That’s right, the ears. When anniversary gift giving time comes around most people are stumped. Simply because tyhey don’t listen. If you spend any time with your signifigant other, you know they have their own list of likes and dislikes. That is a great place to start in terms of choosing the perfect anniversary gift idea.

So let’s say for instance, your husband says that he really hates having to sit in traffic during his commute, try renting a limo to take him back and forth for a couple of days. And say to him, ‘honey I know you hate sitting in traffic everyday but I know you do it to take care of our family and I appreciate that’. It will make all the difference in the world because it proves that you were listening. I know a limo may seem a bit steep but how about a cab, or getting one of his friends to drive him, then supply the car a few of his favorite snacks.

In the case of finding a unique gift for a woman it is even easier because women are more vocal about the things that they like and dislike. You just have to listen throughout the year. Anthing that is said more than a few times is an opportunity for you to prove that you are listening and that you care. If she says that she had always wanted to tango then get her lessons. If you really want to make an impression, get lessons for the both of you and then act like you really really to be there. Make your self enjoy it because she enjoys it.

Anniversary gift ideas can be easy if you just put a little effort into listening to your mate. If you are not sure you are getting a good bead on their interests or dislikes then ask a close friend or relative. We all have a place where we air our feelings…find their source of pain, pleasure, disconetent or gratitude and simply acknowledge it with a gesture that says – ‘I am listening and I care…”.
