Sorry i posted this in the General Advice forum but I want the point of view of some women who maybe have some experience with this kind of thing.
I have an issue that's been bugging me for awhile. I don't know if I'm at fault or not. Please bear with me.
So my girlfriend and I have been together a bit over a year or so and we have grown very close in this time. I've run in to an annoying snag, however. Awhile back I was looking at a nice car for sale in a field. It is literally the car of my dreams. I already have a nice truck but I really wanted this car.I figured I could buy it for her to use until we got her a car of her own. One day she was with me in my truck as we were driving by the car and I pointed it out and said, "What if I bought you that car? I mean to get you by until we can get you a nice one? Then I can fix it up for me!" She said "That car is hideous. I wouldn't want it" I thought to myself, "I'll gladly get it for me then!"
Several months went by and finally I said "Screw it" and bought the car for me. After about a week of her seeing people really like my car she started asking to use it and I obliged.
She keeps telling people I bought it for her and calling it her car. She tries to hide it but gets upset at me when I say I didn't' buy it for her, even when we just joke around about it.
My question is this; was I being an Indian giver in this case? Did I break my word? I want to know if I screwed up here.
Thanks for reading all that!
