A friend of mine's boyfriend of 3 years decided to get her a random gift, a gold necklace with a diamond heart pendant, now she's very thrilled that he was thinking about her and got her this gift but now feels bad because she knows it's not something she would wear and kind of feels bad about it because she's thankful for the gift but doesn't want to hurt his feelings by telling him she doesn't like gold and diamonds (She likes rubies and silver).
Anyways, that's the situation and it got me wondering; Why do most men assume all women like diamonds and gold? Some of us don't and you would think after being with her 3 years he would know her well enough to know gold and diamonds aren't her thing. She's asked me how to approach him about it without hurting his feelings and, honestly, I don't know what to tell her (as I'm always very clear on my likes and dislikes so I never have issues like this) any suggestions on how I could help her on this one?
