cvfd1399 0 #1 June 2, 2004 Ok my 6 month anniversary Sunday, and I need to know what to get! I thought there was a rule about anniversaries, like 1 year diamond 2 years gold 3 years pearls or something like that. Is there a specific thing that has to be bought for a wife of 6 months. If not what would you women want for such an occasion? Thanks for all the help. This is a life or death type of situation my dad would say Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slug 1 #6 June 2, 2004 Hi CVFD IMO your starting dowm a slippery slope. I refues to acknowledge any retailer imposed event's Anniversiary, b-days, valentines day, Xmas, etc, Been married to the boss for thirty years. When she wants it she gets it, when I feel the need she gets it. IMO Why wait for a "special event". Every day with your S.O. is special. Warning some incecure S.O.s would not except this type of behavior. My S.O. is the boss she knows my quirks and accepts them. it's her choice not mine. It works for us, I think/hope R.I.P.

freeflying 0 #7 June 2, 2004 Aw... how sweet. its the little things that women love so try to make the night special with little touches. The very fact that you do something for her on your 6th month is enough. Its not about jewelry and objects (although always appreciated) And definitely flowers at her work.. women always love flowers.. and not just boring roses but something that you know she loves.

mwabd1 0 #11 June 2, 2004 I say nothing its 6 months! Now if you want to buy her something go ahead but do not tell her its for the 6 months aniv. Otherwise you may be setting yourself up for twice as many mandatory gifts for the rest of your life........I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!

craichead 0 #12 June 2, 2004 QuoteI thought there was a rule about anniversaries, like 1 year diamond 2 years gold 3 years pearls or something like that. Yah...there are traditional gifts for YEARLY anniversaries. That's what anniversary means. Every YEAR. If you're celebrating months, maybe it would be called a mensiversary. However, since there is no such thing, you don't have to get her anything. And this coming from a chick. Personally, I think celebrating relationships month to month is silly.

Thanatos340 1 #13 June 2, 2004 This is an easy one.. Get her a new Rig!! (Sized to fit you of course!!) Make sure it arrives on Friday, so when she kicks you out you can spend the entire weekend at the DZ jumping it instead of wasting a perfectly good jumpable Sunday celebrating a 1/2 year anniversary.

I could be a short term sex toy, but sometimes us men aren't up to the task.But got to keep the boss happy she wants toy's: battery operated, 120volt 240 volt she can have whatever she wants as long as i get to watch R.I.P.

weegegirl 2 #17 June 2, 2004 i'm all about adventures and memories over material objects... how about something like a hotair balloon ride or a ride in a glider. or a weekend getaway... blindfold her and drive her to a special bed and breakfast or rent a cabin on a lake. take her fishing or somewhere where it is just the two of you doing something fun that you don't normally do together.

happythoughts 0 #18 June 2, 2004 You have been married 6 months? No gifts. You are still in the super-fun part. Instead of spending $300 on some jewelry (that will likely sit in a box), go for a 3-day weekend at a hotel. Dinner, dancing, get her drunk, tell her you love her... The truth is, most women have more necklaces than they could ever wear. Take her out for a fun-filled, carefree weekend and she'll brag to all her girlfriends and remember it for the next 10 years. Jewelry gets forgotten. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freakflyer9999 1 #21 June 2, 2004 Get a nice card or make one on your computer telling her how you feel. Put it somewhere that she is sure to find it. I always pin them to the wall in front of the toilet. May not be a romantic place, but she always finds them. I usually buy a dozen or so at a time for 49 cents or so. Then I randomly pull a card out and write a note inside. Also you can write messages to her on the mirror using dry erase markers. Send the biggest bunch of roses that you can afford to her work or some place where her girlfriends will see them. Cover the bed in rose petals with the appropriate background music and candles. Don't wait for a special occasion. Doing these things at times that aren't expected makes the biggest impression. She'll also be the envy of her girlfriends when she brags about it. (and she will) My wife and I will celebrate our 25th anniversary this year and she definitely has enough jewelry and other objects. It hasn't always been smooth sailing, but taking the time to let her know you care helps calm the storms. Kenny G. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm thinking treasure hunt... lay clues all over the house and write little poems to lead her to the next one... The treasures don't have to be big, stuffed animals and shit like that work really well. Let me be the voice of experience... the sex will never be better. Congrats on your sixth mensiversary!

2fat2fly 0 #24 June 3, 2004 Just remember, what ever you do now, you'll have to top in 6 months. Start low so that you can leave room for improvement. Try to get home early enough to cook her dinner AND have the kitchen cleaned up. Avoid anything with an electrical cord. If she has to plug it in, it's probably not a good present (and I don't give a damn how practical she is, appliances will not be appreciated). Don't buy from Victoria's Secret...unless you buy something cute and comfortable. Acts of service are nearly always a good bet. Give her a 1/2 hour massage..that doesn't end in sex. Wash her hair. Have fun together. You don't have to buy a present, be a present.I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
