Search Results: expensive gifts

Say for example, your partner gives you a very expensive gift like a pair of lovely diamond earrings or a Rolex watch, but unfortunately, you break up. Would you return the gift or keep it?

The Option C is meant to be humorous, but hey, I don’t judge.

I, personally, would give it back to my ex because I do not want anything that reminds me of them. How about yourself?

My friend just dumped her boyfriend. He's been spending it all on expensive places and things. She discussed her concern about it with him several months ago, the bills and her worries about how they would provide for a child in the future if he continues spending money like crazy. He really thought she was complaining too much and that she should be happy he's showering her with great gifts.

He kept inquiring debt and she dumped him. Is it right to dump a boyfriend for that reason? If he's careless about his money, spends it on expensive things and acquiring overdue bills?

So from time to time I have been known to drop a few hundred dollars on friends just because I see them want something I know they can't afford even though they never asked me to do it. I have bought different friends a bed frame and mattress, a Nintendo Switch, sent them money just so they could order out, and even just dropped a few hundred so one friend could start a secured credit card and build credit for a house she wants one day.

I have been there myself and know what it is like to struggle. I remember a time when $25 was our monthly grocery budget. I never asked for money, but it would have probably been nice to get it. I feel like I have been blessed financially now with our jobs, my kids are well taken care of and we have everything we could possibly want. My spouse is perfectly fine with it, but I worry about the perception of it.

Would you be grateful if it were you receiving the gift or would you feel like that person is flaunting their money over you?

On my birthday my boyfriend was visiting his mother, I was fine with it, and he met me on the weekends, he gave me a bottle of wine said it's very expensive, it's mine now, I can decide however I want, bring home to share with friends or drink here, I said let me leave it in your of your place first, I will take it away. That night there was no birthday cake or birthday meal, the other morning I left and forget to bring the wine. After that he didn't mention the wine anymore. One week later he visit his best friend birthday, took three hours train and bought him a perfume. I said great, he said it's not price but the gesture and heart that he put in, I asked him but why U don't remind me to bring my birthday gift for so long, I think U just don't care about my birthday and when U bought the wine U also did not really put that much heart inside. He said I should appreciate it, because I just got a Dior lipstick on velentise day, I shouldn't complain or compare too much, why can't we just have nice meals and I should appreciate that he invited me meals everytime. But I also cook for him many times and bring fruits and honey and junger everytime he got ill, I never ask him to appreciate me. Should I break up with him?
