Hey, Waffle gang, I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more

relationship stories and if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider? Then I'll like,

subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. Let's crack on with today's first story which comes

from Birthday Book and says says I the arseoll

for wanting to keep an expensive birthday gift and makes my boyfriend uncomfortable.

I female just turned 25. Have a friend Logan male 25 and we've been friends since we were 7

or 8. I have a boyfriend Matt who I've been dating for seven months.

My birthday was last week and I had a dinner party for some friends before we all went out to a club.

There was eight of us including Logan and Matt.

We had a little bit of a gift opening before dessert and Logan gifted me an old copy of the Great Gatsby.

The book has special significance to us, because for many years, Logan and I lived in different

countries. We kept in contact, but we didn't see each other in person for about four years.

We finally got our parents to agree for me to fly to his country to visit in 2013.

We were talking about what we were going to do on the visit and I really wanted to go and see

the great Gatsby movie, which had just come out, as it is my favorite book. Logan had never

even heard of it. And I said he had to read it before we went to see the movie. Logan was never academic

and to this day it is the only fiction book he's ever read all the way through. Not counting

children's books. Whenever I ask him to do me a favor, he always replies with, I've read the

great Gatsby for you, so I may as well. And it's a running joke.

We always go big on birthdays, but this book means so much to me.

The day after, Matt said he felt the book was an inappropriate gift because of how expensive

it is.
