I am having trouble coming up with idea's for christmas gift's. Im in the process of trying to win my X back slowly and have done nothing now for 4 months but give her space. I have been dropping off cards and such for her atleast once every two weeks. The cards have been very simple letting her know that I am here for her and if she needs someone to talk to or even a shoulder to cry on then I am here. Im not quite sure how intimate a gift should be right now or how freindshipy a gift should be. My X is 6 months pregnant with our child and we havent spoken in 3 months. I thought about getting her a gift certificate to a spa for a massage, mud bath , manicure etc. or a journal since she love's to write not only about her life but she like's to write songs... Does anyone else have any ideas???

I think those are awesome ideas...esp. the spa day...I would LOVE that!<p>Can you give us a little background on the situation...how long have you been married, was your wife unfaithful...does she still want to be married to you? I assume she's moved out? <p>I think if you are in Plan A, then you could go ahead and give her something nice like you suggested. The spa-day and the journal are both great ideas. Another would be her favorite perfume (in a gift pack with lotion, spray and powder) or some music and a cd player, esp. if she likes music.<p>You sound like a good guy and I wish you all the best. Keep coming to this site for strength and support. And keep close to God.<p>Aloha,
