I don't think gift is my W's LL. Last year I bought a pearl diamond necklace for my W. She did not even open the box for 1 year. So I don't buy her anymore expensive items. Maybe CD. Even that, she did not look at it.
I hope you will enjoy your vacation with your family. Being like a closed friend to your H is at least better than like a stranger. If my W could behave like a friend to me, maybe we can work out better.
