    Something personal, for her, is what was needed.
    Whereas most males would be happier with a new powertool or practical household item they can do something with, eg. new router, Av setup, drill, socket set; not curtains, table shirt, aftershave, etc.

      I know, it's the age old , Men are from Mars Women are from Venus thing I guess....

      Chapter 1: Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus
      It is important to remember that men and women have reciprocally different natures. Men and women need to appreciate these differences, and cease expecting each other to act and feel the way they do.

          My agent sends me a big box of flash chocolates.

          I re-wrap them and give them to the missus.

          Everyone happy, job done.

                Assuming you have seriously done what you posted then I would suggest you get out quick to the nearest shop of your partners interest and add a late Christmas gift and learn to load the machine and do some washing for 'her'

                    Please do not say ever -"I have done the washing/cleaning/[insert random household task she does all the time] for YOU"
