Offer to take her to dinner, and then take her to McDonald's.\n\nThat'll show ya if she's just with you for the money.

Show him love...Even though you had to wait till you got home and had to heat up your dinner, it was very sweet and thoughtful of him to make you dinner.  I've done that for my wife, where she's come home late from work, and I've made her dinner, but she had to heat it up when she got home.  He loves you and I don't think he meant to upset you by not waiting till you got home to make you dinner.

OK to start out relationships shouldn't be transactional. On any holiday/birthday presents are not a requirement, and a demand of a present is in very bad taste no matter who is making the demand.\n\nYour situation is complicated by the fact that your mother helps you out a great deal but from your question you are helping her out too.\n\nThat said in a sense she is right about the meal because you both footed the bill, however that still doesn't give her the right to complain about no gift on the day.\n\nShe sounds like she is manipulating you.\n\nTo circumvent this situation, sit her down in as dispassionate a manner as you can manage explain that you resent being blackmailed. Then list the many way You help HER throughout the year. Then explain your finances and that a present (especially a large one) is going to be a real strain. Finally as a means of getting past this ask her if there is a particular thing that she really wants or needs so badly then offer to help her acquire it.\n\nBy the end she will most likely feel a fair amount of guilt, since she is so good at dishing it out she probably deserves it.\n\nHappy Mothers Day LOL

yes, but only if you take her to eat dinner or something after or before that.

I wouldnt say happy anniversary out right. but let her know that you're thinking about their anniversary and she will appreciate it. She might get too upset if you say happy aniversary ya know. but she will appreciate you recognizing the day for sure! good luck

It depends on how many hours each is working outside the home. If one works at home, they should put the crock pot on every day of the workweek. It is not fair for one spouse to work away from the house and come home and work, too, if the other spouse is not employed.

I am having the same problem...What i came up with is I am making him a coupon book on my computer.  The coupons say things like...1 hour massage at your request, another one says dinner of your choice just how you like it, and a 4 hour coupon to go out with buddies, and there are some other ones but they are kind of personal (if your know what I mean)...I think It will be a great personal fun gift to give him.  Good luck

That is TOO funny! Definatly go into a walk-in place, until then just eat a burger and turn that stuffed ear to your wife when she's talking to you.

I like to give groceries. The things that people don't think of needing until you're in your first house and need to cook dinner - salt, pepper, flour, sugar, maybe some spices, macaroni 'n' cheese, stuff that won't go bad. Put it in an inexpensive laundry basket lined with a kitchen towel and put a bow on top. It looks good and we've always had raves from the bride and groom that it was the best present they got.

You are not going to like this but...she should divorce you. You don't have a job??? You are spending your(her) money on these collectibles and expecting her to be okay with it. Plus, going out in public? Yes, it is a tad crazy. Sounds like you have an obsession with Jar Jar! Throwing potato chips? Dude, you have lost it big time! And the love making idea? Get some psych help-soon! Or your marriage will be history.

greet her at the airport with her favourite snack and make sure she comes home to a clean house.  she'll be hungry and tired after such a long flight.  might not be romantic but be assured it will definitely be appreciated. that's what i'm hoping my hubby will do for me when i return from seeing my family in the us too.\n\n\ni have no real good suggestions but want to say she sounds like a lucky lass :)

a steak dinner... all the better if you buy some at the store and make 'em for him, y'self.

That sounds delicious.  What time do you want my wife and I to come over and what can we bring?

you could loan her money... a small amount to cook dinner and rent a movie. or while he's at work, help her set up something creative. like a treasure hunt in the house or a romantic setting ;)
