Amazon!
A few years ago when money wasn't exactly in abundance I decided to treat myself for my birthday and ordered a futurama dvd box set.

I'd really wanted it and it felt like a nice present to myself on my birthday.

On the day it arrived (day before my birthday) my girlfriend said she hadn't been able to get me a birthday present.

Long story short she wrapped up and gave me the dvd set I had bought for myself.

Not sure what was worse, the fact I'd paid for it or that while pointlessly unwrapping it I already knew exactly what it was inside.

I have done exactly the same with a past girlfriend.
Is the following correct?:

She feels bad that she hasn't bought you a present, which means in female logic that it's your fault that she's feeling bad, so you wrap up something you've bought yourself for an easy life.

Am I right?

spot on
Somehow feels even worse than "can I borrow £20 to buy you a birthday present".

If a man said that to his girlfriend
he would be in a world of trouble.

she should have gift-wrapped herself
and given you any sexual fantasy you wanted for your birthday.
that's what i'd have done.
