What does it mean exactly when a guy gets you expensive jewelry?
80613
First of all the price of the jewelry really doesn't matter.  Some guys throw around expensive jewelry just because they can without it really meaning a thing.  Accept what he said for face value.  He likes you and he wanted to show you that by getting you something nice but he isn't ready to take this relationship to the next stage.  A commitment ring is a big step and shouldn't be given or accepted without a great deal of thought and serious consideration to what a commitment is.  Right now he is being honest with you and tell you he isn't ready for that step but that he likes you and that there could be that commitment in the futre.

Well now that depends on who it is from... \n\nIf it's from a close relative or friend, I would expect they know something about me that I like.. so a gift, even if it's from a dollar store, if it's a caring gesture, could mean more than diamonds.\n\nIf that nice thought is represented in a gift card so I can pick out what I want.. then it depends on what they THINK I like...a gift card to get my nails done for me is cool.. but if it's to Micky D's... then they have the WRONG picture of who I am, so giving a gift at all is inappropriate.\n\nCASH?... That's a hard one... that would during times of co-workers that took a collection that have no idea what you would want, or what you already have, but want to give you a bit of spending cash to further whatever the occasion is.. such as a housewarming.. or baby shower.. but it has to be given with the most thoughtful card or flowers to show that they cared enough to give a little something nice.. and the cash is a bonus.

Some guys tend to stay away from purchasing jewelry for their girlfriends because they are afraid of saying something that they may not be ready for and having the girl read into the gift. They figure for instance, if they aren't ready for a commitment that she thinks he is OR if he is ready for a commitment and he fears that she is not; he doesn't want to push her away. Finding a nice girl is just as hard for men as a women finding a nice guy...let's face it women are better at hiding things because they suspect us less...lol! Besides, maybe they feel that the heart is too played out and they want to get their special lady something a little more from the heart rather than a heart. Anyway, hope this helps. Take care.

Your ring your rules-why let anyone deter you from wearing something you like to wear. I have some fairly loud jewelry that I received as gifts from a favorite uncle-they are very old fashioned and some might say tacky, but they make me smile and remind me my uncle loves me. I wear them anytime I need a pick me up -even on a work day. They may seem out of place to an observer but are perfect for me. Wear what you want-you only live once-and if you do it right once is enough!

Be honest witn your boyfriend. It was very sweet of him to get you a promise ring, but accidents to happen. If he loves you, then he may be a little disappointed but it will be ok.\n\nMention to him that you found one just like it online and that you would like to get it. If he offers to get it for you, then let him. You can do something special for him in return. And if he's ok with the idea but doesn't offer to buy it for you, then go ahead and get it. \n\nHopefully it will eventually turn up somewhere. But if you try to secretly replace it and it turns up after that, you would have some explaining to do. - Just tell him what's going on.\n\nDo the two of you live together and use the same car? Could it have gotten lost at his place or in his car where you wouldn't have found it?

He may be surprising you with a ring.

I don't think it's a "double meaning". It just means that not all things that look attractive are good or valuable.\n\nFor example, cheap crystal glitters, but you really shouldn't try proposing to your girlfriend with that.

First rule - never give men expensive gifts until he is very serious about you (engaged). Just get him something he likes, CD, and something yummy to eat and yourself with a big red bow. I seen it happen many times - a girl "hears" he is getting her something really nice so she goes out and breaks the bank on him and when the guy ends up getting her something small because he changed his mind or couldnt afford it, the girl feels like a real idiot, and the guy feels the same. Dont go there. Remember it IS the thought that counts. \nHave fun!

well, if you like him, and he likes you, then it's perfect! Don't wait till something happens. Before you know he might be taken. Take some thought into it and talk to him. You might feel something inside of you. (that's called 'love')\nSo don't give his necklace back. He knows your worth giving it to. :)

I've never known it to mean anything other than the woman might like wearing jewerly. And whoever said it means that she's gay...you need to think before you answer because it absolutely does not mean she's gay.

Well I had the same thing happen to me, When I got my promise ring it was big and I caught everything on it, I had to turn the ring around to put on gloves or even get stuff out of my pockets. So I told him that I was frustrated with this problem and asked that when he pick out a ring for me.(not pushing) that I would really like one that was smaller and not as big. And when I got my ring it was bigger then I wanted but he did listen to what I wanted and he pick out one that was low and fit more into the band so I don't catch everything on it. \n\nI guess in his mind you show everyone your ring, So the more it is worth the more he loves you.(his ego) \n\nSo I would talk to him about a few thing that you would like to see, but don't take away his change to pick out the perfect ring he has imagined buying for you. There is the excitement about the ring for both you and him, you getting the ring and him being the one that picked out the ring you love so much.

if a girl is dating you for your car, you're better off without her.  when i'm interested in someone, i don't ask for his bank account info or to see his car.  I'm interested in HIM, not what he has.  Material possessions come and go...maybe one day you'll be really rich, and the next you'll be poor.  You want someone who likes YOU...that's what the whole "for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health" stuff means when people take wedding vows...

umm, where in the world does it state that all girls aren't after money?  Some girls just are, the high maintenance ones who always want expensive things.  Rich guys also only want beautiful woman on their arms to show off and when you got enough money ur sure to get her. For some girls its all about what she has and how much of it.

When he spends a lot of money on you.Wants nothing in return from you. Always gives a smile and says he is not cheating you.

I think you should have whatever you want. If a topaz has sentimental meaning for you, that's far more important than a diamond. Giving diamonds is a tradition someone else started; it's not your tradition. Too many people follow the herd and do what they think everyone else wants them to do. Good for you for wanting to do your own thing. What I think is classy  and beautiful is a woman with a wedding band and no engagement band at all, so you could consider that, and wear the topaz separately.

Walmart has some very nice promise rings.  It is really the thought that counts not how much you spend on the ring.  And if it does she's not the right girl.
