Okay x-mas morning we all woke up and unwrapped the presents. My better half told me that he didn't like his presents. That I should not have bought him tools for x-mas and the leather jacket was not the one he wanted and that they were crappy presents. I was hurt - he then told me his ex's bought a better x-mas for him then I did. I was really hurt by this point and then he told me to suck it up and stop being down. How would you handle this situation?

How do you feel like really, cause honestly that was some B*ULLSHIT that's not what Christmas is about, and to tell you the truth any man that would say that to you about his f*ckin Christmas gifts that you bought and pick out from the bottom of your heart and then adds insult to entry by telling you his ex girlfriend bought him better gifts and then goes on to tell you to suck it up! Are you serious you need to tell that was some selfish b*llshit to say and only a heartless person that really doesn't' love you would address the situation like that. Even if he wasn't completely happy with his gifts he could went about it another way that would have made you say oh okay well I'll take this back and well go and get you what you really want. On some real sh*t someone that loves you wouldn't feel that way about his gifts because he would love what you bought because he loves you, you know and to bring up the ex maybe you need to reconsider your relationship with him cause he sounds like a selfish son-of-a-b*tch. Tell him how you feel good luck with that.

Well, first you should come to the realization that he is NOT your better half! What a jerk! I consider Christmas a time to spend with family and friends. My boyfriend and I agreed to not exchange gifts, but instead to spend a weekend somewhere together. Yours sounds greedy and demanding and very thoughtless about your feelings.
Tell him if his ex was so good at getting him gifts, to go back with her and let you find a decent man!
Okay, now that I have given my opinion, I will tell you what you could do to handle it, assuming you want to stay with him.
Tell him that you are really hurt by the way he treated you and that when you bought him the gifts, it was with only the best intentions. I think he owes you an apology, but he doesn't sound mature enough to give you one, so you may have to let this slide to make peace.
If this kind of behavior is typical for him, please reconsider if you really want to be with someone like that.

He definatly sound mentaly abusive. You don't deserve that at all. You shouldn't call him your better half because it's obvious that you are his better half and not the other way around. You have every right to be mad at this jerk. In my opinion You need to leave his *** behind, cause no girl should have to put up with crap like that he's just rubbing s*** in your face. Trust your intuition, what do you think you should do.

How long have you been together? Less than a year, take the gifts back and dump him. I wouldn't trust anyone that compares one relationship or ex to another. Did his ex get him a gift this year? I find that a bit strange. Anyway you slice it, you should be mad at they way he talked to you. It is a very shallow thing to say.

First of all you treat people as you want to be treated so as far as I can see he doesn't think much of himself. I think you have every right to be upset. I got bras and a robe for Christmas but I said I loved it and went on with a smile, why ruin every ones day. As far as how to handle the situation I think you tried being honest but he cares for himself more than you so move on. Best of luck to you.

I would probably take the gifts back and use the money to buy myself something. I think that he is inconsiderate of your feelings, and if he didn't like the gifts then he could've found a better way to tell you. So, in my opinion, he doesn't deserve anything from you.

Wow. Well I hope you don't have kids with this person. Either he was just having a very bad day, or he is a complete ***. If this was just a one time thing I'd let it slide that he was just in a very crappy mood, but if he does stuff like this even sometimes, I'd leave him.

He's your BETTER half???? Scary thought!
Next year, if you're fool enough to still be with him, give him a large piece of gift-wrapped coal---
Oh, and I sure hope you saved your receipts. I'm sure you could use the cash you spent on him for something for yourself!
Take your 'inferior' gifts back to the store for refunds!

What an asssssssss! Tell him to exchange the jacket, but tell him to shove the tools. Then tell him he is a crappy lover.
