When he asks you what you want for your birthday/anniversary/Christmas- You can't think of anything and don't ask him for anything other than his time and a celebratory kiss.
Relationships on Female First
You don't get childish when he doesn't buy you something you've wanted for a while- You may have had your eye on something for ages but you don't give him the doe-eyed look and hope he'll take the hint. You buy it yourself because you earn money too and he's not your gift giver- he's your partner.
You would rather have a card than a gift- You would much rather he spent a few pounds on getting you a really lovely card for your memory box so you can look back over them together when you're old and wrinkly.
You prefer to do things than have things- If he insists on getting you a gift you would much rather he bought you something you can both do together to make memories rather than have lots of stuff.
You keep everything that reminds you of your relationship- A tag or bow from a gift he bought you, the tickets from a show you went to together or the heart shaped sprinkles he decorated the table with one Valentine's Day.
Little things bring you joy- Like when he makes you a brew or kisses you unexpectedly.
You like low key dates- A movie and a home cooked meal are fine by you- you don't need to be wined and dined in a fancy restaurant or bought lots of expensive things to keep you happy.
You don't like gifts by way of an apology- If you fight, you would much rather talk it through and resolve it than be bought a giant bunch of flowers to say 'sorry'.
Special occasions aren't a big deal- Key points in the year aren't an opportunity to get all freaked out what to buy each other. You often settle on a practical joint gift that you know you will both use and splitting it two ways doesn't break the bank.
Your home is minimalistic- It's not adorned with ornaments, trinkets and decorations- instead the walls are lined with pictures of all the good times you've shared together.
