What to give your ex-husband for his birthday - inexpensive gifts as a sign of attention

People meet..., fall in love..., get married, but sometimes this is not the end, followed by divorce, division of property and an attempt to preserve human relationships, because we have gone through a lot together... And congratulations on the holidays, especially Happy Birthday, are an excellent reason to stop hostility or support normal relationship. However, a logical question arises: what to give your ex-husband for his birthday so that the gift is appropriate and does not cause any unnecessary associations? It is best to opt for useful gifts or simply pleasant, non-binding little things.

A gift to your ex as a sign of attention

If you and your spouse have maintained an even relationship after the divorce, especially if you have common children, you should not forget about the man’s birthday. Of course, no one obliges you to spend your monthly budget on choosing an expensive gift, but you can always give a nice little thing. Such gifts for ex-husband include:

Elite alcohol , you definitely remember your spouse’s taste preferences, so you can easily choose a bottle of a good drink that will be appreciated;
Good coffee or tea is also an excellent gift option for a connoisseur of such drinks. Pleasant, inexpensive and non-binding;
A stylish lighter is a useful thing for a lover of tobacco in all forms. Pick up an interesting thing, and it will definitely not be superfluous in a man’s arsenal;
An interesting detective story or a book by your favorite author. If your husband likes to read, give him a book, this is always an appropriate and relevant option;
A box of chocolates, your favorite sweets is a completely worthy way to congratulate your ex-spouse on the holiday;
A universal case for a tablet or smartphone is a very good gift option for a modern man. You can choose some funny or even provocative inscription and order a designer product. However, do not overdo it with humor, your task is to congratulate, and not offend your ex-spouse;
Tickets to a movie or sporting event are a great, neutral gift for any man;
A USB heated cup will be a useful option for a man who spends a lot of time at the computer. Your ex will like such an inexpensive but useful gift;
A beautiful bottle for alcoholic drinks is suitable for a respectable man. However, such a gift should not be given if the ex-spouse had problems with alcohol; the gift will be received with hostility and will spoil even the illusion of peaceful coexistence;
A stylish shoe cleaning set is a useful and necessary purchase that is unlikely to be superfluous in at least one home.

If you still have purely friendly relations after breaking up, you should not give clothes as a gift. These are too personal things that are not very pleasant to receive from a stranger. Such a gift is especially inappropriate if the ex has a new girlfriend.

Why is this necessary?

If you are reading this article, you are probably in some way communicating with your ex-spouse. Perhaps you have children. It’s not so important why you broke up - life is unpredictable and it’s not always possible to walk along the same path with your loved ones for many years. Many couples try to maintain friendly relations either out of practical interests (not to traumatize the child or themselves with unnecessary scandals and reproaches), or for reasons of a higher order - yes, they decided to separate, but the person is a good one! And where there is communication, there are birthdays.

To give or not to give is up to you. Some people should limit themselves to a phone call. But a birthday is a good occasion to express your goodwill and acceptance. Sometimes such a step can put an end to quarrels and establish neutral but respectful communication.

Inexpensive gifts for your ex-spouse

What can you give your ex-husband on a modest budget, but without making the gift look cheap? In general, how can you avoid offending your ex while saving money? It’s very simple to choose a pleasant but symbolic gift:

Stylish notepad for a business person;
An interesting business card holder or card holder for discount cards is a relevant item for every modern person;
A small, convenient key holder;
A cool kitchen apron if your ex-spouse has not yet acquired a permanent passion. Choose a funny apron design and you will get a very interesting joke gift for your ex-husband;
An anti-stress toy is a cool thing that is suitable for every person nowadays;
A keg of your favorite beer, you must remember what drink your spouse preferred;
An electronic corkscrew is a funny but useful gadget in everyday life that men should appreciate;
A beer glass or personalized mug is a banal, but no less necessary and useful gift that will definitely be used;
A flash drive with an interesting shape will never be out of place in the arsenal of a modern person.

Gifts around the computer

A man who spends most of his day in front of a monitor can be given...

External hard drive. Even those who prefer to store their gigabytes in the cloud would benefit from a separate archive for the most important files. If funds allow, choose an SSD drive, they are much more interesting and faster, there is a good line of such drives from Samsung SSD Pro; among traditional HDD drives, drives from Western Digital and Seagate have always been good.
Subscribe to an Internet service (for example, Amediateka video services, ivi.ru), to a computer magazine (option for conservatives), software (antivirus for 1 year), iTunes prepaid cards, or make a gift directly in the Google Play Market.
A card reader is a useful thing in electronics that does not take up much space
Headphones, if you know which manufacturing companies are held in high esteem by your ex-husband

Trick gifts for your ex-husband

A birthday is the perfect chance to tease your ex-spouse. Presenting something ambiguous, funny, with a witty twist. The main thing is not to overdo it, so that the gift does not look really offensive, but only slightly tickles your nerves and affects your pride. If you want to annoy or provoke your husband a little, you can give him:

A cartoon that will make fun of his shortcomings in a creative way. Just don’t overdo it with highlighting the minuses of your ex, otherwise the present may turn into a huge scandal;
A pillow in the shape of a woman's breast is suitable for a man who has not yet found a life partner. In this subtle way, you will seem to dispel his loneliness and troll his spouse;
Underwear with provocative inscriptions is a present on the verge of a foul, which can become a very good joke or an excellent reason to be offended. Therefore, think twice about whether to give such a gift to your ex-husband;
A T-shirt with the inscription “looking for a hostess” or something like that. Quite a funny joke for a lonely man and it will fake joy for you and your ex, which is not a holiday for the soul;
A cookbook is relevant if your husband has never cooked, and now you have to feed himself. Such a subtle trick will cheer you up and become a little revenge on your ex-spouse;
Puppy. If a single lady over 30 must have a cat, then a man must have a dog. A very ambiguous decision, especially if you accompany the gift with the necessary comments. If you are not confident in your ex-spouse and his ability to take care of living beings, you can present him with a robot dog; it will look no less funny;
The gift edition of the Kama Sutra is a very provocative gift that will serve as a strong hint... but it won’t directly offend the birthday boy.

Show feelings

If your feelings for him are romantic, and you would like to hint at this, to return his attention and affection, this can also be done with the help of a correctly chosen gift for his birthday or coming of age. This means that you can give your guy something special and with a subtle, pleasant hint!

What is worth giving a guy is a bracelet. A modest and unobtrusive gift, but at the same time - with meaning. On the bracelet, on its metal part, you can make a small inscription-engraving and write everything you think is necessary. Such a gift can evoke a lot of feelings in the birthday boy!

A cute and modest souvenir for a young man - fortune cookies. The trick of such a surprise is in its content, namely in the predictions that the birthday boy will find inside the cookies. Anything you want can be there! You can easily bake this gift yourself, and you can put any notes inside.

A shirt is a very personal gift that always symbolizes a special, close relationship. On the one hand, what's special about the shirt? But choose carefully and give it to your guy and he will feel that your relationship is special. The main thing is to choose an impeccable design and style so that he wears it with pleasure.

A disc can be a very interesting gift. Not ordinary, of course - who needs it. And a real licensed disc with his favorite game, movie or music group. Such a present is unexpected and will cause a fabulous reaction, believe me! The guy will understand that you know and appreciate his tastes, and this is worth a lot.

What should you not give?

No matter what kind of relationship you have with your ex-husband, there is definitely no need to deliberately provoke him into a quarrel or offend him with a gift. By doing this you will humiliate yourself first. Therefore, no matter how much you want to take revenge on your ex, refrain from the following gift options:

Money is a very ugly attempt to demonstrate one’s own superiority, or to emphasize the financial insolvency of a spouse;
Rubber woman - rude and straightforward, such a gift clearly speaks of your resentment;
Alcohol , if it was the reason for your divorce. Such a gift will only humiliate the ex-spouse;
Intimate things that would hint at your desire to restore the relationship. With such a gift you can put both yourself and your ex-husband in an awkward position;
Very expensive gifts : jewelry, expensive gadgets, branded clothing. These are gifts that oblige your ex-spouse to make certain gestures in your direction; this will not lead to anything good.

With high mileage: what to give to a motorist

a pillow or car blanket is worth giving if your ex-husband likes to travel by car or his work involves long-distance travel

The video recorder is not yet the most common car gadget, but it is gaining great popularity. In any unclear situation, he will come to the rescue
Driver safety glasses are useful in sunny weather and can prevent dangerous situations

TOP 15 practical gifts for men

Gift Baskets

Now is the time when a person thinks through many moments of life in advance in order to make them easier. Many people know from their own experience that sometimes it is so difficult to decide on a gift. Therefore, ready-made gift sets were invented. Their content can be completely different.

For example, gift sets from joke shops are quite widespread. Such a gift does not carry any material value, because most often it is intended to create a fun moment. But after itself, such a set will leave an unforgettable mark in the memory, and will bring a lot of smiles and fun. When choosing such a gift, you need to be sure that the recipient will take this joke in the right form, otherwise it can lead to a rather sad end to the holiday.

You can always pay attention to cosmetic sets, sets of memorable gifts and souvenirs. A gift is always, first of all, attention, which every loved one so lacks.

Second category of gifts: I care about you!

More expensive and personal items appear here. You tell the person that you know him well and show warmth and care. In fact, they are no different from gifts to a good friend. Unless they should be too intimate, so New Year's gifts for your ex need to be chosen very carefully. It’s worth sitting down and thinking carefully. Remember his life and what can be improved in it. Maybe your ex doesn't have an ashtray and smokes in plastic yogurt cups? Or is there the last frying pan left with a broken handle?

“A hoverboard, a quadcopter and this strange thing...”

Light alarm clock;
Good headphones;
Virtual reality glasses;
Gaming computer mouse;
3D pen;
Instant camera with cartridge (and try it right away!)

In general, browse the stores of gadgets and unusual electronic devices; new items appear all the time. It is worth looking in the area of his hobbies. An addition to your favorite board game, an annual WoW account (or “how to screw over your ex’s new girlfriend”), a certificate for going to a shooting range, a subscription to a water park or the nearest cinema.

Is your ex interested in sports? Gift a fitness tracker, pedometer, digital body fat analyzer, water bottle with reminder timer, wristband, or protein shaker. A car enthusiast may find it useful to have a car organizer, a communicator or a massage cover on the seat; Finally, a home-baked cake or a pan of your favorite borscht. Purely in a friendly way, of course!

Cons: It's easy to get carried away and go overboard. The gift must be appropriate both in content and in value. You should not give too intimate things or photographs together.

You should be especially careful when choosing tool sets and other harsh manly items. Hand on heart: men don’t know the difference between highlighter and concealer, and we don’t know the difference between pliers and pliers. What is the probability of choosing the ideal electric drill?

Pros: You guessed it, you guessed it. And this will be an ideal gift that will be remembered for a long time and will strengthen good friendships.
