*Anniversary Ideas for Her*
Let's face facts, fellas. There is absolutely no avoiding the fact that
she knows your anniversary is coming up. Even if your anniversary was
just yesterday, and you have 364 days left to prepare for the next
one... she is well aware that it is coming up. And the best odds would
say that your anniversary did not just happen... unless maybe you happen
to be looking at this from your smart phone in the car (where you are
now sleeping). There are times when a man must take charge in life...Sweep your woman off her feet and romance her like never before.
and times when he must nod his head solemnly, and accept that discretion
is the better part of valor. Just never say, "Yes, dear." Your
anniversary is foremost among the latter type of times, and you are
going to need to get her a gift. And no matter what the tradition says
about the first year, paper is NOT an option... at least, not one that
will likely result in having any subsequent anniversaries. So let's
review a basic list of gifts pretty much guaranteed NOT to find you
spending a few nights on the couch (or having the locks changed on you).
A nice set of flowers. While some people would consider this the cheap
way out... it actually isn't. Considering that most things you buy will
not die within three weeks, and cost substantially less by volume,
flowers are almost a rip off. But women love them, and showing your love
some times means throwing cash down the drain. You can't show her you
love her with savings bonds, guys.
But do not just give her a dozen roses. While that is a classic, be
creative with it. If she's a size 4, give her four each of a few
different colors of roses. Or if she prefers another type of flower,
give her those. If she is NOT a size four, do NOT try the "x number of
each color" trick -- it will back fire hardcore. Also avoid giving her a
rose for every year she's lived -- women don't seem to like being
reminded how venerable they become as they age.
A great piece of jewelry. Let's face it; you can't go wrong with tiny,
shiny things. In that one sense, women are very much like birds -- if
you do not give them small, shiny objects, they are likely to peck your
eyes out. If you can afford it, something from Tiffany always goes over
well. One year I remember receiving my shiny Tiffanys bracelet with the heart that I will always charish and hold dear to my heart.
Other great brands that she will happily show off around the
office are Cartier, Rolex (you high roller, you), and
. Attempt to give her
an impostor at your own risk.
Perfume. Women naturally smell nice. And yet, for some strange reason,
they want to cover up their natural scent with some thing completely
different. So go to the perfume counter, state your budget (and don't be
a wimp with the sales people!), and ask what smells good that you can
get within that budget. And if you play it suavely, every time she puts
it on, she will think of you. I highly suggest Coco Channel or Romance by Ralph Lauren.
Don't forget your anniversary or you might be in the dog house and that is not a fun place to be!~Cheers
