			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="announcement_post"><h3>Welcome to <a title="Christmas Gift Ideas For Men" href="http://www.christmasgiftideasformen.co.uk/christmas-gift-ideas-for-men-welcome/">Christimas Gift Ideas For Men</a>.</h3>
<p><iframe src="http://rcm-uk.amazon.co.uk/e/cm?t=presents-for-men-21&#038;o=2&#038;p=26&#038;l=ur1&#038;category=gift_certificates&#038;banner=0ZS2J1W4F5KNEBHAKWR2&#038;f=ifr" width="468" height="60" scrolling="no" border="0" marginwidth="0" style="border:none;" frameborder="0"></iframe></p>
<p>Christmas is a fantastic time of year, when friends and family come together for that one time of year to celebrate, be jovial, wind down the year in preparation for the new, and of course it is that time of year other than your birthday when you get to open your presents.</p>
<p>However before we get that far you have to go shopping for presents to give to those people that you wish to buy presents for. And when it comes to buying presents for others, this process can be quite tricky.</p>
<p>You know what you like so it can be easier to buy something for your exact demographic &#8211; that is, if you are a 35 year old woman, you will have a good idea of what to get as a Christmas gift for another 35 year old woman. But for a 35 year old man, that might be tricky, and even more so the wider the age gap.</p>
<p>Similarly, a 20 year old male may have no idea what to get for his 40+ year old dad. So here at <strong><a class="ld_link" href="http://www.christmasgiftideasformen.co.uk/" target="_self" title="Christmas Gift Ideas For Men">Christmas Gift Ideas For Men</a></strong>, we aim to take the stress and guesswork away from you, so you can simply browse, identify something you like and buy it now.</p>
<p>So while you are looking about have a think about what the man you will be shopping for likes to do? Is is a high octance kind of guy? If so, then maybe you will want to get him an experience day ticket to something like a day&#8217;s karting or paragliding? Is he a gadget freak? Then you can get him something electronic. If he is particularly geeky and likes to play with parts and wires, you could get him a project kit. If he likes a more quiter lifestyle, he might appreciate a day&#8217;s golfing or horseriding. And if he likes to stay at home, a nice ornament or DIY tool will always work great. All of these suggestions make great christmas gift ideas for men for starters, but do let your imagine run wild as this list is by no means exhaustive.</p>

<p><strong><i>Question by Samantha</i>: What homemade gift should I give my grandpa for Christmas?</strong><br />
I&#8217;m thirteen years old and I don&#8217;t have a lot of money to spend, but I want to give him something special.  He doesn&#8217;t eat any sweets <img src='http://www.christmasgiftideasformen.co.uk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  so that isn&#8217;t an option, but he drives his cobra as a hobby, is the owner of a print shop and massage parlor, and he works all the time.  He loves the beach and the canyon and has kept everything I have ever made him so he is sentimental for a man.  Please help!</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Gala</i><br/>How about a framed photo of yourself?  It may sound vain, but he&#8217;ll love it.</p>

<p>Check out this question and answers from one person facing this dilemma.</p>
<p><strong><i>Question by Javin L</i>: How to show my ex-girlfriend I&#8217;m not clingy to win her back?</strong><br />
A few weeks ago my girlfriend broke up with me because she said she needed some space, and some time to just live life.<br />
I think I might have been acting a little too clingy, which I know was wrong.  So how can I show her that I can handle her without being clingy, while still showing some subtle affection for her?</p>
<p>Besides the clingy part, the relationship was completely awesome.  She&#8217;s probably the best friend I have ever had.  She&#8217;s like the girl version of me.</p>
<p>Girls maybe share stories of how your man won you back?</p>
<p>And also, Christmas is coming up.  Would it be a good idea to still get her a small gift and leave it by her doorstep as a surprise?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by DanK</i><br/>The answer is simple, give her what she wants. Even though it might seem like being apart for a long time will just make her forget you, the opposite is true. You have to give her time to start missing you.</p>
<p><strong>Give your answer to this question below!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes thinking of <a class="ld_link" href="http://www.christmasgiftideasformen.co.uk/" target="_self" title="Christmas gift ideas for men">Christmas gift ideas for men</a> can be difficult. </p>
<p>Check out this question and answers from one person facing this dilemma.</p>
<p><strong><i>Question by Monica</i>: Can you give opinions on my story?</strong><br />
&#8220;I can&#8217;t find the channel to CW.&#8221; Elisha told her friends in her father&#8217;s rented-out penthouse. &#8220;Can someone get the TV guide?&#8221;</p>
<p>Jen walked over to the wide-screened television and plucked the pamplet from behind it. Elisha and her friends had been in New York for nearly seven hours and they still hadn&#8217;t done anything. Elisha looked out the window, watching the heavy snow fall from the sky. The weather man said it would clear up in the next couple of hours, but she was ready to do some shopping. She didn&#8217;t want to escape Indiana for the next couple of days only to not do anything. She thrived on having fun.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ah!&#8221; Holly let out a deep sigh, tucking her long, dark-brown hair behind her ear. &#8220;Has anyone seen my earring? It fell off.&#8221;</p>
<p>Elisha gasped. Everyone knew that was a five hundred dollar earring Holly&#8217;s father had given her Christmas of 2007. If Holly were to lose it, she would be in serious trouble. Immediately everyone started looking in every nooks-and-crannies for Holly&#8217;s earring. Elisha and Reese took the the route to the bathroom where the inside of it was systmetatically clean. Reese let out a low whistle as she traced her manicured fingers on the ivory colored sink. Studio lights flickered on her face as she glared into the circular mirror. Elisha rolled her eyes, looking under the trash-bin.</p>
<p>Voila! Elisha thought to herself.</p>
<p>She picked the diamond studded earring off the floor. Feeling like a hero, she returned to Holly who was lounging on the expensive Italian leather couch.</p>
<p>&#8220;Here you go.&#8221; she grinned, handing her the stray earring.</p>
<p>&#8220;Shanks, babe!&#8221; Holly said breezily, reattaching the earring to her ear. &#8220;Now, let&#8217;s talk about our Christmas vacation. What are we going to get for each person.&#8221;<br />
Elisha sat on the couch, crossing her pale legs. She had thought about it for a while. She had over twenty people to buy presents for. It was hard trying to think of the perfect present from her friends. She already knew what Holly wanted. The new perfume set that Hilary Duff was coming out with. And Andy and Reese both needed new athletic shoes. She had no idea what Savannah, Carter, Andy, Danielle, Maris, Courtney, Jen, Mark, and her other friends wanted. She had so many. Christmas shopping was going to be really hectic for her. Everyone would probably be rushing in the stores trying to find their friends and families the perfect gift. Mark was the main problem on her mind. Mark loved soccer, but he had every soccer thing that was ever invented. So did Andy. She was out of ideas for Mark. Strolling downtown was going to be her hobby for the next few days in New York.</p>
<p>&#8220;Guys, I&#8217;m leaving.&#8221; announced Savannah, putting on her cream trench coat.</p>
<p>&#8220;Where are you going?&#8221; Reese asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hanging out with Carter.&#8221; she answered, adjusting her ear muffs over her ears. &#8220;We&#8217;ll be back soon.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Beware of the cold!&#8221; called Maris, hanging upside down on the couch reading a Gossip Girl novel.</p>
<p>&#8220;Kay!&#8221; shouted Savannah, shutting the door behind her.</p>
<p>&#8220;Aren&#8217;t you hanging out with Mark?&#8221; asked Courtney, turning her attention to Elisha.</p>
<p>Elisha shrugged. She hadn&#8217;t talked to Mark since the other day. She kind of didn&#8217;t want to hang out with him right now because she needed time to think about what she was buying him for Christmas.</p>
<p>&#8220;Maybe.&#8221; she said nonchalantly, plopping on the love seat next to Palma. </p>
<p>&#8220;Well, I&#8217;m gonna see John in a minute.&#8221; applied Reese, brushing her long blond hair in the Victorian mirror. </p>
<p>&#8220;Why is everyone going out?&#8221; asked Courtney. &#8220;I swear, I&#8217;m the only girl who doesn&#8217;t have a boyfriend.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What about me?&#8221; Danielle asked, placing her hands on her hips. &#8220;If you&#8217;re talking about me dating that foreign guy, it was only for two weeks. That hardly justifies as a relationship.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Whatever. You&#8217;re right.&#8221; Courtney said with the wave of her hand. &#8220;I can just flirt with some New Yorker boy.&#8221;</p>
<p>Elisha liked Courtney&#8217;s idea. Courtney was the wildest girl in the bunch. Every boy that met her always fell for her. She had this charm that every boy liked. No boy can resist Courtney Hoftstadter.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m going to meet Andy now.&#8221; Palma said for Courtney&#8217;s benefit. &#8220;See ya!&#8221;</p>
<p>They all laughed as Courtney shot her a look of death. Palma just shrugged and strided out of the apartment door. Elisha leaned back in her seat, taking a sip from her hot chocolate in her custom made mug. The hot sensation sizzled down her throat as she engulfed her tongue with the chocolate goodness of the drink. </p>
<p>Just then Mark entered the room with a coat on. He made his way in as everyone took a look at him. He seemed to have been in a chipper mood. Elisha loved it when Mark wa</p>

<p>Check out this question and answers from one person facing this dilemma.</p>
<div style="float:left;margin:5px;font-size:80%;"><img alt="Christmas Gifts for Men" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/135/325161776_cdd6a3bbba_m.jpg" width="160"/><br/> by <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.christmasgiftideasformen.co.uk/gifts/Big_Grey_Mare/991/1">Big Grey Mare</a></div>
<p><strong><i>Question by nfs</i>: No Gift for Christmas&#8211;Should I Be Upset?</strong><br />
I&#8217;ve been dating a man for 1-1/2 years. He was laid off from work about a year ago and, as a result, doesn&#8217;t have much money. (Occasionally, he finds temporary work and gets by for a while. When he doesn&#8217;t have money for rent, gas, etc., I give him enough to get by, and he is appreciative.) A few weeks ago, he got about $  500 which he will need to get him through the next few weeks. So my question is&#8211;should I be upset that he didn&#8217;t use any of that money to buy me a small Christmas gift? Or should I understand that he has to save everything he earns so he doesn&#8217;t have to ask for my help? (He has never had money to buy me a Christmas gift or a birthday gift. I have a lot more money and often buy him gifts &#8220;just because&#8221;. And I bought him several small Christmas gifts this year.) Not getting a gift didn&#8217;t bother me at first, but I&#8217;m starting to feel like he should have made some effort.</p>
<p>What do you think, and what&#8217;s the best way to approach this with him (he has been pretty down about being out of work for so long). Thanks!</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Julia</i><br/>I&#8217;d be upset.</p>
<p>Gifts arent that much. Flowers or whatever.</p>
<p>If he was really that lacking in cash he could have made you something. </p>
<p>Something, at least.<br />
Yeah, I&#8217;d be a little offended :/</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes thinking of <a class="ld_link" href="http://www.christmasgiftideasformen.co.uk/" target="_self" title="Christmas gift ideas for men">Christmas gift ideas for men</a> can be difficult. </p>
<p>Check out this question and answers from one person facing this dilemma.</p>
<p><strong><i>Question by chopzsite3</i>: What are some things that may help ease my mind of thinking so much of my spouse?</strong><br />
In the beginning, it was quite fair with my attitude towards to this anew relationship that had been recently found. I was quite neutral and content, not too excited or too grave of a feeling with this new man I am seeing. I thought less of him, and had no true passion for him, but I was wrong after we had a three day vacation in Montreal. My passion for him soar to the skies as I wanted to see him, hear from him, and even&#8230; possess him or is that the wrong word? I want to, but I have not done so. Recently, I had him to come over to support me in renovating my bedroom. He told me that the wall shelf are not capable being drilled as my walls sustain a vent in the way. He immediately suggested we should go to IKEA. At the spur of the moment, I had no idea what I would want to get in the store so he suggested a bookshelf.</p>
<p>As much as I assent to his suggestion, I was never the kind to impulsively purchase something so expensive at the spot. You see, I am quite indecisive about many things, as much as it is irksome to me, it is quite out of my hands.</p>
<p>We got the bookshelf, and he complained to me how the things he wanted to get me were already bought before he could step into the store by me. Such as a video game that I want and the next day I would buy it, he would had no opportunity to get it for me. He told me that I was an impulsive person. I left him little option in what he could give me for a Christmas present. To be honest, I did not want him to get me anything at all, it was too much trouble just to give me a silly gift. He bought the bookshelf, with the usage of my store credit, in my stead. I was extremely hesitant and nervous. He thought I did not want the bookshelf and was on the brink of returning the item back. That was not the problem. The problem resided within the meaning behind the gift, I felt he was too uncreative and bought the item as though it was compulsory. Anyway, we hardly talked in the car ride, and even more so when he came over to help out. He was more concern in finishing the job, and he was even more attentive to assembling the bookshelf. He even brushed me aside, telling me to &#8220;play some video games&#8221; while he worked. I suppose men do tend to be single-minded! He said he hardly had any sleep because of a girl he had been hosting for the sake of his friend, who hosted him in Taiwan for 2 weeks, and is doing his friend a favor by taking out the girl around. I was curious about why he came back home around 2 AM. I simply asked what did he do with her. He answered that they had dinner and talked for a long time. Truthfully, I was a bit jealous, we hardly have such conversations anymore. Sometimes I feel we&#8217;re drifting apart. It&#8217;s just one of those days, but perhaps I am more ill-confident than others about our spouses.</p>
<p>Sometimes, I feel he is rather cold, and very apathetic; it&#8217;s quite nerve-wrecking, mind you&#8230;</p>
<p>I thought of him all day, he told me that he would be busy from the 21st to the 24th. I got the hint that he wanted to spend Christmas Day with me. Despite that, I wanted to hear from him on the 21st, but it never happened. I only received a morning email from him of a link which linked to a &#8220;Failed-blogged&#8221; website, and tis all it was. Other than that, I hear nothing.</p>
<p>The question is: should I have not been so dormant and initiate before him? Maybe not hearing from me all day given him an implied suggestion that I did not want to talk, hence I did not message him or called him. I hardly do the calling anyway. The problem with me is that I believe in space and giving others their &#8220;air&#8221; to breath, it is another way for freedom and relief in my opinion.</p>
<p>I had been so lonely today made me thought of my dear so much more. In addition, I acceded to talking to a much older man for a while on the phone (not that it is any different from other days) and we talked more than I could really remember from my times with my spouse. I felt that I could open with this stranger more than I could with my dear one. I felt comfortable yet lonely talking to him. He surely helped to ease my loneliness for a bit, otherwise the feeling is like a river in the dam waiting to force its way through the humanoid technology.</p>
<p>So in the end, what are some ways to relief my mind of my spouse? Any relating thoughts? You may share your stories of how you felt when you wanted to see your spouse. your lover, your beloved. I need a Chicken Soup for Mature Relationships in here.</p>
<p>If this helps, I am 19, female, and aspiring law student working in a law firm at current, while he is 26, male, and works as a security trader.</p>
<p>Any comments would be most pleasing.</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>
<p>p.s. I should try to invite an outing among a few of my friends, if they&#8217;re not busy that is, which is much likely due to this time of the season, but I will try.</p>

I recently got married and our maid-of-honor and best man (a married couple) have hurt me more than they will ever know.  For their sake I will call them &#8220;Samy&#8221; and &#8220;Davie&#8221;.</p>
<p>First off, throughout the entire process they balked at any cost they had to cover.  We&#8217;re not talking about us asking them to cover unreasonable items, just their attire.  That was all they were really required to pay for.  Even that we eventually had to cover half.  But they still insisted on being our maid-of-honor and best man, even after we offered them another less demanding role.  </p>
<p>Then I was made to feel like I was a spoiled brat because my parents were paying for the majority of the wedding.  Not BOTH my husband and myself, just me.  They actually used the phrase &#8220;poor little rich girl&#8221; a couple of times.  Why?  Because they had to pay for there own wedding and even though it was a very nice one, they didn&#8217;t have such things as a catered meal, or a DJ/Band or even a reception hall (it was in there backyard). </p>
<p>Then Samy kept butting in with unrealistic and bizarre decorating and hair and make-up ideas, the woman also buzzed all her hair off 2 months before the wedding to look like her favorite Anime character!  But I&#8217;m easy going, my one bridesmaid has her eyebrow pierced and 2 of the groomsmen have long hair&#8230;I can live with the GI Jane look.  However, suddenly I was this huge monster for not implenting every one of her ideas.  </p>
<p>The day of the wedding, it was like they didn&#8217;t even want to be there.  Samy was pissed because I didn&#8217;t need her to help me get ready, and I told her several times before hand I had a personal attendant.  Then Samy tried to start drama between me and my sisters (the other two bridesmaids) and Davie kept wandering off to &#8220;just be alone&#8221; during the pictures!  </p>
<p>The final straw was when we opened our wedding gifts.  Now&#8230;let me say this first&#8230;.I did not get married for the presents.  I could not have cared less if we did not receive a single gift and I understand a lot of folks out there (including ourselves and Samy and Davie) are under quite a bit of financial burden.  Anyway&#8230;things were lagging at the reception while people were setting up the stereo equipment, so my husband and I opened gifts to kill time and entertain our guests.  We get to Samy and Davie&#8217;s gift and it is a beat up baby shower pink gift bag (from their own baby shower 8 months back) and inside is a ratty looking Wal-Mart bag that&#8217;s tied shut.  We untie the bag and inside it is the electric knife set they got for their wedding.  Not just regifted&#8230;USED, left to sit in the sink until it rusted and pitted (I know because I saw it sitting their from Christmas to Valentine&#8217;s Day) hastily washed, thrown into the box and shoved under the stove where it can get all greasy.  Gee&#8230;Thanks&#8230;.. I kind of understand why they did this, but then again, it was tacky and somewhat rude.  We told those two from day 1 we understood any financial constrant they were under, and that is why we never asked anything more of them other than paying for their attire.  We would have understood if they did not get us a gift&#8230;half of our bridal party didn&#8217;t get us a gift and we understand.  </p>
<p>Samy sulked around the reception, refused to dance or have a good time, avoided everyone and then left at about 7:00 that evening.  I later asked her husband what the problem was and he began going off on how I excluded her from all this stuff, and my sister-laws and sisters were making fun of her (they never did&#8230;I was there the entire time), and I yelled at her (again never did), and yada yada yada&#8230;. By that time I was so hurt and furious that I coudln&#8217;t listen anymore.</p>
<p>I have only talked to those two once since the wedding and I just cannot bring myself to really make any extra effort to get in touch with them or even reconcile.  Should I just cut my losses and consider them to not have been good friends after all?  Has anyone else delt with this?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by jennbeez</i><br/>There are only three rules for weddings:</p>
<p>Rule 1: Say &#8220;congratulations&#8221; to the groom.<br />
Rule 2: Say &#8220;good luck&#8221; to the bride.<br />
Rule 3: It&#8217;s the BRIDE&#8217;s day, everything she does is right, everything she asks for she gets.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know about the first two, but your friends broke that last one. Forgive them and move on.</p>

<p>Check out this question and answers from one person facing this dilemma.</p>
<p><strong><i>Question by BoogieTwoShoes</i>: No santa, no stockings&#8230;. Bible followers please.?</strong><br />
I openly condone Santa.  If you follow the Bible you know.  My husband and children are not born again but I have faith they will see God&#8217;s love through my behavior.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t believe in Christmas stockings for the tale falls back on the lie of santa.</p>
<p>I would like to have three boxes/trunks that I decorate with gold ribbon and in rememberance of the gifts the three wise men bestowed on him &#8230;. have a large box, a medium box, a small box &#8230;. and place those &#8220;stocking gifts&#8221; in those.</p>
<p>My husband will not allow me to take down the stockings.  I will not fight or argue since he disagreed with my feelings on this.  I will only leave the stockings and place my gifts to the children in the boxes.  My children know the lie of Santa and  why I don&#8217;t practice it in our home.  I don&#8217;t like lies.  I will raise honest children through Christ.</p>
<p>Do you think this is a good idea.  My spirit says yes because this act is of a kind heart and I do not want anything that would be idolatry or a lie. Love</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Tasha</i><br/>I think you are blowing this a little out of proportion. However, I think your idea about the trunks is a great one. Since the general function would serve the same as a stocking, I wonder why your husband is against it. Is he that attached to stockings?</p>
<p>Just for the record, I teach my son the true meaning of Christmas, but I do the Santa thing too. Santa serves the purpose of getting kids excited about Christmas. Little kids (my son is 4) cannot grasp the excitement of it solely being the Birth of Christ. For little ones, you have to dress it up a little, and there&#8217;s nothing wrong with that so long as it eventually leads to the right thing.</p>
