I despise Christmas with every bone in my body right now. I never ever have any money, and my grandma sometimes lends me money, but that's not the whole of the problem.
I am horrible at giving gifts. I'm creative at other times, but Christmas is always a curse... I can never come up with anything to give anyone. I want this year to be memorable, but I don't know what to get my mom, stepdad, sister, or baby brother. And more importantly, I have no idea what to get my boyfriend.
These people always do nice things for me and get me good gifts, and I want to do so in return. My boyfriend is so sweet and he likes video-games, pumpkin pie, and a lot of movies. He says he'll like anything but I want to treat him to a nice, thoughtful gift. My mom is very hard-working and she likes to read, and my stepdad really enjoys video-games like Red Dead Redemption and such, and he'll be satisfied with just about anything. Babies are easy to buy for, so I'm not as struggled with that, and my sister likes toys and trinkets and such, but I need help with finding a good gift for my boyfriend.
Tough having no money... :/

Christmas is NOT about presents.
It's about showing your loved one how much you care about them and how much they mean to you. It's not about the price tag of the gift. Your boyfriend is with you because he cares about you. Everything else in life is materialistic. If my boyfriend showed up to my house on Christmas and gave me a rose I'd be just happy at the thought of him even thinking of getting me something on Christmas.
This year I was trying to come up with something to get him and I had such a hard time. I got aggravated that I couldn't come up with something that he would love. I experessed my aggravation and he told me plain and simple that I didn't have to get him anything. I go over the top sometimes to make the people in my life happy. Sometimes I have to tell myself to knock it off sometimes because I over do it. Maybe you could be creative and make a scrapbook or a storybook of hwo you two met. Or maybe you could make the scrapbook memorable with all the things you've ever done like if you went to a movie maybe put a movie ticket in there. I'm sure you create something and make it personal he'll love it. Maybe get a picture of you and him and frame it. You don't need the price tage to be huge to make a big impression. Happy Holidays!

Thank you! I've made a scrapbook for him before, so I think I'll go with giving him a picture in a picture frame, or maybe a storybook! Happy Holidays!
