[quote=Anonymous]Well, the money does bother me quite a bit. I could have spent the same amount in fifteen diferent ways and would have been a lot happier. If it was $100 or thereabouts I would just say "Thanks, babe, it's awesome!", wear it a few times and be done. But it was a lot of money, (yes, we have joint finances), and perhaps even  more than that I think what bugs me is that after 15+ years of marriage DH still doesn't seem to know me. Of all the things I could spend $ on, jewelery is pretty close to the bottom of the list, so for him to go outside of both of our financial comfort zones for a questionable piece at best is weird.

Oh, and I did wear it out today (we went out for a family lunch), and it is really poorly designed as well, something that probably is only apparent upon wearing it - it does not lay flat like it is supposed to, but twists up and gets out of "alignment" with every move, so I keep playing with it non-stop to keep fixing it. Ugh! (Yes, I know I sound like a spoiled brat, but since I can't really say anything to him I am just venting here. Talk about first world problems. I will go away now - thanks for listening!)[/quote]
