Poll Time.

Harder to buy a gift for? Men or Women?

I find I have a harder time with women. I think that has more to do with me not being super feminine, though, and not necessarily knowing what people like. Guys are easy, though. Get them some computer/video game thing or something dangerous (knife set? guns?), and they're usually happy.

My husbands birthday is later this month and I am struggling with what to get him. We've been married 22 years and he's the hardest person I buy for every year.

what's your budget?

You know me so well

Skip a traditional "gift" and give him an experience (or thing for you to do together). Movie tickets, concert tickets, overnight in a nearby hotel, fishing trip, museum pass, stuff like that?

If he's a reader, I could direct you to a really cool site that makes awesome versions of books. There's also a puzzle website that makes some that are basically works of art

@Pippa I recommend this as well especially for someone you've been married with for that long. Go make memories together

I like the game idea. He hasn't played anything in a long time. He might like that to wind down when he comes home. We usually just watch a couple of shows.

This is a great idea! I like the night away. I'd say a win-win for both of us.

What are his hobbies and/or passions? Does he ever mention anything like "I used to have" or "I love when" or "I wish", etc? I try to listen to subtle clues that most people don't even realize they've dropped.

I don't think she wants a divorce.

Actually, I'll post this anyway, especially for @Vanyanka

"Founded in London in 1947, The Folio Society publishes carefully crafted editions of the world’s finest literature. We believe that great books deserve to be presented in a form worthy of their contents. For nearly 70 years we have celebrated the unique joy to be derived from owning, holding and reading a beautiful printed edition.

Beautifully crafted, imaginative editions of the world’s great works of fiction and non-fiction, Folio Society books offer a rich literary experience to readers of all ages. The books we select for publication are timeless – we know they will be enjoyed and appreciated now and in the future. Because each book is considered as an individual object of value in its own right, there is a variety to our aesthetic – the only uniformity is in the quality of every single book."

He is all about us. His family.

He loves cars but that is way out of budget lol. Maybe a trip to a car museum or somthing like that though.
