[quote=Anonymous]I can't help but be honest when DH gives me jewelry I would never wear. First, I barely wear jewelry at all.  Second, the stuff he would buy me would not be at all within my taste if u did wear jewelry. Third, that fact that he didn't know this about me after over 10 years was disturbing.

It was more about him than about me. He bought me a pearl necklace after a milestone even though I had told him I would never wear a pearl necklace because "every woman should have one".

So now he has stopped buying me jewelry and asks me what I want for birthdays and holidays. He just doesn't have the knack for gift-giving and we give so few gifts a year that it's easier that way. Less romantic, yes, but also much less frustrating than what used to happen.

OP-- just let it go this time, but point out some things from various countries he visits that you would like. I would bring up how the cost kind of shocked you. I think if you share finances that it's important to discuss that.[/quote]
