RedRose3373 Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 My new boyfriend brought me a bracelet a week ago from fortunoffs. He brought it for me for my birthday. Its gold with gemstones, pink, yellow, green & blue topaz. Its nice, but not really my thing. I just was curious & looked it up & it was $1000. Of course i told him that i loved it, i would never hurt his feelings. My friend told me that for that price, that i should tell him that its not my style. Its not something that i would pick, because he picked it for me, I love it! That really bothered me that my friend said that. I can't imagine me telling him that i don't care for it, that would be so heartless of me. I know i would be crushed if i gave him a gift & he didn't like it. Just because its not my style doesn't mean that its not pretty. & it was his way of showing me how much he cares. I love it just for that reason. Would that bother u ladies?

To the OP, I don't know how long you've been together, you say he's a new boyfriend, but $1,000 is a lot of money to spend on someone you don't know well yet. That would throw up a red flag to me. I don't think you should let your friend's comment bother you. Some people would want to know because they want you to be happy with the gift and some people would be hurt if you didn't like their gift. You just have to decide which you think is right for you.
SmoochieFace Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 ...but $1,000 is a lot of money to spend on someone you don't know well yet. Maybe he's rich and a cool grand could be a drop in the bucket for him.
