my Lady...

Been together almost 12 years. We have everything our money can buy pretty much...

Any recommendations?

Make her something. I've done the "lover's coupons" in several relationships and it's been a HUGE success each time. Everyone appreciates something you actually put time and thought into IMO.

Coupon examples can be:

--10, 15, 20 minute back rubs

--10, 15, 20 minute foot rubs

--1 hour full body message (don't put too many of these in there, you'll regret it later)

--a couple of "your right" coupons that can be used to instantly settle any argument no matter how big or small

--2 complaint free "chick flick" dates

--some housework tasks

--Various sexual coupons if you're feeling naughty

You get the idea. I made each coupon out of colored paper and really put some time/effort into it making them look cool and thoughtful and put them all in a booklet. Oh yeah, make sure you put an expiration date and limitation on those. I had a clever girlfriend who tried to cash in about 6 coupons in one night. I had a limit of 2 per day after that deal.

Be clever, be funny, be unique, and be sure to put some personal jokes in there that no one will understand but the 2 of you. My books have about 30-40 coupons in there when I'm done.

Aye, the coupons thing really goes over.

I did one last year for one day of complaint-free shopping with my lady. About chewed my arm off trying toget away after a few hours, but she really enjoyed it.

Gift Certificate for a day at a local spa is always nice as well - massage, facial, manicure, pedicure, makeover, etc.

If money is no object, can't go wrong with a trip to Hawaii either! Or diamonds..

Breakfast in bed (especially if you don't cook) is a good one, especially if its a surprise and you have some fresh cut flowers to adorn the tray.

Coupons work every time.

When I am in doubt I buy a gift certificate for my wife at the local Massage house. She begs for them every chance she gets now. Plus it gets her out of my hair for at least an hour or two.

I am also lucky in that my wife isn't a diamond craver but she loves pearls. Luckily pearls are nice and cheap. I am getting my wife a set pearl on a gold chain that matches the setting of her earrings I gave her for our wedding. Bastards better have that shit done today!
