[quote=Anonymous]Tell him you'd rather no gifts than obvious after-thought gifts. Tell him it's OK to wake up the day of your birthday, without any gifts, as long as he's really nice all day, cooks and cleans, or brings you to a lovely restaurant (of your choice), and/or buys a really fancy cake. Or insert whatever you like best here in terms of flowering plants or jewelry or something else. My husband has ADHD and I'm pathologically picky in terms of gifts: he stopped trying to remember to buy gifts I didn't like anyway, and instead wakes up the day of and makes me his version of French mendiants (delicious wafer thin chocolate coins with tiny fragments of candied fruit and nuts). He gets me exactly the flowers I like and signs the card our daughter makes for me. I buy my own gifts, and I prefer it that way.[/quote]
