[quote=Anonymous]My husband just gave me a pair of large diamond earrings for a holiday gift. I'm trying to smile and show gratitude but inside I feel upset; he probably spent $5,000 on them, which was not the best choice in a year that we need some home renovations and new computers, and our child's daycare has become very expensive. I know I'm being a jerk but this was not wise, and he clearly has not been listening to me!

He has asked me numerous times over the last couple of years about diamond earrings and I have repeatedly told him I didn't want any. I have good small fakes that I'm comfortable with because I don't have to pay to insure them and I don't worry about losing them. And I just don't care about jewelry. I have told him - repeatedly - that the only thing I might want is a thin eternity band to match the band of my engagement ring.

I feel like he doesn't listen to me and instead does what he thinks a man is supposed to do. He has no idea what is important to me and what is not. Even when I explicitly tell him. [/quote]
