Can't really complain about any of mine but in general think presents are a complete waste of time as an adult.

I did however get a watch as a present years ago after weeks of telling them I didn't want a watch as I'd never wear one ...they thought I was using reverse psychology

The worst gifts are those that are being passed on. Bought in the Christmas consumerism frenzy by people who believe they have to give a present to everyone around them. So things like 3 jars of relish, chutney and pickles wrapped in a cute miniture Hessian bag or spangly obnoxious scented candles in a pink basket etc. make the round because nobody wants them. Simplest solution to get rid of them is gifting to the next person.

Gotta be a coat my ex got me which was 10 sizes too big and had the texture of a black bin bag...

Then for my 22nd birthday he got me anti aging skincare set.

Another ex got me a kids toy scooter for Xmas after me saying I'd love to get one of those e-scooters to commute to work (way before the e-scooters were so popular).

"Best" gift of all which topped everything else - my ex stole my bank card while I was asleep and bought me a bouquet of flowers and a big Teddy for valentines day.

He was lucky I didn't use his ass as a vase

To this day I hate stuffed toys...

Missus

Last few years , I have received a couple of those male grooming kits in leatherette pouches. Usually a tweezers, razor,nail clippers and a comb. They always fall apart once you try to use them. Must be from wish. Think my family are trying to tell me something, cheapskate feckers

Rule with partner no household gifts as thay means they get to use it as well so not my gift. But I do think my gift was bad one but it was funny one,for their birthday. Car key with their favourite car make as keyring and telling them the rest is outside the front door. Only to be a model car of what they would love to own

A weighing scales would be the logical choice after that.

"Ex husband a golfing umbrella, never played golf ? in my life"

In fairness now, the umbrella part is much more relevant than the "golfing" bit.

"My girlfriend at the time, gave me a watch for Christmas and then dumped me on New Year's Eve, the watch broke within a month, not my fault though "

Where I'm from there's a superstition not to give your other half a watch or shoes as a gift.

As giving a watch means that you're counting the time when you're with them and giving shoes means giving them footwear to walk away from you.

There has been a point in my previous relationships where I've gifted my exes shoes and watches on purpose, secterly hoping that they will go away
