    Just a little nostalgic.. This was during our courting days and we were in different cities.. It was my first trip back to my hometown after our engagement.. As soon as I entered Archies, I saw this cute monkey with a "I Love You" sign and bom! I had to buy it.. I couldn't think of anything else but my hubby.. But, now after 8 years, I think probably it was too lame..

    Ha ha. I've done something similar - right down to animal holding I love you heart. And it was a bit cherished for a few years. Then I couldn't stand it myself and gave it away to a charity shop a few years ago. I can't remember if my SO missed it... I should ask him...

    :laughing: Thanks for assuring me that I am not alone.. however the sad part is that, during one of our silly fights in the initial years of marriage, this was mentioned.. After that, I have never been able to gain confidence to buy a present for my husband.. feels like I have given up.. be it any important occasion of our lives, I just cant gather courage to buy him something.. I feel lost..

    lol. I did that too !! Not once but quite a few times.
    Now I realise that the matter I wanted to convey was so classy but the props I used to do that just did not match :BangHead:
    Now when we go to shops and buy toys for DD and DS, my husband asks me if I am looking for anything to gift him with. :facepalm:
