Are Lynnie and I the only couple who don't buy presents for each other at Christmas? I know it probably sounds a bit bah-humbug, but we have 3 reasons for not buying each other stuff...

1) We have a joint account that all our money goes into, so it's kinda like buying each other presents with their money (especially in my case, Lynnie earns a lot more than me!)
2) We're skint as we're saving for the wedding and honeymoon
3) We'd rather wait till the Jan sales anyway as we'll get more for our money then.

Any other couples do similar?

It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
