what to do...
Permalink Closed


i found out what my boyfriend is getting me for xmas. he showed it to my sister and she told me (after much persuasion on my part). he is getting me this suede fur/shearling lined jacket from bebe. i have nothing against bebe or suede/shearling, but i know that the jacket is not me. at all. now, what do i do? should my sister intervene? the only problem with this is that when would he go out and buy another gift? also, i know he put a lot of thought and time into it. he went to the mall 2 days in a row and he HATES the mall with a passion. im thinking im going to have to tell him the truth? that even though its a beautiful coat and that i appreciate the thought he put into it, it's just not my style? and then would it be acceptable to return it? thoughts? heeeeelp!!

Have your sister say that you happened to mention to her that you don't need a coat/don't like the color brown/don't like bebe, etc.

I agree. have your sister call him and tell him that she was just with you and that she noticed you have one similar, or that she rememberd you dont care for that kind of style or something like that. Good luck.......

I agree, this should work, although I hope your sister is a good liar... Good luck!

Have your sister intervene or just be honest with him or you're doomed for a lifetime of bad gifts! Of course when you get it you can always say it doesn't fit and then when you take it back it could be out of your size and then you just buy something else with it.

Woah - I'd have my sister call and say we went to the mall the other day and she really didn't like that coat. Would that work at all?


Eek! Sucky situation. Good luck!
