YTA and a selfish brat. You could have exchanged it for a color you do like, or hell, watched a video on YouTube on how to paint it yourself. Your dad bought you an INCREDIBLY generous gift, but your bratty focus on “aesthetic” meant that he *wasted* $700 (a not small amount of money) AND you made your boyfriend spend another $700 on you. I hope neither one of them buys you another present, like.. ever.
