How Much Does It Cost?

Am I a bad person or does everyone check to see how much a gift to them costs? For valentine's Day my girlfriend got me a framed picture of Yankee Stadium with four boys standing in front of it. It's the most thoughtful gift in the world. I love it and I can't wait to get it hung on my wall, but...



I was on the internet today and I decided to check to see how much she spent. In the middle of doing that I decided that it was the wrong thing to do. Who cares how much she spent on me? But in talking with some of my friends I decided that it wasn't so bad.

The logic, however flawed it might be, was to check to see how much she spent, just to make sure I outdid her. Also, they told me, I had to make sure I outdid that present any time I buy one.

This is getting a little out of hand. So, if I check am I a bad person? I say yes...I'm greedy and bad and I don't deserve a present from her ever again. Please tell me I'm over-reacting by posting a comment.
