Gifts....given or received....romantic, unromantic, useless, useful......

Heard this on a radio station today. People were asked to ring in to tell about the gifts they have given or received, from boyfriend, husband/wife, friend, parents, etc....

Thought it would be interesting to find out about any funny gifts you have received, or useless gifts, and also gifts that have been very useful, or just gifts that have been surprising.

The only one I can think of personally, at the moment, is three Christmas's ago, my hubby gave me a parrot.....and I love him dearly......the following Fathers Day, I gave hubby a puppy.

Maybe because we own a pet shop, we really did not think these gifts were extra-ordinary.

The man who stole my heart, had to be careful about gifts.One Xmas he gave me an amazing set of kitchen utensils, masher, knives,fish slice etc, the whole works. I love to cook, it is one of my ways to calm down and these were so beautifully crafted.I could easily have bought them myself, so nothing to arouse any suspicion there, and I still use all of them to this day.I cook daily so I remember him daily.

I know it sounds boring, but to anyone that cooks, a really good set of knives is just manna from heaven.I sharpen them myself with oil on a stone and they will last forever,just like my love.

He was also the first person to tell me about BBM the s.s. He had found it on the internet, after his brother who is gay had told him a about it.

The best gift of all though, was he gradually made me strip away all my masks,make up, designer this that and the other, and showed me that the real me was someone to be proud of, and someone he loved and still does.

My second husband once gave me a fake rose in a glass case. It played "I love you truly".

A couple of months later, he packed up his wigs and dresses and left me for a bi friend. (After he got his permanent green card.)   >:(

Kelda:
ouch.. I hope you stomped all over that rose...

keller:
Lets just say I know longer have that rose. When he left he said he deserved better than me. I told him I hope he got what he deserved.  :laugh:

Deserved better. Not a lot of wives would be fully supportive of cross dressing, to the point it was a detriment to the relationship. (I couldn't shop for myself, it was always for him. I had to call first when I was out with the kids (mine, not ours) to make sure he was dressed right when we came home.)

I was pretty glad when he left.
