 |
|
| I have recently reconnected with a classmate that I had not seen for years. We have become close friends.She is in the middle of a divorce, so both money and self esteem are in short supply.My daughters told me in confidence, that part of her problem with self esteem may be her bra! She is a fairly attractive woman, but you can tell that her undergarment was not well chosen.Last week the girls and I got new bras and I told her I had a 'truely uplifting experience'' and it made me feel physically better. She said the last bras she got were some her husband (soon to be ex) picked out for her 2 1/2 years ago.We would like to get her a gift certificate for bras, but we don't know how to give it to her without hurting her feelings.She is a truely wonderful person, and we would not in any way wish to hurt her feelings IN ANY WAY! |

| Why don't you offer to take her shopping and help her choose some new bras? Let her know you'll be picking up the tab because you want her to feel as wonderful as you do. She's already told you her bras are old; so you could make the offer in light of that discussion. I think you're being a great friend. |

| Why would a gift certificate be hurting her feelings? Better yet,go shopping with her and help her pick out her new bra....she'll love the attention and your thoughtfulness....by the way,you're a good friend... |

| Give her a gift card to Victoria's Secret and go shopping with her. That ways, she would only spend it on bra's. Or Say, "Hey, {you're friends name}, I saw these really cute bras at Victoria's Secret and I want to go get some. I have a gift card from my mom {or whomever; and you actually get it for yourself to spend on her} and I wanted to know if you would like to come get some."Just don't overdo it. |

| Tell her that because of the divorce and all of the stress you have decided to treat her to a girls day out because she deserves it because she is such a great friend. Tell her it's your treat and you are going to go to lunch and have some fun time which can include getting some pretty undergarments.I did this for a friend of mine during her divorce and at first she did not want to go but after we left her house she told me that it was just what she needed. |

| How about a gift certificate for a bra AND pantie set. Write on the certificate or a card that it's a celebration and she'll be needing a gorgeous set of lingerie to be stepping into a brand new stage of her life and "bringin' her sexy back"! |
