I accidentally broke one of my girlfriend’s curling irons yesterday after knocking it onto the floor. I apologized and immediately went online to replace it.

I googled the tymo brand’s official site, ordered her a new one, and also threw in a nicer gold Plus model. Then I showed her the order and she saw that I’d used a discount code.

She told me that using a discount made it seem like I wasn’t genuinely sorry and asked me to cancel the order and buy everything again at full price. Apparently paying the sale price was “cheap” and showed a lack of sincerity.

This honestly confused the hell out of me. She’s getting the exact same products. I’m replacing what I broke AND buying her an extra upgraded one. Why would deliberately paying more for the same thing make me more sincere?

We argued about it for a while and eventually I just canceled everything and reordered at full price.

Now I’m sitting here wondering if I’m actually missing something. Would you guys consider using a discount in this situation cheap or insincere?

edit: Thanks for all the replies. I haven’t been able to respond to a lot of the comments because I was busy writing a breakup text.

The whole thing got so ridiculous that I genuinely started second-guessing myself, so I really appreciate everyone who commented. I’m out of that mess now.

edit2：I canceled the order, but I did use the discount code to buy a new one. I decided I’m going to give it to my mom instead. I’m pretty sure she’ll love it.

I was playing Double Up with my friend tonight and managed to hit 3-star Fiora and 3-star Blitzcrank. My teammate was fighting the opponent with a 3-star Xayah, while I was against someone with a 3-star Cho’Gath.

I thought Fiora 3 would just delete anything from the board, but after she cast her ability, Cho’Gath still had HP left. Because he didn’t die fast enough, I couldn’t reinforce my teammate in time, and my teammate ended up losing to the 3-star Xayah.

We lost the game instead of getting first and I genuinely don’t know how I’m supposed to sleep tonight.😅

It’s honestly the most useless thing ever. You don’t get rewards for leveling it up, you don’t get points, and when people see that I’m over level 200 Silver, it’s kind of embarrassing.

What is even the point of this system? I really think it should be removed.
