Speaking of gifts - He convinced me on our honeymoon to buy an $1,100 pair of diamond and gemstone earrings on credit. They're gorgeous. He wanted me to have a keepsake from our honeymoon, so I opened a credit card and bought them. And guess what? I paid most of it off, despite that we were supposed to split the cost equally. He contributed maybe $300-400 in total; I paid off the rest. I admit that it's in part my fault. I got tired of asking him for $100 every month, and often times, I knew he couldn't pay me the $100. So I basically bought the earrings.

It's the one pair of earrings that I bought with him that I will wear. I refuse to wear any of the other jewelry he bought me on his own credit. At least not now.
