No Married Man is Attractive, Except to His Wife. Avoid This Grave Mistake

Identifying the perfect gift for a married man is as tricky as walking a tightrope. No matter how close you guys are, a gift for a married man is a gift for two. Get the wrong gift and insecurity and accusations will flood into that home.

Here are the gifts you should avoid giving a married man;

1. Designer Perfume

No problem with the intent behind it. However, if your friend comes home to his wife smelling anything else other than his regular perfume or natural hardworking man body odor then trouble is bound to come knocking in that home. Whether you saw someone selling some expensive perfume rather cheaply or you can afford the luxurious Dior, avoid this gift at all costs.

2. Underwear

The wife is the first person to see his underwear and she will decide whether it’s time to get a new set or whether he can let go of his worn-out Calvin Klein. This sort of gift should only come from the wife and if a female friend offers this gift then it will definitely lead to a grilling at home.

3. Sex Toys

Unless the couple is quite adventurous and you have been freaky with them before, buying a sex toy for a married man is a big red flag to the wife. Now, picture if the wife is quite reserved, the mayhem that will rock that house will be unimaginable.

4. Baby Items

This could go wrong so fast. What if you bring a baby boy gift, yet they end up getting a girl or vice versa, or worse still a transgender baby? Or imagine if the couple cannot get a baby due to some complications you were never aware of?

5. Matching Sets

Don’t get your married friends anything that comes in a matching pair. Included in it are a collection of mugs, T-shirts, shoes, and even bed linens. The phrase “If lost please return to Njeri” on that shirt is not cute. Neither are the matching Kitenge shirts that you would anticipate them to wear to any sort of wedding.

6. Gym Membership

It’s a great gesture to buy him gym gear, a mild prod to help him get in shape. The only issue is that having a gym membership exposes your friend to other married ladies who frequent the same facility and allows him a two-hour window each evening to leave his phone at home and disappear.

7. Trendy Clothes

Have you ever seen a 40-year-old woman wearing skinny jeans on her willowy yet fat frame? Do you realize how absurd it is to see a mzee wearing don’t-touch pants with ashy ankles and no socks?

Bottomline

The Intent is Good when gifting a married man, but practice caution and be very wary of the wife as she will be selecting what gift will serve its purpose. Don’t say Nim Notty didn’t warn you!
