A mailbox isn't that bad Teri. One of my teachers told our class that last Christmas her husband gave her a can opener as a gift. Now that is worse!

Guys really DO suck at getting their girlfriends/husbands presents

Well, not all the time. My dad gave my mom a diamond ring this year.

We have needed a mailbox since we moved into this house more than 9 years ago. A mailbox, in and of itself, is a nice thing. However, when given as a Christmas gift from a husband to a wife, it is very very very unpersonal. I don't think very much thought went into this gift. I think my husband was thinking more along the lines of: "We really need this mailbox and I can't think of anything else to get Teri". NOTE TO MARCOS: YES I was being sarcastic. Do NOT get your future woman a mailbox as a Christmas gift unless you want to sleep on the couch for a week or two.

oh, boy... that's BAD! lol! 9 years is too much... that would be something you give on mother's day! hehehe j/k
I thought that maybe he had given to you a mailbox that, like when you go to the mall or whatever and sees a mailbox and say: Look, hunny, that's sweet and he remembered! Some kind of special mailbox...

BUT in his defense... I say it's very hard to buy gifts to women, when you wish to give something different from flowers/chocolate group. Jewelry as well, but since it's more expensive, I'm not including...

Hey, I don't go for the prissy things! Yeah, candles and that kinda stuff is cool though! LOL My grandma got me an electric blanket for christmas, I like warm things, so that was actually pretty cool! Probably the best Christmas present a person can get me is either a cool CREED CD, Default CD, some other awesome band's cd, or like I got this year, A COOL 5 DISC CHANGE STEREO! IT'S AWESOME! (The only problem is my parents won't let me turn it up real loud! Hmm, I'm staying home alone tomorrow, I guess I can turn it up a loud as I want!

GoodGodGirl23 · 12-29-2003, 10:56 PM

I like the prissy, girly, lacey, smelly, pretty, stuff.. hehehe! I have plenty of music on my puter... tons ofit!!

That's exactly what my mom said! When she opened the box she started crying. My dad said it was an anniversary/Christmas present.

oooo! A 5 disc change stereo is always a good present! Just make sure you don't blow yourself out of the house!

I'm basically like you, just get me some music for Christmas and I'm one happy camper!

Teri a mailbox!!! Oh boy what did you say?

I'm very easy to buy for. I always give my husband a sheet or two of paper...with PICTURES of what I want on them. Also included...where to find such items, and size/color if necessary. Then he can choose what to buy from that list. It's still I surprise, because I don't know which items he'll pick. Works for us.

TeriB19 · 12-30-2003, 10:16 PM

Not much, Jen, we're not talking too much right now. I'm mad that he didn't put any thought into this Christmas for me, and he's mad that I'm mad at him. Been a very quiet couple of days.
