I need help with gift picking for my wife?

My wife and I have been married for almost two years now. And the thing I found hardest about being married is that I have no idea what to get her for special occasions. It all started on 9-11-07 when she gave birth to our first kids. A set of twins. But when I came to the hospital the next day she didn%26#039;t talk to me for almost 2 days because I didn%26#039;t show up with flowers for her. I didn%26#039;t know. After that it%26#039;s been like a curse. I asked her what she wanted for her birthday and she said nothing. Just being with me is enough. So I didn%26#039;t get her anything. I thought she was going to kill me after that. Then Christmas I asked her what she wanted and she said nothing. Don%26#039;t worry about it. But I knew better. I traded my 80 Benz in for a new Trailblazer she liked very much. After that she got at me for making a major choice like that without asking her first. So on Valentines day I got the traditional candy and flowers. That went well. But our 2 year anniversary is in June and I%26#039;m stumped.

maybe a vacation or just a well planned night would probably make her day! a great place for %26quot;creative%26quot; gifts is lovingyou.com or ideas for a wonderful creative date. anything that comes from the heart will make her day!!
Reply:well you are learning early on....lol....nothing means something....most of the time,when i say nothing i mean i really don%26#039;t need anything,and i%26#039;m not the flowertype either,i guess i%26#039;m weird,if flowers then perennials so i can enjoy them again next year,but for the most part ,women say nothing in hopes that you will think of something,like when guys say nothing but women usually think of something anyways.it all sounds complicated but really isn%26#039;t,get her a dozen roses and a gift card to her favorite store,let%26#039;s say bath and body or gap or whatever ,you can%26#039;t go wrong with a gift card for most women because they can buy whatever they want(even tho i read somewhere that is a thoughtless gift i don%26#039;t think so at all),but when you give it with the flowers it will tell her that you put much thought into it.and even tho i love to get a gift card from victoria%26#039;s secret be careful she may take it the wrong way,just guessing because of the other comments above,you poor guy.
Reply:It%26#039;s great to know that you are learning! I%26#039;m still mad at my husband for not getting me flowers or anything to mark the birth of our son.


For your anniversary, go with jewellery. An earring and pendant set (hearts would be nice) - depending on your budget, simple or with gemstones. Or a beautiful bracelet. Smelly things are always good - a Body Shop or similar store can give you suggestions, and put together a gift basket of things with bath crystals, shower gel, lotion, soaps, etc.


Does she read? If so, some books. If she has a hobby, something connected to that.


Aw, get the jewellery!
Reply:take your wife on a romantic trip just the two of you tell her mom or your mom to take care of the kids. then at the place you take her give her diamond earings she will love them and you.
Reply:First look up what are the traditional gifts for a 2 year anniversary and go along those lines with that. Take her out to dinner and give her the gift then. Tell her that you are so happy that she is your wife, and that you are looking forward to spending the rest of your lives being happy together.
Reply:you can treat her to a romantic restaurant that%26#039;s not too expensive.. you could bring the kids along if you want...
Reply:I don%26#039;t know of too many women that don%26#039;t love jewelry. I used to deal with quite a few dealers that operated off of ebay and their prices were up to 80 to 85% below retail stores. My wife got a new ring twice a year and normally a few necklaces and earrings throughout the year. If you start looking now you could find an excellent buy before then. Send me an email if you decide to and I can give some pointers about choosing good quality diamonds.
Reply:Here%26#039;s something creative that will be appreciated and you will have fun doing:





Make up a crossword puzzle and have all the hints be personal inside moments and jokes that only you two would know about. Put it on a poster board and add some clipart and some pictures to it!





The crossword puzzle could be time consuming and a bit frustrating ... you could do the same idea with a WORDSEARCH or WORDFIND puzzle.





Put your computer skills to work! Use Excel, get clipart from Yahoo Images Search, copy them, and reformat them, use a gluestick to put on posterboard.





Use graph paper, and pictures from magazines if you are not as good on the computer, and it will give it a homemade feeling.





This is a really beautiful poem too!


Women have strengths that amaze men.


They carry children, they carry hardships, they carry burdens but they hold happiness, love and joy.


They smile when they want to scream.


They sing when they want to cry.


They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous.


They fight for what they believe in.


They stand up for injustice.


They don%26#039;t take %26quot;no%26quot; for an answer when they believe there is a better solution.


They go without new shoes so their children can have them.


They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.


They love unconditionally.


They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends get awards.


They are happy when they hear about a birth or a new marriage. Their hearts break when a friend dies.


They have sorrow at the loss of a family member, yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left.


They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart.


Women come in all sizes, in all colors and shapes.


They%26#039;ll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you.


The heart of a woman is what makes the world spin!


Women do more than just give birth.


They bring joy and hope.


They give compassion and ideals.


They give moral support to their family and friends.


Women have a lot to say and a lot to give.

Reply:Something that says that you planned ahead for it is the best.. Like make her a spa appointment or a massage appointment and then YOU arrange to take the kids or get a sitter. Don%26#039;t make her do anything but go to the appointment.





I always said I wanted jewelry and my husband didn%26#039;t think it was a good gift, i guess, but finally got me a pair of earrings for Christmas and just the fact that he picked them out meant the world to me.
