This aggravates me because I told her exactly what I wanted for my birthday (a new wallet and a trip to my favorite seafood restaurant). I was really excited for my birthday. I was really looking forward to being able to at least open a beautifully wrapped and thoughtful gift. I worked my ass off to make everything for her birthday perfect and in return I get an IOU.
I don't know what to do because I've been looking forward to my birthday for months, a chance where she could really show me how much she cared. I was really hoping that she could wow me in some way (im not looking for money, just to show that she spent some time working on a good gift). I don't know what to do. It bothers me so much and I want to break up with her. I gave her lots of idea for what I wanted to do on my birthday and when I asked her she said she didn't remember me telling her any of them. So now I realize that she doesn't listen (or remember) when I tell her something important.
I feel bad because she feels like she cannot make me happy (which is honestly true, because she does nothing for me). I know she doesn't have much money but even if she made me a cd, or got me a t-shirt it would have made me very happy and at least I could thank her. How do I thank someone for an IOU? "maybe next year you could get me a good present?"
anyway, I'm probably going to break up with her on friday, I feel bad, but just want to cut my losses at this point. If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated.
