What should I do if my boyfriend gave me a gift with another girl's name on the tag?

We’ve been together for almost a year and my boyfriend recently “bought me” a body wash/bath set. But on the tag it says “To: (other girls name)”. Obviously he lied and gave me something he meant to give someone else in the past. I think this is cheap and ridiculous of him. I don’t think I should let him just get away with it.. Should I say something to him or what?

Answer #31

Actually, I would NOT confront him. Instead I would find out who the gift was originally for. If there is any talkative person (sister. mother, friend) who knows him well, ask them whether they know who another girls name is. Most probably his ex-girlfriend, but maybe she could also be a relative who was in hospital? Or some other, rather harmless acquaintance? Maybe they don’t know her at all. He might have bought your gift on e-bay and never even read the tag… find out.

If you can’t find out…. or if there is a good explanation for the name (like… his 7 year old cousin was in hospital and he wanted to give her that gift, but then her mom forbid him to take the plush animal as she is allergic to house dust mites which he didn’t know and then he got her something else)… I’d still make a scene about it. Just to punish him for being careless and not removing the tag.

If she’s really his ex (or even his OTHER girlfriend), then I’d try to contact her. And tell her about your gift. Ask her to help you take revenge. And then pretend to him that you two are best friends. “I met that girl, she’s soooo nice… We shared these poems on the web and we talked on chat for hours. She’s soooo my wavelength. We met at the library. She’s so cool, my new friend. You have to meet her, her name is XYZ and she goes to whatever-highschool…” Yeah, and then watch him panic. Push him until he admits it. >:-)

Answer #32

Please don’t chat on the question board.

Answer #33

If I had noticed the label without him knowing I noticed, I would open the gift and no matter what it was I would criticize it, tell him that it was rubbish, and doesn’t he think I am worth more than this piece of tat.

I would let him squirm, and argue that it cost him this much and how he chose it specially, and how he really thought I would like.

I would then pick up the label, throw it at him, then throw the gift, and tell him to take it to the other person.

Answer #34

You should say that he better have stolen this from somebody else because you know he isn’t dumb enough to give you a gift meant for someone else….

Answer #35

DON’T BURN THE GUITAR!!!… The guitar is innocent…. better idea, steal it, send him a jar of ashes from your fire place (not ashes of the guitar) and send the guitar to me…. everyone’s happy

Answer #36

Answer #37

You should confront him about it and see what happened. If the gift really was for someone eltse then ask him who it was for, if he wont tell you, then eather leave it or try and figur it out for your self.

Answer #38

Answer #39

i would be like what the fucck is this you bringing yo mama shiit home to me with your broke ass. Bitcch takee me to Jared to get real diamonds bitch !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats my answer

Answer #40

I think it depends what it says on the tag… was your name similar to that other name? was the name written by hand or is it prewritten on the tag?

Answer #41

beat him up

Answer #42

If it happened to me, I would so not be impressed. I would give him it back and say “You’ve made a mistake, this isn’t mine, itbelong to another girl”…

Answer #43

I would have said…. Why does it have another girls name on it and then give it back to him and walk away

Answer #44

Hahahaha, Brush it off, and then sometime later that day or week call him your ex’es name. Be like “I love you Charli…Juan” Hahahh. I mean he’s a guy, guys are idiots, I wouldn’t freak over it, I’d just have fun with the whole experience. ♥

Answer #45

lol;-0

Answer #46

Throw it at him. :)

Answer #47
