k this happened in camp. I made up a different reason but in reality this was the main reason. Anyway i bought her and a couple of my other girl roommates in camp a matreshka(like a doll that opens up and has more dolls inside of it). But I also bought a fairly expensive painting only for her. When she found out I bought the matreshka's to 2 more girls she said boyfriends dont do that and got pissed. I didnt mention the painting i bought and kept my mouth shut but got upset and later broke up. So did i overreact or not?

I think some people are confused here. I gave her the painting with the matreshka. And she was still upset over the other matreshka's.

I dont see any reason for your gf to get pissed off on such matter.its normal to buy gifts to other friends irrespective of gender.well,it was absolutely fine in your case to gift other female friends too.its your wish to gift things to whoever you want.Just coz your were her boy friend doesnt mean that you should stop caring for others..You deserve someone more mature though you still have an option to explain to her what your true intention was and tell her that you care much about her and she is very special,thats why you bought a special painting just for her.i hope she is mature enough to understand that you love her.

Did you overreact? Hell yes. A women doesn't believe she is special if you bought her the exact same gift you brought another women. So of course she will be upset. You should have explained to her why, for one she and the other girls got the same thing and two that you had an additional gift her. You better call her and communicate with her your feelings to her reaction and listen to her when she explains hers

I think you did, but I can understand why you broke up with her. You both kinda made mistakes, though. She was a little too clingy and you probably should have made clear that she was more important to you than the other girls you gave dolls to.

I think you both overreacted.. Why didn't you give her the painting when you gave her the matreshka? If you want to continue seeing her then step up to the plate an apologize for your behavior and see where it can go.

I understand that she didnt have to get so upset in your eyes but YES. You did overreact by breaking up with her because of something like this. She just wanted to feel more special and didnt because she saw that you involved other girls in this. Dont forget she doesn't know about the painting, so at this time in her mind frame, wat seperated her from the other girls? Get it? I think you should tell her wat you did for her, and talk to her about who REALLY means something to you...her. Tell her that you dont wanna lose her over this.

you kind of did overreact, i mean, she thought that the matreshka was bought for her and only her, she shouldnt have acted like that though, but girls are weird, we need to know we're special and we're your one and only, you should have given her the painting and explained that the matreshka wasnt that important, and that she means everything to you, then she would have felt bad for overreacting about the matreshka. hope this helps!

no i dont think you over reacteed, if anything i think your girl friend is spoilt, and if my boyfriend bought 2 other girls a gift, i would love him even more for being so thoughtful towards others...plus, it would have made her look like she has the best boyfriend in the world!
her loss sweetie!

Yeah i think that you overreacted because she just like most women and wants her boyfriend to herself and is jealous when it comes to her man doing for some other woman.

I don't think so. It's pretty hard not to react strongly to a kick in the "gut". If nothing else, you have found out what she thinks of you.
