[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is her money too, and he just wasted a ton of it.

The worst part is that she told him she did not want this present.

Were the earrings supposed to impress others?

I would return them and get the ring you want or  save the credit for future jewelry for your children’s wedding or graduation.[/quote]

Returning a gift like this is incredibly tacky and ungracious.[/quote]

He spent FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS of their SHARED money for something he asked repeatedly, and was told repeatedly, she didn't want.

No, it is not tacky and ungracious.  Next time instead of blowing that much on a gift for his own ego, he should actually try listening to his life partner and thinking about what SHE wants.[/quote]

It seems pretty clear he thought she would like them because she has fake diamond earring that she wears.  Clearly he was mistaken, but you seems to have issues with men generally.  Your theory that he gave them to her for “his ego” is just flat out wacky,[/quote]

He was not "mistaken."  Once again for the slow people in the back, he ASKED her repeatedly if she would want them and she TOLD him repeatedly no, she would not.  So yes, it's for his ego.

No problems with men -- happily married to a man who actually listens when he asks me questions.  Thanks for your faux concern, though, MRA.[/quote]

Yes, you sound super happy.[/quote]

Yup. That one’s as dry as a moonless prairie night. [/quote]
