My hubby and I look pitiful. We have no money and yet today is our first wedding anniversary. I wanted to write a poem and type if for him, I don't even have any money to get any print ink. His mama just gave us 80 bucks last night, so we might just go out to eat. My hubby just got a job and doesn't get his 1st check until Thursday...He is so sad and depressed that he can't really take me out and do stuff today. We wanna go get some Chili's and come back and just chill. But it's just so bad, any suggestions?????

Happy Anniversary! Look at all the wonderful things you do have and smile. You have made it through the first year... the one all the experts say is the hardest. Hooray! The gift for the first anniversary is supposed to be paper... that is the perfect excuse to write a poem or a sweet little note to each other... if it's written by hand it will mean more too. Tuck them away, and someday long in the future they will be very precious to you. Maybe you could make up a pack of coupons too, with things like "This coupon good for one back rub." , it might be fun... don't use them all up in one night, lol.
Happy Anniversary
Wishing You Enough and Love

Happy anniversary. Write him a poem in your best hand-writing, it's much nicer and personal. Even if you only have beans on toast, put candles on the table and it's better than nothing. I really don't know what's so bad about it. Your husband has a new job, you have each other and 80 dollars. That's a lot more than some people have right now. You'll always remember this day and smile about it in the future, when you're celebrating at The Hilton or wherever. Good luck, health and happiness, and I wish you many great years together

Let him no its not that terrible. after all you are together and that he has just gotten a job and next anniversary you two can go all out. and that your going to have a very nice anniversary without spending alot of money cause after all its how you feel abut each other.
So for starters yeah take that money order a nice dinner with it bring it back have a romantic dinner candlight , put on some nice music maybe slow dance together then draw a nice warm bath with bubbles for the two of you. You can make up coupons for him saying what you will do for him and he can choose the coupons he wants. for example. one coupon might say a free all over body massage. or a coupon saying what he can do with you in the sack. or one coupon to live out a fantasy he has. just be creative and have a very loving romantic evening. and yes write a poem for him and make him a card.
He'll appreciate it if he see's your not so hung up on your first anniversary with no money. He probably feels bad himself as men usually are the providers in the family don't let him feel bad. let him know your going to make your own fun and it won't cost you anything.
Enjoy and Happy first anniversary and many more to come!

yeah life sucks, been there. but instead of being depressed turn it around. dont base your life and marriage on money and material things. go get something to eat and go to a park and have a picnic or go home, get your wedding pics out or if you dont have any sit and remember your vows. think back, reminisce. take a bubble bath together, dont have bubble bath use shampoo or take a shower together, give each other a full body rub with some kind of oil, make love. create a wonderful night of memories and love it doesnt have to cost money. be creative, think. but if you let this night be one of sadness thats the memory youll have of your first ann. tell each other what your thankful about each other, enjoy and explore each other. who knows maybe next year youll want to do it again.as for the poem there is the old fashioned pen and paper, color him a card he'll like something from you better than a computer.

Grab a pen and paper write the poem, take a walk under the stars and hold hands, it not about the money but who are with, talk about the past and talk about the future like you both did before you got married, tell him how lucky you are to be married to him, tell him the future is looking better now that he has a job, tell how much you love him and how life won't be the same without his loving heart, let him know what a wonderful man he is and make him feel how much you love him, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

Do you have any candles? Turn the lights down, turn some soft music on, hold him in your arms, and see where it goes from there. A smile will go a very long way. You may not have any money, but you have someone you can make an investment of love with. Take my advise, spend some quiet time and just hold him and whisper your love to him. He'll appreciate your attention, and you'll both enjoy your anniversary alot more!

MOST OF US have been there. Honest. I remember being young and looking around the house for change to buy basic groceries or a gallon of gas, hoping what we have will make it.
The BEST things you can do for each other are free or nearly so. Give each other backrubs, footrubs... maybe he has to do ANYTHING you want (wink wink) for, say, 6-8 pm and from 9-11 you have to do ANYTHING he wants. Or let him go first. Do WHATEVER it is and don't complain or moan and he should do the same.
When you have trouble walking straight tomorrow, you'll be glad.
If you want to simply do stuff to make him happy, give him a footrub (15 min), backrub (15 min), b l ow j o b, clean him up (don't even let him get up), then bring a bowl of nicely washed strawberries or something over and feed them to him. Maybe dipped in chocolate? Grapes, whatever. Then, maybe 30 min later, bl ow him again. He will be the happiest little dude in your town I guarantee it.
Hopefully he will reciprocate.

So why don't you write the poem in your own handwriting, which is alot more romantic anyway! Anniversaries shouldn't be about the money anyway, they should be about being a couple, that loves and cares for each other. Share things that are free... bubble baths, massages, what you love about each other, how you feel when he smiles at you... so much more than money. :o)

Love makes a good relationship not money.take the 80$ and get some movies and stay at home . togetherness is what is important.
tell him you love him .
take a shower together and make each other happy.
be romantic ...
write him a love poem , it will mean more to him. you don't need a printer..

I never do anything for my anniversery....the best thing is to spend time with each other. A dinner out....frozen pizza at home ..doesn't matter. You are celebrating each other dont' forget that. Celebrate where you are in life right now..doesn't matter if you are broke.....talk about the future and where you guys are headed. Everyone(most everyone) is starting out at somepoint.
