My husband always seems to make all my surprises be something useful.
I like something useful. She likes surprises because that creates memories.

A big surprise. There's nothing like a surprise to break the monotony of every day life, or relieve the stress of a hard time.

I prefer big surprises, getting and giving. It gets a better response. I love to see the excitement of surprise reactions.
I love a big surprise. Something unexpected. The thought and effort is all that matters to me. When I can tell that u put a lot of thought into what would make me happy is priceless.

I love both!
Wat makes present best is that its thoughtful n frm the heart
A surprise (doesn't have to be big), something useful can be easily expected, while a surprise is more genuine. It's the thought behind it all, not the present.
That is tricky. I love surprises and I love useful things.... I guess I will have to say that I appreciate surprises more because useful presents cater to fulfilling specific needs while a surprise fulfills emotions and sense of feeling loved. Nothing feels better than knowing your partner spent time thinking about you and trying to make you happy.
A surprise~ Always more fun :)
Big surprise
A big surprise..
