How do i tell or should i tell dh that his valentines gift is too expensive and he should take it back....

[mum2sam]

Dh gave me my valentines gift early today as he was too excited to wait until 2moro. He had had chosen it himself a little necklace with a cross with diamonds.I had a sneaky look at the receipt and saw he had paid £106 for it. Its a lovely necklace but very delicate not ideal with ds and plus id never guess it was that much and to eb honest I wouuld be happy with a £20 necklace sholud I say something or leave it be. I hate wasting money on something when I could be just as happy as something less. All ive got dh is love vouchers, a pampering set and me all to himself for the night

Wow what a lovely dh. If he wants to spend that much on you, enjoy it, he obviously loves you a lot. Dont worry that your present hasnt cost as much I should think all your dh wants is you

In answer to whether you tell him how you feel about the cost I would keep quiet unless you needed the money for bills etc. It sounds as though he has put a lot of effort into this present and is proud of his choice. If he thinks you dont like it, appreciate it, he will be very upset and the last thing you want on valentine night is an argument. So keep quiet and enjoy having such a sweet and generous dh.

Im lucky if I get a £5 bunch of flowers from my DH and I only get that if everyone keeps on at him. This year I know he has got me chocs even though i have just started on a diet and joined the gym.

Keep quiet and enjoy the fact he's romantic enough to bother and think about poor souls like me who's dp wont have even got them a card nevermind a present because Valentines is just a commercial made up holiday..I agree with this but still want some feckin romance! Do I sound at all bitter?
