Man Calls Out GF For Always Neglecting Him But Doing Valentine For Friends
"Funny you had time to get stuff for them though, why does it seem like I always come last"
Valentine's Day is almost approaching, and while we want to show our partner our love and thoughtful presents, it's important to keep in mind that not every gift idea is a hit. Valentine's Day is a day to show love and affection to people who have a particular place in our hearts.
Giving thoughtful and considerate gifts is what matters most, even though exchanging gifts is a frequent custom. Knowing when to give gifts on Valentine's Day is equally crucial, but what happens when one partner isn't always gifting?
Well, that is what we see in today's story, and the OP just had to call his partner out. The OP tries to do little stuff for his girlfriend.
When OP sees something he thinks his girlfriend would like, he gets it, but his girlfriend doesn't reciprocate. The OP has chalked it up to different people doing things differently, but that thought wasn't meant to last.
Come Valentine's Day, and the OP got her her favorite candy along with some other stuff. The OP also mentioned that a few days prior to Valentine's Day, he saw her posts on social media where she was "out shopping for this person and that person's Valentine's presents."
This meant that she was getting stuff for two of her friends, but when OP presented his gifts to her, he got nothing in return. Sad, right? Read the full story below to find out what happens next.
