Ex-GF: Brandon Marshall throwback women's jersey (that's a half a size too small >), plane tickets for her and I to go to Chicago in the summer to visit her family there, "engagement ring" Pandora charm for her bracelet, engagement ring and wedding band.

I can understand the other stuff if you're still good friends with her, but I'm confused about the engagement ring and wedding band if she's your ex.

Gave:

My family: Pandora bracelet and charm for my Mom...

Ex-GF: ...Pandora charm for her bracelet...

omg people actually buy this cheesy shit? does every pandora bracelet come with an "I am midwestern and incredibly boring" charm, or is that just implied?

[Hiryo]

I don't have pictures because all I got was $$

The gf and I couldn't give out gifts because we're getting our first apartment together. I actually got the phone call today that we were approved

So we got $100 for target which will probably go towards groceries (we have one of -those- targets). I got another $250 in straight cash which will go towards some flea market furniture. Hoping 2014 will be good for us all (bg peeps included)

It's implied. But I see nothing wrong with it.

She's no longer my girlfriend.

She's my fiancée. Now I get to call her my ex gf.

[jmc]

She's no longer my girlfriend.

Wow, I didn't even think of that.

Congrats!

I was just bitching about the pandora jewelry a few weeks ago in spam. What better way to say, "I love you!" than to give your woman a trinket named after the bitch that released all the evil into the world.

Congrats headspace, but you are bad and should feel bad. /slap

She already had the bracelets. I just get her a charm to go on it.

Also I had the ring made at a local jeweler using gold and a diamond that were her grandmothers. So get off my dick.

[jinkazama]

Girlfriend and I set a $25 limit on gifts since neither of us really need anything and we're planning a vacation and ended up getting each other flasks. Plus she got me League of Legends shot glasses. She's a keeper. Parents Just gave money.
