If someone gave you a gift that was alot of money to buy would you wear it?

I will still wear it but on special occasion. I never research on how much a gift that was given to me really cost, for me is the thought that counts. No matter what the gift is just $ 1 in amount and wrap with colorful christmas wrapper with ribbons, as long as this person who have given me the gift remember me , that really amaze me and really make me happy. I am blinded by the price , sometimes i just assume that when I received a jewel or accessories it is totally expensive so I have to take care of it. i only wear it on occasion that fits to the jewelry and if that jewelry is watch of course I will use it.

I've never thought about that. I guess because I've never received such an expensive gift before. If someone bought me a really expensive dress, jacket or coat I would be so afraid that I would sit on a dirty chair or couch or spill something on it. Maybe the only times I would wear it would be around them. Of course, not ALL the time when they were around! Then it would start looking kind of suspicious! LOL!

my hubby gave me a expensive gold, diamond and saphire necklace and earring set and i hardly ever wear it. a) because it is expensive but b)because we are so much poorer now than we were when he gave it to me.

We have friends who are very wealthy. They invited us to dinner one cold night in January. They drove us downtown to a Nice Restaurant, and parked about a block away. Before we left the car our friend took off his coat and locked it in the trunk. He explained that he didn't like leaving a $600.00 jacket on a rack in the restaurant. My question is, why leave an expensive coat in the car on a cold night, and freeze? Wouldn't it be better to wear a cheaper coat and be warm? This incident happened many years ago, and I've never forgotten it. Its always good for a laugh! (I thank God I'm not a millionaire)

I wouldn't be scared to wear it or be afraid that I would lose it. I would just be careful where I wore it. For instance, I would wear it out on special occasions or to church, but not wear it just to clean the house or to play outside with my children. I would also wear it when with the person who gave it to me to show them that what they gave me is special and that I appreciate that they gave it to me. I would also show them that I enjoy it.

i would wear it but only if i liked it,i don't like expensive gifts,i prefer ones that come from the heart,not the wallet

If someone gave me an expensive gift, I would use it or wear it with pride, and I would take very good care of it, so that I would not lose it. I have some nice jewellery that i wear, and my computer wasn't cheap either, but I use that too. We have to use these things, and take care of them, not avoid them simply because they are expensive.

If it cost lots It better be insured for I am going to wear it.

Years ago I received a purse that at that time cost over $100. I use it for special occasions. and pack it away nicely when I dont use it.

The person wanted me to wear it, that is why he/she spent so much money to buy it. We should respect that feeling is it not? So I am sure I will wear it for occasions and be careful with it. The moment I come home, I will keep it in a safe place and in a safe manner.

Hello jj. I got a very nice and expensive watch from my best friend and I kept it for a couple of years before I started to wear it. Now I am wearing this watch given to me by my best friend after my previous watch went wrong. Otherwise I would still have well kept it in my drawer without wearing it. But anyway I think that it is a good idea for me to wear it as it always reminds me of my best friend due to my wearing it every day.

If it is something that I real do not like then I would not wear it all the time. I would make sure that I wore it when they were around so I would not hurt their feelings. I am sure though that if I did not wear it all the time when they were around they would understand.

One of the ways to appreciate a friend's gift is by using it. For me , it doesn;t matter if is expensive or cheaper, as they say it's the thought that counts. Another was of showing your gratefulness is by taking care of that gift. However there are things beyond your control and one of them is by losing that gift which is not intentional. Personally, i would not take it against a friend if a gift of mine was lost. Instead i would appreciate that that friend of mine liked the gift since he/she was wearing. It would just gave me more motivation to give the same gift. Cheers!

Well not quite scared, but I think.. no matter how high or low the price of the gift... as long as it is a gift.. it means that the person who gave it wants you to wear it. He/she gave it for the reason that he/she thinks you would like it to wear as much as possible everyday. Would you be happy to see the gift you gave being wear by the receiver?.. of course you'll do, because it means to you that he/she likes your gift. So no matter what price the gift might have... I would not be scared to wear it coz I know in myself that I could take good care of every gift given to me.

It depends on what it is. And if I like it yes. If I don't then I would just wear it around them for their benefit. It is hard to tell someone you don't like something they got you, especially if it is expensive. Now I might be thought of as weird, but I don't like diamond jewelry or gold jewelry much. I wear silver, and silver without gems (I have 3 rings that are the exceptions and 2 have turquoise and were made by my GG Grandfather and the other was a gift with my birthstone in it from my GG Grandfather). So if my boyfriend got me diamond earrings or something I would wear them on a special occassion with him, but that would be it. If it was clothes I would probably wear it at least once around that person to be polite.
