Oh dear, you sound even more pathetically insecure and needy than your boyfriend!

For your boyfriend to give an ultimatium over getting married is, to me at least, VERY DISTURBING. Don't you think? What an insecure, distructive and confidence destroying relationship that awaits you.

I can understand his view to an extent if you got, or done nothing for christmas. That does sound a little, cruel.

You could have easily made a homemade card with a little poem or note about how much you love him. If you get nothing for your loved-ones birthday or christmas then expect some toys to be kicked out the pram! Rightly so. I'm sure you'd feel he no longer loved you if he just couldn't be bothered.

It's the thought that counts, and if you did not even show that then I have to ask - do you really "love him soooooooo much" I'd, personally, not believe you.

it kinda worries me that he's willing to put off marrying the woman of his dreams over something as silly as a lack of a christmas present, but then again, that's just me.

as far as your actual question tho...is there anything craft/skill-wise that you're really good at?

*if you're good at graphic arts like sketching, painting, or drawing, you could make a portrait of the two of you based on a picture that you both like.

*if you know how to knit, crochet, or sew, you could make him something, like a scarf or jacket. (it *is* wintertime, so it'd be useful.)

*if you can play an instrument or sing really well, treat him to a personal concert of the music that he likes. or, if he's into music, but you're not so talented at it, make him a mix-tape/cd of songs that remind you of him/mean something to the two of you.

*are you a really good cook? set up a candlelit dinner for the two of you.

pretty much, just find something that you're good at and enjoy doing and turn it into something to share with him.
