Get a basket ~ the three dollar kind from the craft section at wal mart is just fine.Put in it:a small box of chocolates a crystal candle holder (with candle) a $10 or $15 (whatever they cost) gift certificate to a nail place so she can get a manicurebath scrubbie stuff (soaps, gels, foot soak, eye salve... whatever. it's all together at the pharmacy section of wal mart). a great bookBuy until the basket is filled. Make sure none of it is for your pleasure... it's all stuff for her which doesn't include you ~ that means no nighties or anything like that should be included.
Break down and buy her some roses. Keep her guessing! I usually buy the wife a dozen every month. I mix up the days so she never knows when she's getting them. She deserves them.

I have a problem.It is the misses 37th birthday today. I have never been good at buying good presents. Once a few years back for Christmas I bought her a mop and broom set. Vaccum for Birthday one year. Pot and pans, cook books.Never been one to buy flowers or trinkets (Use them for special get off the hook presents)I was thinking about getting a home gym for her this year but wondering if that was bad idea.Bait (the romantic )
dude.....you're lucky she didn't hit ya with the pans, or stick the broom up,,,,,,,,,start taking notice of what she seems to like, or like to do. orrrr....buy her jewlrey.
Bait, I did this a couple of years ago for our anniversary...got friends to babysit, Make Reservations for a suite at a nice Hotel (Omni, chocolates, champagne), reservations for a nice restaurant, Limo for the evening.
I am finding out years later that get me nothing really means get me something. Man I hate all the reading between the lines stuff with her. As for what she likes it is Horses, Horses and more Horses. I know nothing about them other than they have 4 legs and a tail. I like machinery of all kinds NOT animals. Jewelry..... Maybe for her horse other wise she doesn't wear any not even a watch.good thing the girls are teens now and I can use them to shop for me.BTW TxMom why isn't me giving what nature has given me to her for her birthday not considered a present for her? ok...you just hit it. is there any ranches near you>? that you could take her on a trail ride? if there is, learn the basics of riding.....don't let her know you're doing it. then take her out riding on a trail. set up a picnic somewhere along the trail. if you have to, pay the ranch to get the things there. make sure it's all "mushy" lovey dovey. also, make sure it's something SHE likes, foodwise, and if you have any sort of music there, same thing. she'll love it. aaannnnd, she'll be impressed as all hell that you took the time to learn to ride JUST FOR HER.things like that have worked for me in the past.good luck!Bait <---- hopeless romantic.... NOT
