I Locked Myself in the Bathroom Humiliated and Crying after Seeing the Christmas Gift My Fiancé Got Me

On Reddit’s “AITA” forum on January 1, 2022, an anonymous woman shared her Christmas disappointment. Engaged to Dave, she anticipated a popular fuzzy bag but received an $8,000 NFT art picture of a monkey on Christmas Eve. Laughter ensued, making her more embarrassed. Dave defended the gift, calling it an investment, while accusing her of being materialistic. Upset, she left abruptly, later questioning if she was wrong in her reaction.

In an update on January 9, 2022, she clarified details and revealed Dave’s plan to absorb the NFT cost. Dave apologized sincerely during a meeting at the hotel, acknowledging the misguided anger and racial concerns. Despite contemplating leaving, she forgave him, reaffirming their relationship. Dave gifted her art supplies, and they reached a happy resolution.

Quoting the woman, “AITA for my reaction to my [fiancé’s] Christmas gift?” She later shared, “[Dave] did end up getting me a make-up gift. Two Ohuhu sketchbooks and their 320pc. marker set I’ve had my eye on.” The story underscores miscommunication, racial sensitivity, and the couple’s effort to mend their relationship.
