My girlfriend of 4 years decided to dump me.

Hopefully before you gave her her presents.

That reminds me that one year, my cousin's boyfriend got her a $1500 coffee machine, a flight of syrup and like a $500 giftcard to a local coffee shop for beans. Turns out, she was cheating on him with a woman at the time, and she broke up with him like 1 week later to be with her. It took all of us chewing her out to give the poor guy his present back so at least he could recoup the ~$2200 he spent.

Unless his was rich and I mean RICH, he was fucking insane for spending that much anyway.

We both gave each other a gift before it happened but mine did cost significantly more.
