Reading a thread about Christmas Lists reminded me of my first Christmas with my ex-wife.
When I first started dressing, the most important piece of jewelry for me was a pearl necklace. There is something about pearls that scream femininity to me in a way even diamonds cannot match. I always wanted my own pearl necklace but would never buy it for myself.
That first Christmas rolled around and me and the ex-wife were rather hard up for money. I managed to save enough to buy her a pearl necklace. I figured that if I liked them that much that all women would like them. Although she was very appreciative of the gift, it turns out she did not like pearls the same way I did. So I ended up buying her something I wanted really bad but now sits for years unworn in her jewlery cabinet :(
Have any of you bought something for your SO that you wish you could have bought for yourself? And continuing with that idea, have any of you bought something for your SO that you really bought for yourself (I have worn the necklace a couple of times but I did not take them when we split)?
