this is kinda weird but my boyfriend gave me this perfume (bvlgari jasmin noir) for my birthday and i was just being myself and went to check how much it costed online it's a 5ml and it said it's a tester which probably meant it was free, should i be upset about this? (link)
Maybe he just didn't have the money for something expensive. Is it the price of the gift that is important to you? Or did he lie and say he paid a lot of money for it? If he lied, yeah, that's not cool. But it does seem kind of petty to be upset over the price (or lack, thereof) of a gift. I can't count how many posts I've read on this site from girls who are upset because their bf didn't bother to get anything for their b-day/anniversary/graduation, etc. If it bothers you so much (again, I'm assuming he hasn't lied to you about the cost)then ask him about it, but don't be surprised if hurts his feelings or makes him think of you a little differently. In this economy, I think its a bit shallow to be judging any thoughtful gift by its cost. At least he cares.
