Edit: Or are you just a super stingy bastard who never gives your girl anything (except your friendship)?
Are you implying that I'm a partner in the firm of Maniac and Marley?

She's even more wonderful than she sounds! We met several years back playing games over the internet, and somehow made what was for many years a long distance relationship work.
The actual story of that event is this: One Christmas time about 8 years ago, I was a single father who had just lost his job and was pretty much financially destitute. Managing to continue to provide for my son was difficult enough. I couldn't afford to give any Christmas gifts to anyone that year. We were chatting in an irc pm that evening, and the conversation went something like this (The log is on another computer, so I'm paraphrasing):
me: Some boyfriend I am. I can't even afford to get you anything for Christmas.
her: That's okay. I don't need material things from you. Your friendship is the nicest gift that I have ever recieved.
me: *cries
I literally cried so hard I couldn't see to send another message for more than 10 minutes. At which time I sent something along the lines of: I want to hug you and I never want to let go.
End threadjack.
