Ok, I get what happened now. He bought cheap jewlery and lied about how much they cost.
Jamiedawn is a golddigging creep and got upset that she didn't get an "expensive" gift. The poor gentleman probably lied to her because she knew how much of a gold digger she was and was trying to preserve the relationship. I still say the guy's lucky that she's going to leave him, minus 170 or so dollars that could have gone to getting a new Eharmony account so he can find somebody that's not trying to use a man as a cash resource.
Men are much more than ATMs. If you really appreciated your man and men in general, you'd realize that and enjoy the time you guys spend together rather than jewlery. My GF appreciates the time we go out ice skating or hiking much more than she would ever appreciate anything made out of gold. Maybe if you were that kind of woman, you wouldn't have relationships that would only last for 4 months.
I'm done.
Yes, you are done because you're an idiot. Thanks for the laugh though!

Well, let's hear the "lies". So far, all I saw was your man lied to you about the worth of the jewlery. Did he comprimise the sanctity of the relationship in any way by financially/physically/emotionally abusing you, pretending to be exclusive with you while he was with another woman or misrepresenting who he is with the intnetion of abuse or cheating? Despite your shaming language, you still haven't answered the question. What were the "lies". So far, you seem like you're just trying to inflame people's emotions and get people to instantly sympathise with you while trying to use the man for financial gain. If you weren't really using him for financial gain, why were you waiting until after Xmas to break up with him?

I'll be waiting for your response, 49er.
First, I said there were many lies, and he had been warned time and again to stop with the lies. This was the final lie, which happened on Christmas night, which is why it happened after Christmas.
Second, tell me why I should explain to YOU the other lies he has told me.
Third, I have said a few times that I think I should at least offer the gifts back to him.
Fourth, a lie is a lie. For you to think a woman should put up with lies as long as her man isn't cheating or abusing her is very pathetic. I, on the other hand, believe a relationship can't last without trust, and when you're doubting everything that comes out of your man's mouth, it doesn't equal a great relationship.
Fifth, I told you I had been married for almost 20 years to a liar. But you think I can't stay in a long relationship?
So you'll just have to forgive me if I think trust is an important thing and refuse to put up with it again.
LOL, I knew some smart @ss would come along and think "materialistic golddigger" and over look the lies involved.
That crap would've gone straight to my trash can, right along with his lies.
Well, you know what's funny. I wouldn't even be here asking others their opinion on the gifts if I was just a cold hearted gold digger that cared more about the monitor than I do my relationship. I wouldn't even have thought at all that I should give them back. Some people just really want to see the worst in others, which is something I do not understand.
The originally posted question was clear enough and, if you had read it, you would maybe comprehend that a simple opinion on whether or not to return gifts after breaking up was all that was required. If you need a complete psychological profile and history on any poster who has a question then you're probably in the wrong place.
