cheap cellphone for special someone

I had this person who is very special to me. We've been in a relationship for seven years. We've been through many obstacles in life, but today there are so many things that I had to consider. One day, he wishes me for something material, a cellphone. He told me that he has plans why he's asking me that. Though I'm very much clueless of what he is planning. But deep inside of me, I wanted to buy him what he wants. He knows I'm an average person, who earns not that much. I'm thinking of buying a cheap cellphone for him (which is so much different from what he is expecting). I hope he would appreciate. And now I'm preparing with his plan after I gave him the phone.

awwww i think you can get him a cheap phone. that would already be very special and great. it is not really the price that counts, but the thought and your effort of getting him one especially knowing that you don't earn the much. he would still appreciate it that is if he cares about you and your feelings and understands why you just had to get him a cheap one. but that is already so sweet of you to get him a cellphone. take care and i wish you happiness in you relationship. happy mylotting.

Hmmm thats a diffucult situation.I think that people should not ask that from their partners... material things like that is something that the other person gives full. From your message , he's expecting something and in return your expecting something too. What if you both not meet each others expectation ... I hope it works out for you. If i was in your shoe's I would tell him the truth. If you cant afford the phone that he is expecting then tell him that. Its better you let him decide... if he can wait maybe you can save up for the phone he wants.

Since you can't afford a nice cellphone as he expects, why not just tell him directly? He is someone special for you, and on the contrary, you are the same to him. So you shall not feel embarrassed to tell him the truth. Because I am afraid whether he will be happy to see the cellphone you will buy for him. If he doesn't like it, that means to say that your money is wasted. If you tell him the truth, perhaps he will change his mind. Or he will be unhappy anyway. But at least the money won't be wasted. A gift shall make people happy rather than disappointing. I love China

Dear friend, I feel everyone in this world could do according their capability and capacity beyond that it is bit difficult or may be impossible. May be you would like build a Taj Mahal if you had that much amount of money. But still you did accordingly to the ability you have. I feel the love and affection is mostly not shown through material that one give, it is one's timely helping hand and sincere honesty in the affection in right time. Anyhow you had done at least that much which is upto your capacity. All best have a great day with your that special one......

You can get a Cheap Cell Phone as the Money is made from the Yearly Service Contract. You can Find a Phone for a Dollar or as much as $10.00 in a few Places. You just need to Buy the Contract. But it can be Expensive for You unless He Buys the Service.

if im honest i would say that its the thought that counts. since you say that you don't earn that much, you could say to him that i've got you this cheaper one for the time being and i will save up for a better one for you. but if he truly loves you then he won't care.

If I were in your shoes, I will tell him that I am planning to give him a cellphone. I will also tell him that it is a cheap cellphone, but when I get a much bigger salary I will try to replace it. At least he knows what is on your mind, and he won't expect that much. Happy mylotting!
