Wow ... my friend is feeling like crap right now...

Well, my friend and I found out through a few people that his g/f got him an A60 for Christmas. He feels like a bag of sh!t. All he bought her is a $15 box of chocolates and a homemade love poem. Now, neither of these people are hard up for money - but my friend is being a cheap ass. I'm not saying spend a ton but come on - a hand written home made love poem ... it's written on crumbled lined paper for pete's sake. The thing that gets me is - he thinks she's gonna be majorly disappointed at Christmas but doesn't want to do anything about it. If I were her I would be too. She bought him a nice gift and he got her dog crap.
 
christmas isn't for 6 more days, if he really gave a crap he could still get something for her, right?

i don't get it

Your friend is stupid if he cares that little about a g/f that he won't spend more than $15 on her.

Agreed and with the poster who said he won't have to worry about spending any money on her after Christmas because she won't be around. 😉

And he will have a sweet camera. Your friend is pretty sharp.
 
^^^ True

He just better ge this gift first ... otherwise I'm willing to lay money down that she'd take the A60 back.

He is so damn stubborn. He's got more than enough time to get her something nice.
 
equation for amount of money you should spend on you SO:

[(amount you think he/she is going to spend) + (2 x your age)]^2

To me, that home-made love poem, provided not a cliche/plagiarised work, means a lot more than the overpriced gift. However, I guess I'm just different, or something.

If it really bothers your friend, it's simple: Instead of wallowing in self-pity or guilt, he should go get her something to make up for it.
 
Who cares? If your friend wants to break up, it's his decision. And if he doesn't, he gets the reap the consequences, whatever they may be.
 
If breaking up is his intention, it's terrible to use her like that. If it's not, I don't understand why he doesn't care enough about her to go pick out a nice gift for her. If money is an issue, he could still be thoughtful. He could write her a poem on a nice piece of paper, followed by a candlelit dinner prepared by him.
 
Yes, because buying someone something expensive means it means more than...........something he made for her. How sad your logic is.
