if you say nothing,save your money and then you feel bad becuase he doesn't buy you anything...your just sending mix messages and making him seem like the bad person when you are really the bad person at fault.... so just tell hiim what ya want :)

Guys love to buy stuff for their women.
Don't be too direct and give a set of instructions
Have fun and guide him towards the sort of gift that you would appreciate.
Don't be too subtle either, remember guys don't always pick up on hints.
I don't like giving practical stuff to the woman i love, i prefer to give a token of affection, I prefer to use at least dome of my imagination, it may be different for other guys.
Don't say save your money, you should celebrate each others birthdays, its an opportunity to show respect for each other and build your relationship. Even if he has no money look at ways in which you can communicate so that it doesn't have to be the most expensive present in the world.

When I ask my wife what she wants for her birthday, and she says "Nothing" that is what she gets.
I can't tell you how frustrated I get, spending days and days looking for the perfect Christmas Gift, or Birthday Present... then watching her open it... look at it... smile... and then ask for the reciept so she can take it back.
If you want something, tell me what the hell it is, so I can go get it and make you happy. I'm not wasting any more time looking for the perfect thing to go back.

Yeah tell him the truth.. that way you will enjoy your birthday to the fullest. You should always tell the truth. honesty is the best policy. if they cant they will give you something from the heart. its better to mention to get no reponse then to never mention and having no hope to have it come alive. Go for it. why beat around the bush or if its exspencive. mention the 2nd best thing youve wanted.

Tell him the truth... get what you want. Its a bday he probably already saved up some money to buy you something anyways.

Say the Truth... don't expect your friend to be psychic! Boyfriends even Girlfriends lose friends because they didn't get the right thing and it's not their fault. How can they get you what you want if they don't know it?

Heck ya tell them what you want. Maybe someday they'll be able to figure it out on there own. But I say yes you gotta tell them what you want because most of them don't have a clue.

well if you want some thing ask for it. He might not be able to read the clues. Never hide what you want always be honest. This way you don't get hurt and he dosn't.

In case you haven't noticed...guys can't read minds very well. So do yourself a favor and tell him what you want and then let him make his mind up for himself if that's what he wants to do.
