New flatwear, pashmina, food processor, and the greatest gift of all, a "dick in an oil tanker".

Brown half-boots, merino turtleneck, cool brown jacket with dark brown stitching, brown purse to hold my ****. Odds and ends.

Of course, she's taking the best piece back to get a (sigh) black jacket.

My girlfriend and I are in college and neither of us have much money (especially her) and she really wanted a nice hair cut so I just got her a cut, color and some products from a pretty nice salon. I felt kind of lame giving a gift card but that is what she asked for.

You guys are too generous. I'm not spending cash like that on any women until i'm engaged :p And if I buy anyone LV, it's gonna be me.

I hate breaking up with chicks who then keep my expensive gifts. It happened once and I swore never again!

Ah, the joy of selfish pursuits.

I guess my mom and grandmothers are the closest things to S.O.'s I have. Girlfriends=waste of time.

My mom got a pair of oatmeal colored cashmere gloves from Saks; grandma got a set of thank-you notes from Neiman Marcus; and the other grandma received two teddy bears sporting Harris Tweed clothing.

How many girlfriends does a guy go through before he gets married, on average? All i'm saying is it's a waste to spend any large amount of money on gifts for them. It's always the guy that gets screwed too. How often do you hear about girls buying their boyfriends expensive gifts? It usually one-way, so I say screw it.
