Good observation. It never works. How many times have you bought shoes yourself and wished you
hadn't.
When someone else buys them you are kind of obliged to wear them even though you might not like
them.
I hate it when other people but me shoes since i am very picky and most of my shoes are very
expensive and no one would buy me shoes that are 100 to 200 dollars just for a present that they
bought for me without even letting me try them on............
