Avoid Buying Your Spouse These 6 Items as Gifts!

Image
No matter how long you've known your partner, buying gifts for men can be quite a challenge sometimes. Of course, you want to make a deep impression by choosing the right gift, but there are some gifts that you should probably avoid, such as the following: Flowers or dolls Men usually like gifts that are practical and functional. Unlike women who usually like flowers or dolls for any occasion, the effect of these types of gifts seems to be different for men. Except for special occasions such as graduation, avoid giving flowers as a gift to your partner. Cheap perfume or fakes Gifting branded items will certainly make a lasting impression, but if your budget is tight, giving cheaper versions of the same item or counterfeit is not a good idea. Especially if the partner has quite specific tastes, giving these items would be seen as disrespectful to the recipient. It is better to find an alternative that fits your budget than the gift given making a bad impression. Daily needs In speci...

You may be the one getting married, but having a party isn't that easy. In some cultures, as in most Asian cultures, marriage is not simply a celebration of two souls coming together. It is more like the joining of two families so that the parents of the bride and groom are part of (and sometimes, their business too!) the celebrations. Often in Asian cultures, weddings are also a symbol of social status by presenting more than a thousand people on the guest list. So, when a wedding is a celebration of the bride and groom and both sides of the family, who should bear this cost? The answer to that question depends on what culture you are married to. For example in India, all costs will be borne by the bride's family. But in Indonesian culture, usually, the groom's family will take ca...
