I have never shown an interest in jewelry boxes (she bought me another one previously, which was also quite large, and I still have it buried in my closet) and especially not of this size! I feel really guilty because I would very much like to return it, but I don't want to hurt her feelings because she paid so much for it. I am still living in my parent's home and I know she will notice if I am not using it. What should I do?
This happens to everyone I think lol
Have you heard of the stereotype of getting a festive christmas sweater from you grandma that is itchy and ugly?

Maybe you could take this as a sign that your not being honest to yourself with the energy you show to her?
Just a suggestion.
But as long as you lern something from this experience and do something different in the future... then it is a good gift really? isnt it
