i want a badass gift.

Well, I really wanted some new ostrich boots, so, I told her. It’s my, I mean, “our” money anyway. That’s just not something I’d buy myself.

Be struttin’ that desert chicken skin Christmas Day.

Honestly I could give a shite what she gives me to an extent.

Me receiving gifts is pretty much for the kids to see mommy and daddy getting gifts too.


I’m at the point where most of what I want, I just buy myself instead of dropping hints that will get ignored.

If she asks what I want, I start listing out things I need but can’t be bothered to shop for.

It’s just a general yearly theme. I’ll find her some pendant from 1905 with her favorite spot in Paris on it, I’ll get something that looks like it came from the mall.

No big deal. IDGAF about the gifts...it’s just this time of year again.

That’s awesome. A friend of mine just had a baby. Think I’m going to use that.

You know what helps in getting and giving gifts?

Multiple hobbies and interests.

Bruh, I’ve been married 8 months. Takes a bit to get used to joint checking accounts.

I got my husband something he really liked.

Amazon wish lists are also great to send your friends and family.

Y’all might have an issue if she doesn’t know the type of clothes you like

You’re gonna know whose money it is when she divorces you for being a doucher

I don’t. It’s not even about the items.

Two people can be very different and still be right for each other. I’ve been with her half my life, I’m 44, and I love her more everyday.

She doesn’t sweat the details, I do fracture mechanics for a living.

But in the same post you mention that what she gets you looks like something from the mall.

So what exactly is the issue here if you don’t “really” care but are bitching about it here?

I never realized you were gayer than me by a mile. The watch obsession shoulda gave it away.
