Almost 25 years with my girlfriend (kbin.earth)

I am not sure how to commemorate with a present. I talked about it, but she said last year can't get better.

Last year I said I was going for bird feed and groceries, came home with a bottle of wine, bonbons and a big ass vase filled with 24 flowers and presented the gifts in stages 'ooh yeah forgot this one'. She was already happy with the choco.

One hand shopping bag, other arm vase and flowers because it did not fit in a bag walking home on icy pavement, I don't have a driver license so had to tread carefully, could have broken the vase, my legs and neck.

Maybe I'll finally go on my knees and ask her to marry? We argue sometimes who should propose. I just don't want to jinx our relationship.

If i was in that position I would try to make a nice dinner and if i would give a gift it would be something unexpected and unconventional. Last gift i gave was a handful of whole walnuts(we both dont have a nutcracker). You could do the "forgot this one thing" but start with something cheap and unexpected, something what makes her laugh and also think "why the hell would give this to me"

If you want to marry you could do the same but start with a particularly nice looking pebble
