In a recent column, Annie Lane received a letter from a woman frustrated that her husband never bought her small gifts for special occasions. Another reader shared her own experience of her husband being clueless about gift-giving and not knowing how to shop for her. Instead of staying frustrated, she decided to help him by putting together a list of things she liked, including details like colors and sizes. She also gave him tips on picking out fresh flowers. With a little guidance and teamwork, their gift-giving improved, and she even helped him create his own wish list. She found that approaching the situation with humor and kindness made gift-giving a sweet and fun part of their relationship instead of a disappointment. Annie Lane praised her for navigating this tricky situation and hopes that her story can provide tips for others in similar situations. Lane’s latest anthology, “How Can I Forgive My Cheating Partner?”, is now available as a paperback and e-book, featuring favorite columns on marriage, infidelity, communication, and reconciliation. Readers are encouraged to send their questions to dearannie@creators.com.
