    The first time I bought tampons and pads for a girlfriend I was about 19 and didn’t know there were different sizes so I just grabbed the first package I saw. I don’t recall what it was labeled but it was the kind that women typically get right after giving birth haha.

      When I bought some for my partner I was also sent with a list of snacks to buy. I did a much better job at getting the snacks but at least the pads were usable so I could have done worse

        She maybe looked offended or confused for about two seconds before she realized I just had no idea what I was doing lol. She told her mom and two sisters who all got a good laugh over it too. She was also rather busty but otherwise short and and kind of petite. I got her a T-shirt as a gift early in our relationship. I’m about 5" 11 and she was about 5" 3. I wear large or medium shirts. So I figured she must wear small to medium. I think I picked a small for her. As soon as she saw it she just started laughing and asked how she was supposed to get her boobs in there. I was hopeless in my teens haha.
