I don't expect or even want presents at anytime. I accept them because I understand people like giving, just as I enjoy giving. BUT NOT ON VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

Yes your right OP... If a man can't put in an effort, including day-to-day stuff then how will he remember special occasions?? Its a Deal Breaker for Foxy. I don't like to be taken advantage of. * thumbs down* SuperFox - Posted from rhpmobile

anyone any time anywhere,all pressies will be gratefully received.....but generosity of spirit will trump the parsimonious pulchritudenous person any day.

In the way of presents for those special occasions, it's more the fact you are in somebodies thoughts. On a different thread I was talking about an ex who forgot my birthday one year and our anniversary the next. We all feel the need to be loved in one way or another, it's a basic human need, and that someone special forgetting something as Simple as your birthday certainly is hurtful when you love them. definitely a deal breaker if it's a long term relationship.

That is a fantastic word. I had to look it up. The challenge now is to use it in a sentence today. I'm going to a dinner party tonight, maybe I'll get the chance then.

... tell me you've been spending too much time watching the ads on telly. To me, Valentine's Day is primarily about spending time together. Having said that, I really like surprises - but a sweetly written note holds as much water as a pair of diamond earrings, as far as I'm concerned. In fact, probably more. Anniversaries are the same deal. It's the effort. And the sweetness of the thought :)Birthdays and Christmas are another matter... if you don't have a pressie for me, I assume it's because you forgot! It's not that I crave pressies, it's about the thought! But if you are the kind of person who is thoughtful day-to-day (ahem MrKinkster ) then you're unlikely to be in that situation I'd say. MsK xps Funlover71 (and Freya) - pulchritudinous may, these days, mean physically beautiful or attractive, but it also comes from the Latin "pulcher" which not only meant beautiful but also noble or honorable. In fact, several Roman politicians took it up as their last name to increase their public appeal. Just something for your dinner party ;)

Sometimes it is nice to get a present, I am not expecting some. Because I am always a very stupid buyer of presents so I don't want any, because it embarrasses me to get some.

I prefer the little things not so out of ordinary. The door being held open A flower from the bush outside because it made me smile. My bags being carried. That gentle touch in a crowded room. The glance across the room that says I know what I would rather being doing to you than talking to this twat!!!! The subtle bite on the neck while standing cooking or doing a mundane chore. And nothing but nothing is the gift.....of that first kiss after a few days apart, that all encompassing body to body hug with tongues locked and arms entwined, that says with no words, I missed you. If I had to make a choice between that and French champagne jewellery and lingerie and roses, the kiss wins every time. My delight is in the choosing of a gift that will rock them.....show I was listening and be a surprise. I love the look that says..... Wow. You get me. From lover, niece, nephew, child, sibling of just friend. Giving is a gift all by itself.

Event importances:1) Birthdays - it's that person's day, make it special! Lots of effort put in here to find just the right gift, organise the best party/ dinner out etc.2) Christmas/ Easter - this one is for the kids and family. Make it memorable. More work but it's fun and rewarding to pull off a great Christmas lunch/dinner. Easter, meh, just buy the eggs, make a nest and you're done, although I am going to make hot cross buns this year from scratch.3. Anniversaries - these usually consist of one of us noting "oh hey we've been together for x amount of years this month" then going back to what we were doing.4. Other token gift giving occasions - These are acceptable "re-gifting" occasions if you're gifting to friends (just don't give it back to someone by mistake :P). Valentines day... well I can say "I love you" or we can go out to a fancy schmancy restaurant any day so why go when it's packed full of people? A note stuck to my coffee machine in the morning is far more special.I wouldn't call a bad memory a deal breaker, as long as he/she apologised for forgetting the birthday/Christmas gift. I do get pretty miffed if I put a heap of effort in to someone's gift and I get given an afterthought in return. It feels like this: All that effort and I'm just not that important to you? Well frak you too!

My Ex Husband has set a standard here that will be hard to follow. He NEVER forgot a birthday, anniversary or valentines day. And he was the best gift buyer out! Luckily, I still get gifts from him for Birthdays and Christmas...(just not as personal as in the past - coffeemakers and the like rather than lingerie) and he takes our boys shopping to make sure they have gifts for me too. It's not the gift that's important to me but knowing I'm on that special someone's mind......

I actually really like that. Unexpected, sweet and soft.But actually.. I like gifts when they seem to come for no reason. Just a surprise out of the blue.

We both forgot our anniversary one year but usually like to have time together alone to 'celebrate', birthdays we make a fuss of (with actions, nothing quite like having the whole day to be spoilt), Valentine's day is just another day. All in all we appreciate each other every day and that's what matters. We have had over 25 years of them together lol.

The cost is not important. What is important is the time and care someone has gone to go to get/buy me a gift. It doesn't have to have been purchased at a store. A special present I received once is a small plastic thing fridge magnet! I have it on my desk and work and just love it

If you don't make the effort it shows lack of respect. It doesn't have to be big it is the thought and consideration, a romantic dinner etc

Treasure what you have with your ex. He takes the time to ensure your kids buy you presents at the right time. Really nice.

Quoting 'Smilingwithfun'Treasure what you have with your ex. He takes the time to ensure your kids buy you presents at the right time. Really nice. Yes, he's a good man. We work at having an amicable relationship, both because there are children involved, but also because once we were best friends. It would be the easier option to hate each other.

I'm the worst at buying gifts for special occasions, ill either buy something a woman already has, something an ex bought her previously, etc etc. I have a knack of buying awesome random presents though, eg- a friend just bought an iPad, but had to wait a few days for it to be delivered, she was too busy with, so I bought a nice pink leather case/folder thing. Why? Because I knew she'd need one sooner or later. She was really happy, and I felt pretty damn good about myself lol
