Oh she's so good at gift giving. She would have definitely helped him out and it started a beautiful friendship. She was probably quick to be like "oh you poor thing please don't buy that as a gift. Here...let me help." Want to say it was like a year or so ago and they've been friends ever since? Maybe after that they ran into one another somewhere and she just had to know how the gift turned out. Then somehow it just morphed into her going to him for advice. Probably the most random, sometimes TMI advice. 😆 Unless he's easily offended/weirded out which she would know, I'm assuming, and not go to him for everything.
