Allen's friend bought a bag for his girlfriend on her birthday.
The next time he meets her, she has the same bag with her.
He compliments the bag and asks her, "where did you buy the bag from?"
For some reason, when I read the sentence above it seems like Allen and not his friend met the friend's girlfriend.
What's actually being said - "Allen's friend being as absent-minded as he is, forgot that he bought the bag as a gift for her."
Would you say the first paragraph is correct grammatically and doesn't imply what I am deriving from it?
