[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]is your husband not weirded out by this?  I only ask because my best friend is a male, we met the first day of college, and even though we were never romantically involved, my husband is weirded out by our relationship which he won't admit.  If I was putting real thought into a gift I was getting for my friend my DH would be jealous and pissed.[/quote]

He has never outright said that he is weirded out but over the years hes made some comments that make it clear to me hes in fact increasingly, lets say, 'paying attention' to it. does that makes sense?[/quote]

This is where you need to prioritize your marriage and not your friendship.  Do not get him a nice gift.  Do you usually get him a gift?  35 isn't a big deal, wait for 40 to do something.  By then hopefully your friend will be married which will ease the tension between you-husband-friend.  Are you sure you don't have any unresolved feelings for this man?  Its bizarre to me that a 35 year old woman would be getting a 35 year old single man a gift, even with a history of friendship.  I don't get my girlfriends gift really, we do dinner and drinks and pick up the tab.  [/quote]

would it be ok with you if the friend were married? then its ok to get a gift? i find it interesting that people do not believe in the concept of truly meaningful nonsexual friendship between men and women if one of both is single....[/quote]
