[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every single year my husband asks what I want for my birthday, I say 'some jewelry would be nice, just not anything with beads or colored gems.' And every time he gets me beads and colored gems. Then he asks why I don't wear them and I say 'beads and colored gems aren't really my thing, I prefer plain gold or silver.' This has been going on for about 10 years. IMO I think it is subconsciously passive aggressive. [/quote] Maybe don't tell him what you don't want, because that sticks out in his head (she said the words "beads" and "colored gems!" Got it. Check). Tell him "I want a gold chain" or I want some silver hoop earrings. Or show him a picture with a link to exactly what you want. Or three options of things you want. The "Don't do this" doesn't work. You have to say "I want exactly THIS"[/quote]
