I hate them for another reason - it makes men think that they SHOULD be buying women jewelry. The only time a boyfriend got me jewelry, I ended up selling it on Craigslist after the relationship was over. And because he bought me jewelry, I knew the relationship was destined to fail.
But I made a pretty penny off of it, so that was nice. |
Maybe it's just me, but I don't particularly like jewelry period. I rarely wear any, and when I do, it's only on very rare and special occasions. The only thing I would wear is a very understated necklace or something. Rings and bracelets get in the way, and I am sick of re-opening my earring holes every time I try to wear them (although I suppose that wouldn't be an issue if I wore them more often). I dunno... I just don't feel like I need to adorn myself with shiny things.
I would much rather that money be spent on an experience both of us can enjoy. The BF has talked about wanting to take me on a hot air balloon ride for my birthday. That's a real gift IMO. Something I will always remember and the experience together means so much more... not to mention that he gets to share in the enjoyment of it.
But like I said in a previous post... on VD or whatever, just a hand written note expressing how much I mean to him will make me more than happy. The first Christmas we were together we were both broke because we were moving to other side of the country. So we agreed not to spend any money and instead, he wrote a story book using the 12 days of Christmas theme, but with all of our inside jokes and stuff. He even drew hilarious pictures to go with it. It was one of the best Christmas gifts I have gotten :)
c0r version - it's the thought that counts. |

Yeah, I mean of course. But if you get me something that Im totally and obviously uninterested in, I question your "thoughts."
My feelings on jewelry are in sharp contrast to how I feel about men putting forth an effort. I like to say, "I want a man who wants to buy me jewelry, but doesn't because he knows I don't really care for it." I feel like it's hard to hold this line and also have high standards in men, generally. Basically I don't want a guy that thinks its all bull.
Im not making any sense. |

| If she wanted jewelry on V-day, then get her what she wants. Instead, you pull the V-day = consumerism card, which may be true, but is irrelevant in regards to what she wanted. Who cares about what V-day is? Just get her what she wanted. Christmas is also a consumerist holiday. I hope you were consistent in not getting anyone any presents. |

I also despise Valentine's Day, but really, if you're not trolling, you were a bit of an ass. You could have made Valentine's Day just as special by ing her softly or maybe doing the dishes for once.
Its the little things. |

Get it straight, nobody likes soft ing. At the most loosen your grip on her neck on valentines day from purple to pink. |
