CHRISTMAS ETIQUETTE

A forlorn FrontBurnervian Female doesn’t know how to feel:

My boyfriend is all in a tither over Christmas. Although we have been dating for almost 6 months and spend almost every night together, he feels that any nice Christmas gift will give me “a false sense of security” and “a set of expectations that he doesn’t want to be responsible for.” WTF? Am I overreacting when I get made at this?

Honey, have you had your self esteem looked at lately? Hello, he’s offside by a mile! Anything, other than a diamond ring, is acceptable and doesn’t carry an automatic expectation of commitment. Honestly, the fact that he wants to sleep with you every night creates, in my mind, some level of commitment expectation. Bag him or don’t shag him. If you pick the later, you’ll get the diamond. Next?
