;) Had to. :hi:
BTW, MrG got my love by the way he looked in a tough guy, leather motorcycle jacket cuddling my two year old baby in her pink fuzzy sleeper and singing her to sleep. :hi:

7. Sadly I really think they do |

I have so many male friends who date shallow model types and then turn around and complain that they are dating shallow women!
Duh, you only want her for herlooks; that's why she only cares about your money

10. I didn't bother replying to the diamond thread |
|
But my hubby knows what works for me. The first year we were together, he bought me over $300 worth of tools for my birthday. He was so nervous when I opened them - he cautioned me that he either did very well or he is a complete idiot. He did very well - it was a great gift. :loveya:
I like simple silver jewelry but I'm a pretty practical gal. Yesterday he surprised me with a new riding whip. He knows me well.

by coming home one afternoon, not with a bouquet of roses or some such, but with a collection of Shakespeare tragedies for me. :)

13. Any woman whose affection can be bought with diamonds |

isn't really worth the cost. You know what I'm saying? I don't like diamonds or flowers or other stupid gifts. Give me something that shows you have taken the time to learn what I like.
Or even better, give me your time and attention.
Oops, on edit: :hi:

15. Diamonds wouldn't work with my wife |

If I showed up with a skid of 100-percent wool yarn in Natural color, that would be a different story.

The problem is , not enough men try to buy love with diamonds. Dig deep boys, Christmas is here and us girls need bling. I promise you, it will be worth it!;)

17. Not a big fan of diamonds, so I guess it wouldn't work with me. |
|
I have always been concerned with "conflict" diamonds (diamonds mined and sold to finance terror campaigns in Africa and elsewhere). I recently read an article that the diamond industry isn't following its own plan on not selling these diamonds and that a person never knows if they are buying one of them or not.

Had me the moment he walked through the door of the bar we were in wearing a Robin Hood outfit. *sigh* I knew he was the one I would marry the moment I saw him.

24. No, some of us never even consider it. |

I would never pay thousands of dollars or even hundreds on a shiny rock. Fortunately the wife is likeminded and practical.
