    Me too. That way it'll be a surprise to you but he'll still know he got you something you really wanted. Men like to get you what you want and I believe they're afraid you wont like it. So I've learned to give my husband things to choose from. But he still gets me some I don't know what they are.

    I do that too. I put a lot of things I'd like to have on my wishlist at Amazon or somewhere. That way I still get a surprise AND something I want.

    DH is good at surprising me, like he will buy tix for me to a concert or something, but he is horrible at picking out jewelry, presents, clothes, anything. So I gave up on that part and let him suprise me his way. I just go out and buy what I want now and say hey thanks for the whatever. LOL

    I know petty vents can seem huge, but at least he is taking you. Mine just tosses me some cash and says go get yourself something nice. LOL I swear he has no romance left but he does have other good qualities.
