That smile is natural proof that psychologically he is very happy with owning Bitcoin. I mean, Bitcoin can bring joy to everyone who owns it.
My first joy of owning Bitcoin was almost the same as that woman. If the woman walked away with a big smile, I actually for several days always opened my storage wallet while smiling to myself.
In fact, I wish that one day I can own even more Bitcoins as a long-term investment asset.

My was quite different, the first time I owned or received Bitcoin made me to changed my attitude not to allow my siblings to come close to my phone because of the bitcoins in my wallet at the moment. Since then, I don't go out with my phone since I received Bitcoin in my wallet because I was thinking it will disappear without giving someone my personal details until I came to understand that without your personal details, nobody can have access to your bitcoins in your wallet before I start allowing my siblings to my phone.
My excitement know no bounds when I first started my Bitcoin accumulation journey, and to this point, I have achieved a great milestone in a short time, I first started by purchasing a few bits and accumulating them little by little first I became a Satoshi millionaire within the first few weeks and now I have accumulated more Bitcoin more than what I can imagine and am glad I started small in bits.
But there are some important points I could have loved to hear from your message which is, securing the Bitcoin bought for your friend in a cold wallet, since you mentioned you purchase the bitcoin am sure you did that through an exchange, so it will be safe to have your friend to buy a cold wallet to store the Bitcoin off-exchange, another option is using an online wallet for now even though online wallets are not 100% secured too.

The first time I have experienced owning BTC is when I have earned it from the side gig that I have worked years ago. It was a great feeling that I have some BTC (in sats) for the first time.
But during that time, I didn’t have my own non-custodial Bitcoin wallet and I instead received it to my centralised wallet. That time, I was not educated yet about the difference between the custodial and non-custodial wallet.
But at least I did when I first purchased the Ledger Nano S. As of today, that’s where I have stored my Bitcoins and other assets so that it cannot get compromised or freezed.

Not too quite long I had a section in my home where I had to discuss with some of my neighbors about cryptocurrency/bitcoin and to an extent explained to them how the industry operates and the benefits it can offer. But this is not the actual point of my discussion anyway.
The thing here is that one of the person's I had that round table discussion with was to my oblivion doing some personal research privately about bitcoin based on all she has been told about it for the past many days after that very discussion. And so yesterday she came to me asking that I should assist her in purchasing bitcoin worth about $160 as she is avoiding on making mistake by doing it by herself alone since it's her first time. After every process and the said amount of bitcoin was purchased successfully into her account, immediately there was this expression of the feeling of joy the lady expressed with a wide smiles that seem unending and I was amazed at such level of excitement she showed.
Then after she left, I started asking myself, like did I also acted same way when I first got my own bitcoin or is the lady just been overwhelmed knowing she now own a certain amount of bitcoin or am I missing something as to why she reacted the way she did?
For you how was your own reaction/expression in your first time of purchasing and owning bitcoins, was it so different? I would love to know!
I would like to say I had some kind of epic reaction but I would be lying, to me it was just like any other transaction at the time, I did not realized back then that such a purchase will be the beginning of a journey in which I will invest way more time and money than what I ever thought possible, however the person I was at the time when I made that transaction never thought about this, which in a way is funny because that is probably one of the most important purchases I have ever made.

what if you provide information not only limited to bitcoin?excessive excitement will make people very hasty and so confident to search for information on all platforms like youtube don't eat click bait and your friends don't get a thorough understanding, so this is not an obstacle but if you are still buying bitcoins on the (local) market, of course there is a guide. This means that maybe you are just getting to know the fundamentals of bitcoin and it's like something that has liquidity can be made into anything. if he only goes along to buy bitcoin and doesn't know the purpose of owning bitcoin, I think he has the right to know what the potential and capabilities of bitcoin are. At first I had bitcoin like that and ended up on a scam site because I was tempted by ROI and apy.The thing here is that one of the person's I had that round table discussion with was to my oblivion doing some personal research privately about bitcoin based on all she has been told about it for the past many days after that very discussion.

I hope beginners can minimize greed and ignorance.
Quite different in my case, as the first time I received/owned bitcoin was also the first time I received income(that's actually worth something decent and not just a few dollars). One thing's for sure though, it felt GREAT seeing that number come out of your wallet.
The first time I had bitcoin was around 2013, I had my first job I bought a little. I remember being too excited about it, I watch the market price most of the time and watch my investment go up and down. It's a mixed emotion since I know little about bitcoin during that time and I had to do my own research since I don't know anyone who knows about bitcoin during that time. As time goes by I found a group of people who shares the same interest and that group led me to this forum. Now I share my knowledge about cryptocurrency to those who are interested in it and those who are asking me questions about it.
the first time i had bitcoin, i was happy because. I have valuable assets, even though at that time I bought them with very small amounts of money, around 100 dollars. and the reason that makes me happier is because I feel like I have savings, what is very unique is that the amount of money in bitcoin every day always fluctuates, so even if it goes down it doesn't make my mind anxious because it doesn't take long to go up again.
