going with the metaphor, yes. I'd rather be thought of fondly everyday then thought of in a grandiose manner only once & a while.......

Re: I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck...

Roses vs. diamonds - I prefer diamonds.

However, I think that there's more to that line - she prefers the sentiment and thought in giving roses than the large, somewhat 'cold' gift of a diamond necklace.

I still say I'd prefer the necklace, though.Chat Icon

depends on how you look at it.

Literally? I go diamonds
Metaphorically? Roses

exactly.

I thought I was the only one that didn't read this as a direct statement.

then again, I am "cryptic" according to some people

I'd rather have daisies actually. To me, it's a more thoughful and spontaneous gesture.

I agree with the thought behind the metaphor.

But in the literal sense.. I don't love roses - but I really dislike diamonds.

I don't really want either—I'd rather have a bunch of photo albums filled with pictures of our travels and adventures.
