I bought a gift for Christmas for my BF of 5 months. He seems to be upset about this what should I do?
He saw the box in my car and it is big. He assumed that it was expensive (it is not!!). He called me later day and said I don't have to buy him anything, he doesn't need anything or he can get it himself of he want something. From his voice, I don't really know how he feels about it. Now I don't know what to do (I got him The Massager since he always have back pain) . I gave it a lots of thought to pick the gift. Should I return the gift? and just get him a card or give it to him anyway. I don't want him to feel that he obligate to get me anything. or should I get something else smaller? This is suck!!
He probably just felt bad that you spent so much money on him (as far as he knows). I would just give it to him anyways. I think it's very thoughtful. If he doesn't want it, he can give it back to you. But make sure that before you give it to him, you explain that you put a lot of thought into this and that you wouldn't have gotten it for him if you couldn't afford it. He probably feels bad too that he didn't get anything for you. So long as you are sure that you are o.k. with that, give him the present. If when you think about it honestly, you think it would hurt your feelings if he got you nothing after how much thought you put into your gift, don't give it to him. Just get him a card and maybe some colon. Good Luck!
