Settle this argument please.

Dp and I have a love affair with Whitby. When dp proposed my engagement ring was whitby jet. I have earrings and necklaces to match. It means a lot to me.

Anyway, it’s our babysitters 18th soon, she’s lovely and we get on well. I want to get her a present But I’m rubbish at presents so Iv left it to dp. He’s bought her a whitby jet cross necklace. She’s quite gothic so I know she will love it.

But I’m so upset. I can’t pin point why but I feel really upset.

I have given jewellery to friends and work colleagues. Knowing their taste & preferred brand
In my work jewellery has been given as leaving gifts,and recipient was delighted
I cannot see any logic or rationale to only partners give/receive jewellery
Jewellery (excluding wedding/engagement/eternity) is a safe & appropriate choice
Now if the rule were only partners give/receive underwear that I would understand.
