?), but anyway. There was one that I couldn't believe I read. It stated: "I asked my boyfriend what he wanted for Christmas and he said he would only tell me if I promised not to get mad, so I agreed. He said he wants me to start working out because I'm getting fat."

That is absolutely horrible!! So here is my question:

What is the worst gift you ever recieved or what is the worst gift anyone has asked you for???

disposable razors and a plastic fish piggy bank from the Dollar Store. On a 3 year anniversary. :\

Oh gosh... that's bad! I once got a vibrator from my then bf because he thought it would solve our sexual issues. I gave him oral all the time and he didn't want to do it for me, ever... so he gives me a freakin' vibrator instead and says "Here, now you can just get yourself off whenever you want". Idiot...

A three tiered, plastic "fountain" made to look the water is coming from a faucet suspended in the air. I was married to the man for 9 years, that was one of three gifts I ever got from him.

This is all so sad. Some people are really unthoughtful! I know it's the thought that counts, but you can tell when there was little effort involved or a "last minute oops I forgot" gift.

OMG I read the fml post too! I was sooo appalled. I cannot believe how insensitive some men are. My guy has been pretty good about gifts. He puts a lot of thought in to them. However, for the first several holidays my boyfriend and I were together, he kept getting me lingerie! He got it for me for my birthday, Christmas, valentines, and our anniversary. I felt bad because I didn't want to see ungrateful, but I finally had to tell him to stop getting me lingerie! We've had several holidays since then and he's gotten a lot better at the gift giving thing.

Well I don't know if I could classify it as the meanest gift ever, but definitely insensitive. When I was 7 months pregnant my now ex-husband brought home a little brown lunch bag that had a pair of crotchless panties in it. He had been to the strip club and won them in a raffle... Ex for a reason.

My ex used to say at my birthday and christmas "Just tell me what you want and I'll go buy it." ....gee thanks. (by the way, he never gave me a gift)

Several Valentine Day's ago, I walked into our home with new bed pillows for my then husband and two children, nothing extravagant, but thoughtful and useful..... as I walked in with the bags from the store, he screams "Oh great!!! Now I gotta go get YOU something!!!!" .... ex for a reason!

I have several.. rather insensitive gifts that were given to me...

At my reception, (raised Catholic, but married in front of a judge) my grandfather gave me his "USED" Crockpot for a wedding gift. The card enclosed stated, we were not married in the eyes of God, and he
would never forgive me for not taking my vows in front of God and church.
The other was on my Birthday, i was pregnant with the second child. Hubby was finishing Grad school and came home long enough to do laundry and tell me, "Happy Birthday, i hope its not a girl.. as i don't want another one around just like you.." packed laundry and went back to school. (He had been having an affair at the time of that claim)
Then there was my mother-in-law, at Christmas. She sent me her old winter coat. Tag read, I thought this coat might fit you since you have put on weight. Mind you... she is 4ft 7in. and weighs about 230 lbs.. I wrote her a lovely lie.... That stated it was too tight and so i gave it to goodwill.. In actuality it was like a tent and a short tent at that....
