I was talking to my boyfriend on the phone tonight and just casually he guessed what his gift was and he didn’t sound all that pleased. What makes it worse is that he asked if he had guessed right and I blurted out No, just because I was scared and upset!
I’m a little panicked. I thought I had a good idea but he sounded really unimpressed…
I’m totally lost as to what to do now! Should I try and get something else? Or just go with it and admitted I didn’t tell the truth?! (link)

This is a true predicament. Obviously you are ata digital crossroads, that is, you can either give him the gift (with qualifications) or not (again, with qualifications). Depending on what the gift is, he may have been guessing because it is in fact something he could use. But you must remember, you are not buying something just for the sake of buying it, you are acquiring something for a loved one you think needs something in their life. If it something you contemplated upon and concluded was something he needed, then yes, give it to him with the qualification that 'he is a good guesser' and he should not try that again (jokingly ofcourse). If its a gift that is trendy or not very practical in his daily life (a gold plated spork), then take it back and find him something you think expresses your love for him.

Thanks! Your advice was pretty good. But I had to give you five just cause you said "gold plated spork"
