My boyfriend and I have been together for a long time and every holiday, anniversary or birthday I always inevitably get heart shaped jewelry. It’s not anything horrible and it’s not the end of the world I know but it’s never something I’ve ever mentioned liking to him.It’s not just me either, I notice he buys his mother heart shaped jewelry for Mother’s Day as well. I love him so much and I’m grateful for the sentiment but I feel like I have enough heart shaped jewelry and just once I’d like to be surprised or find out that he actually pays attention to what I like. I’ve tried everything, mentioning things I like, showing him things I like, showing him things while saying “you know I’d really like that!” Hoping that one of them will eventually stick but every time a date comes around it’s a heart shaped necklace or ring or bracelet.I don’t have the heart to tell him something so mean like “stop buying me that” or that I don’t really like it. I don’t know what else to do. It also doesn’t make me feel very special since it seems to be his go-to gift to any woman. I know he definitely doesn’t do it to hurt feelings or because he’s trying to ignore what I say. I think he just gets nervous with gift giving and forgets what I’ve said so he just goes back to the same thing he buys any lady because it’s always worked before. via /r/Gifts https://www.reddit.com/r/Gifts/comments/9fowcx/my_boyfriend_isnt_so_great_at_gift_giving/?utm_source=ifttt
