    See Misskit, and here in lies the problem. The expectation to avoid the threat. Buy me something or else? How can this be rewarding?...Just saying.

    I look at this way. I buy gifts for my wife randomly throughout the year. To me they are not expected and are enjoyed a bit more. To have the ultimatum is a HUGE deal to me. This is why I enjoy being here and not in the US at this time of year. In the US you have to buy for all or else suffer the wrath of forgetting someone or not buying a gift equal to or more then the other. See people nowadays judge you and how you feel about them on the gift you buy and the cost. Buy someone. Try buying someone a nice coffee mug and someone else a bottle of wine. You will be given the stink eye. Sadly shortly after Christmas its all forgotten what you bought them but for 2 or 3 days its Hell on earth while they assess your personal value to them...LOL!!. Lets just say when I was a kid I was thankful for anything I got and never judged by the gift.

    I want to be clear I am not a Scrooge, I share with people unconditionally and always have. in fact my wife says I am too nice. Funny that......

    OK. Sigh.

    Wait until you have the man flu and rasp, “Ice cream. Ice cream.” She gonna be shuffling around in slow motion, thinking of her empty Christmas stocking. That’s if she heard you at all.

    Just sayin’.

    I should have said max price 2k baht, did think of dash cam but she said no cos they all break. Shoes were a possible but at size 35 very hard to find, gold is out of course though she has had it before, just gets stuffed away never to be seen again anyway. I thought a vibrator might save me a lot of hard work, but she thinks 'disgusting' she's had perfume the other week, sod it I give up.

    ^ Shiseido, Clinique, Este Lauder, etc. gift set from the cosmetic counter? Check out her creams and stuff and find out what she uses. If she uses locally made stuff, it will really be a treat.
