My wife and I have a pretty predictable pattern: I buy the gifts for everyone (kids, parents, relatives, et. al), wrap them all, put up the tree, and decorate the house. I ask her repeatedly what she wants, and she never provides any specifics, so I pore over past statements and behaviors like Sherlock Holmes, then try to get her a thoughtful gift I think she'll use and like. She invariably returns it. She usually waits until the last minute despite me providing her with a list long in advance, then half-asses the entire process.

This year was no different.

I hate Christmas.

Merry Christmas! These years when our girls are still somewhat small is the best part for me, as I'm sure as well for you.

I hate Christmas also.

Wife and I decided before we ever even got engaged that we would stop giving each other gifts and go on a trip or do something to the house or something tangible we’d both want. Not some shit gift that the other one says they like but really doesn’t.

Sans kids who deserve the fantasy of Santa, that's solid... But I'd also offer that it has to be something you want, not something that you need.

Oh yeah. My daughter gets all manner of shit. Just not between the wife and me.

Before the kiddo, vacations were a nice thing to do an call Christmas/Birthdays. Now vacations revolve around the kiddo.

Doing things to the house definitely are wants not needs. And if it is something (like a dining room table this year) that we need, it ends up being a model or level of fancy or whatever that we want and not what we need.

From the pragmatic perspective, we are just crap gift givers. So there is no point in wasting money on it. So we don't. We are self aware enough to know that the awesomeness of a gift is only loosely correlated to the amount we love each other. And...We are both good with it so we don't **** with it.

It's not a trap either. If I were to go get something for her after we agreed on not, she'd be pissed.

Yes. YES! If you agree to not give gifts, don't give gifts. Otherwise, one innocent person ends up looking like the Grinch just because he's the one who upheld the agreement! I'm not evil!

That’s where we are too, I gave her a very nice set of diamond earrings and she gave me a post-it staying the “ok” to spend a bunch of money on an old 911.

Not a bad modification to the traditional deal, especially if there are no kids.
