My boyfriend asked me what I wanted for Christmas (cause I never talk about material things that I want, so he had to ask), and I said an external hard drive (cause I don't have one). Last week he told me that he is getting himself a brand new external drive, and that for Christmas he was just going to give me his old one (which is at least a year old, and 80 gigs).
I said, "Are you serious? You're going to give me your cast-off for Christmas?" and he said, "yeah, what's the problem?" and I said, "Can you at least gift wrap it?" and he said, "I didn't know you were going to get so snooty about it - that's a $200 drive! It has firewire!"
Every time I've talked to him since then he's talked about how he's not going to give me the drive anymore because I "snubbed" it.
Was I being snotty? I don't feel like I was.
(Just to give you the other side of the coin, I got him a brand new Wii game, a new DVD, four record frames, and a framed poster).
