dh always tries to surprise me with holidays/gifts. but almost 99% of the time, i end up guessing or finding out.
so either dh isn't creative or i am too nosy LOL
he did surprise me with proposal tho! 
are you easily surprised?
-
Probably. I'm pretty nosey too though! As long as DH did all his planning while at work I'd be none the wiser.. we'll he'd have to find a way to pay for it too since I cover our finances! lol
-
@mrsjyw: I am pretty much exactly like you so no, I'm not very surprise-able. I try really hard to stay out of things though if I know I might be able to figure something out.
-
I think I'm too perceptive or something because I always seem to figure out what's going on. I try to act surprised though - haha
-
noo I'm too nosy. I always figure it out.
-
I'm a terrible guesser when it comes to DH. He's very very good at surprising me. Other people, not so much.
-
I am an over-thinker, so I always imagine every possible scenario and usually think or hope I'll be surprised when I'm not. I don't think I've ever been *really* surprised in my life...
-
@mrsjyw: I'm like you! I work from home ... I do the banking ... we only have one car ... we have a pretty typical schedule ... I just feel like I notice whenever something is "off"!
-
I don't really know-- DH isn't a big surprise-er! I might have spoiled the engagement because we got in a big fight over him not proposing yet and he blurted out that he already bought the ring, so there's that... but I do purposely try NOT to think about things that would give away a surprise, it's just more likely that we will ask each other what the other wants and get them that. Few surprises.
I was shocked by my work wedding shower though! And I will purposely try not to be suspicious since i know they will plan a surprise baby one too.
-
I am easily surprised. I think I'm too oblivious most of the time and when I do get wind of something, I try to avoid thinking about it because I don't want to ruin the surpriser's fun!
-
Same as you - so far I've guessed everything but the proposal!
-
No, I pick up on everything DH does. I can just tell my his tone, posture, behavior and I am oddly good at guessing what he is up to.
One example: One day he called to tell me he was on his way homw (he always does this). In the backround I heard noise and just knew he was buying my engagement ring. He proposed about 45 minutes later;)
-
No, he has a bad habit of leaving receipts or other give aways out in the open! I wish he was better at it though...
-
I am way too nosy. I even figured out he was going to propose the night he proposed.
I wish I hadn't because it makes me say stupid stuff while trying to pretend like I have no idea what's going on.
-
I don't have any patience, so as soon as I suspect something is up I pick and poke and prod until I find it out. Worst surprisee ever :T
-
I was going to comment on this yesterday but I got caught up in something else (maybe work LOL) but I am the worst when it comes to surprises and I have proved it again. Today is mother's day here and my husband planned a spa day for me but in order to get me to pack my swimsuit, change of clothes, etc he told me we were going to spend a night away from the kids so i started freaking out of course about missing them and pumping and would they be ok with my in-laws and he had to come clean. I felt bad but that was kind of a problematic cover-up story if you ask me.
-
Dang it...DH had my mother's day gift delivered and the box says what it is. It is something that I would have been suprised by and I have wanted for a long time. He would have gotten me had it not been delivered when I was home....maybe I can pretend I didn't see it and he can put it in the garage when he gets home.
