What do I want for christmas?

Options
Hi

Other half understandably wants to know what I want for christmas.

the thing is there is nothing I think I desperately want or need and I understand that she wants me to have something really nice to open on the day.

so any suggestions as to what I should ask for?

I am male and 41 by the way and I dont want a Nintendo Wii so what else might I Like:confused:

  • I want mys husband NOT to spend money on a naf pressie for me cause I have bought an expensive camera for him which he can use to take photos of our children which will mean more to me than anything (it cost far too much really!)
    Thing is, it's really hard to stop him getting something and I don't want to ruin his surprise. He works really really hard and I love seeing him chuffed to bits.
  • is it something with being 41 i am female and dont know what i want either,
  • How about something for your car - or perhaps something for a hobby? If you don't have any hobbies then maybe you should take one up so she can see you relaxing!

  • or tell her to get some new sexy lingerie for herself as that will be a treat for you too ;)

    i did this yesturday ( i'm a 41 year old woman) told my husband i was buying myself some new lingerie for him to enjoy for xmas as his pressie... funny thing was he said he would prefer a new watch... huh men!!!
  • How about being taken out for a meal or to a show? Presents don't have to be a physical item.

    My and my OH are buying each other a 'big night out' rather than presents
  • You never mentioned a budget so ask her for an Aston Martin DB9 and see what she says :):):)
  • My husband didn't know what he wanted either, so he asked for people to buy gifts from world vision for him - like a goat! www.greatgifts.org
