Men even admit they suck
at gift giving, that is. I know we have seen several of our own posters lament about poor gifting on things like anniversaries or birthdays. Here is further proof that we, as ladies, need to just spell it out when we want them to buy us something particular.
14. Drop hints to avoid disappointing gifts: "When it comes to gift giving, I wish women knew that we are about as clueless as a five-year-old boy doing quantum physics. The pressure of nailing the best gift is enough to drive a man to tears. So, unless you give us a hint or just flat out tell us what you'd like, you are most likely going to end up with something unwanted. Like when I bought my wife tickets to see a wrestling match for our anniversary. She said she liked sports!"
Also, if you actually do click on the link to see the rest of the article, I have no idea what is up with the dude in the first picture who looks like he has a red rocket protruding from his pants, but that made me chuckle about how it looks.
Re: Men even admit they suck
Thank god there is an explanation! hahha
yes, I am a perve, and sorry, but it just looks funny in that picture.
And that's why we're friends!
You are definitely one of the lucky ones!!
Not sure who will remember but last year I was needing an alignment and new struts on my car and my H wanted to pay for it and consider that my birthday "gift".
He gets it right sometimes without needing hints, but even at Christmas he still uses my Amazon wish list for ideas since he can't always come up with things on his own.
S is pretty good with surprising me, and he knows better than to get me a household appliance or something related to my car as a gift.
He has great taste in jewelry (which is a huge plus
).
The gift giving is good in this family.
He got a shifter for his birthday. I got a Kindle for our one year. He's getting a really expensive vodka this year. I got an aquamarine ring. We also got Lillie on my birthday too
