You know the answer to this question! 😆 It’s not a big deal. Don’t create a drama hive out of what is at worst, a faux pas on your boyfriend’s part by re-gifting a necklace he’d bought for someone else, and at best is his ex trying to break the two of you up.
My advice is to let it go. If he IS lying and he did give you a necklace he meant for someone else, then he needs to learn a few manners about gift giving to girls, which I’m sure this episode has taught him. [i]If[/i] he lied because he’s embarrassed at being caught in a re-gifting scheme, this isn’t the same kind of lie that some people tell when they’re caught cheating or stealing. It’s not right, but it doesn’t have to be a deal breaker. Besides — he may be telling the truth. Regardless, you’re not going to know right now. It’s going to take time for you to get to know him better so you can be a better judge of his character. For now, let this go.
As for the ex-girlfriend, my very strong advice is to STOP engaging with her. Don’t talk to her. Don’t fight with her. Don’t defend yourself. She’s just stirring up trouble in a place that is not her business. Stay away. You can’t control her — but you can control yourself.
And don’t stress on this one. 🙂
