BOYFRIEND WITH PETTY BEHAVIOUR
I celebrated the iPhone my boyfriend bought for me, and in my caption I wrote, “from me to me.” But a few months later, I had to let my friends know that he had taken his iPhone back just like that, without any explanation.
This was how it all started: he said he had some cash and wanted to upgrade the phone for me, that he would give the phone to a seller for the upgrade.
I gave it to him, he sold it, but I don’t even know what happened afterwards because I never got any phone again.
If I ask him, he only shouts at me.
At the end of the day, I’m back to using my former Android phone. But does it make sense to take back gifts, and how can someone avoid that whole situation instead of dealing with “take it back” drama later?
Should gifts in relationships ever come with expectations, or are they only real when they’re freely given with no strings attached?

Don't tell me that you are still dating the loser? walk away from him please...The petty mofo probably took back the phone because of your caption but that so petty...
If gifts in relationships come with expectations, then its not a gift....I hope he did not give you the gift to gbensh you and used style to collect it back? Cos some girls only part their legs when they see gifts oh...
Now take this my bad advice.....Gift him something and when leaving,make sure you take it with you without him knowing and then send him a message to end the situationship you both have....
Watin I wan use that kind man do?
ReplyDeleteThat's one trait I detest.
Break it off with him.
If you like breakup with him or not,the relationship is already over a long time ago..
ReplyDeleteThis is the disadvantage of posting everything,your boyfriend bought you a gift instead to just thank him and move on, you posted 'from me to me' like you are hiding him or have numerous boyfriend?
He doesn't trust you again simple..
If someone gifted you and you made a post about, acknowledge them...
She wants to eat her cake and have it. Why caption it from me to me? Very petty behavior.
DeleteYou want to hide the guy yet use his phone?
Someone got you a gift and you couldn't even acknowledge the person?
Sweetie go back to your android. That is the original me to me until you can afford an iPhone.
And yes I'm a woman
Spot on! Thank you
DeleteI totally agree with you.
DeleteI'm not understanding what's this are you a toddler ? Talk well na
ReplyDeleteHe bought you a phone, and you wrote "from me to me", not even acknowledging him.. That was wrong, and must you even write something sef.
ReplyDeleteHe did well collecting his phone back. Why don’t you buy an Iphone yourself and really caption it ‘from me to me’?
ReplyDeleteYou well so?? It would have been better you didn't say anything than put up that post.
ReplyDeleteHe did well, this should teach you a lesson! Na so them dey take carry person play. If e easy go and get your self an iPhone
Very ridiculous girl!!
Don't mind her. most you post everything? metcheeew.
DeleteTwo wrongs don't make a right but na your own wrong na worse pass. You are a very ungrateful person. You brought this upon yourself. There's no advice for you. Just work on this your character and do better going forward.
ReplyDeleteJust admit that you are cheating on him, because that is the only explanation of "from me to me".
ReplyDeleteHe did the right thing.
If you are so angry about it, use your money and buy phone and caption it "from me to me".
Ungrateful cheat.
Let's talk true here, you're an ingrate and a bad person, why will your boyfriend or anybody buy something for you and you won't acknowledge it especially when posting about it? It would've been better if you didn't post it at all, than posting it and lying to people that you got it yourself, what's the big deal in letting people know that he was the one that got it for you when you knew that you can't do without posting, I don't blame your guy because everybody reacts to situations differently.
ReplyDeleteI think you should address it with him and apologize, and next time anybody does you a favour, or gift you something, acknowledge it and let people know unless the person personally told you not to let people know.
You wanted to show off online that you are now using high phone and that was the underlying reason for making the post. High phone is not an achievement, it’s just a phone.
ReplyDeleteNow you are back to your android, it still works and life goes on. End the relationship and move on in peace. The high phones carry higher levels of radiation than most androids. Samsung leads in low radiation emitting phones. Perhaps you losing the phone will cause you to live a little longer and better. Thank God for life and good health.
Ask him why
ReplyDeleteIt’s like money no dey him hand
Pepper 🌶️ dem gang,... you don still use dat same pepper 🌶️ hand scratch your eyes..... lol 😂
ReplyDeleteIf she has the courage she should post her android with the same caption and hashtag #unbothered. That is the ultimate win. All nah phone and they all doing the same thing. Sit there moping over phone. Also, do not be too quick to accept anyone’s gifts. Most gifts are given with expectations. Better not to accept, especially in relationships that are not heading to marriage.
DeleteWhen you made a post about the gift, why didn't you acknowledge him? Must everything be posted online? Move on, it is well.
ReplyDeleteOloshi niyen, as in real Oloshi!...
ReplyDeleteKelvin Dat Edo Boi....
Buy another one and post from me to me again.
ReplyDeleteAre you for real. From me to me
ReplyDeleteNa the guy be the poster
ReplyDeleteIf your boyfriend bought you an expensive phone and you posted it online saying “from me to me,” honestly, that would hurt him badly. It’s not even about the phone itself, it’s the feeling of being erased or unappreciated after doing something thoughtful for someone you care about.
ReplyDeleteHowever, on the other hand, taking the gift back later wasn’t the right way to handle it. Once you give someone something, just leave it. But at the same time, appreciation matters too. A simple “thank you” or acknowledging the person who gave it to you would have gone a long way.
These days, some people want to look completely self-made online, even when they have people supporting and blessing them behind the scenes. That can create resentment in relationships because nobody likes to feel hidden or unvalued.
At the end of the day, both of them handled it badly. He shouldn’t have taken the phone back like that, but she also shouldn’t have acted like she bought it herself when she didn’t.
