What NOT to Buy Your Wife<\/b><\/p>\n
Although the only person a man usually shops for is his wife, the whole experience is a stressful one. Many a man has felt extreme frigid temperatures for a long period based on a poor present decision. As a veteran of these wars, I\u2019m still not sure what to buy my wife, but I\u2019ll pass on what not to buy her:<\/p>\n
1. Don\u2019t buy anything that plugs in. Anything that requires electricity is seen as utilitarian.<\/p>\n
2. Don\u2019t buy clothing that involves sizes. The chances are one in seven thousand that you will get her size right, and your wife will be offended the other 6999 times. \u201cDo I look like a size 16?\u201d she\u2019ll say. Too small a size doesn\u2019t cut it either: \u201cI haven\u2019t worn a size 8 in 20 years!\u201d<\/p>\n
3. Avoid all things useful. The new silver polish advertised to save hundreds of hours is not going to win you any brownie points.<\/p>\n
4. Don\u2019t buy anything that involves weight loss or self-improvement. She\u2019ll perceive a six-month membership to a diet center as a suggestion that\u2019s she\u2019s overweight.<\/p>\n
5. Don\u2019t buy jewelry. The jewelry your wife wants, you can\u2019t afford. And the jewelry you can afford, she doesn\u2019t want.<\/p>\n
6. And, guys, do not fall into the traditional trap of buying her frilly underwear. Your idea of the kind your wife should wear and what she actually wears are light years apart.<\/p>\n
7. Finally, don\u2019t spend too much. \u201cHow do you think we\u2019re going to afford that?\u201d she\u2019ll ask. But don\u2019t spend too little. She won\u2019t say anything, but she\u2019ll think, \u201cIs that all I\u2019m worth?\u201d<\/p>\n

Quotes<\/b><\/p>\n
\u2022 A wise lover values not so much the gift of the lover as the love of the giver. – Thomas A Kempis<\/p>\n
\u2022 The only gift is a portion of thyself. – R.W. Emerson<\/p>\n

An American Express survey about Christmas gifts found that the fruitcake was chosen most often (31%) from a list of \u201cworst\u201d holiday gifts. It even finished ahead of \u201cno gift at all.\u201d When asked how to dispose of a bad gift, 30% would hide it in the closet, 21% would return it, and 19% would give it away. This suggests that the Christmas fruitcake might get recycled as a gift for the host of New Year\u2019s party.<\/p>\n
