" &amp;quot;Marty and I are from the same hometown, so heading home for the holidays is never an issue. Unfortunately, where to stay always is. One year, to avoid any arguments with our respective parents, we checked into a hotel. After spending half of Christmas day with my family and then the evening with Marty&amp;#039;s parents, we went back to our room and exchanged gifts. Since Marty is a huge hip-hop fan, I surprised him with two tickets to an upcoming concert. Then he handed me my present. I opened it to find a gorgeous necklace. Marty smiled and said, &amp;#039;The rule is you can wear only that for the rest of the night.&amp;#039; &amp;quot; -Brianna, 28 &amp;quot;My boyfriend, Trey, and I were in a long-distance relationship, which was tough. Last Christmas, I was supposed to spend the week with him, but instead I got stuck having to work and had to cancel my plans. So Trey decided to go to visit his parents. The night before he was supposed to leave, he told me that my present would be arriving the next day, on Christmas Eve. When I got home from work that day, a package was sitting outside my door. I immediately ripped it open and found a red satin nightie and a note from Trey that read &amp;#039;Wear this tonight and think of me.&amp;#039; I slipped it on before bed and fell asleep. Hours later, I woke up to someone stroking my hair. It was Trey! He laughed and said he didn&amp;#039;t want me to spend the holidays all alone so he had changed his flight so he could be with me. It turned out to be a much hotter holiday than the one I had initially planned on.&amp;quot; -Tricia, 31 &amp;quot;Xander, is a great guy, but he&amp;#039;s not particularly romantic. He usually just has me pick something out, and then he&amp;#039;ll pay for it. Last Christmas, I told him that I wanted him to surprise me, which clearly made him nervous. On the day of, he told me to meet him later that night. When I got to his place, he had a fire going and had laid out a blanket and a bucket with chilled champagne. He walked over and handed me a heavy, square gift, which looked like it would be a boring book. I was wishing I&amp;#039;d agreed to pick out my own gift again, but when I opened it, it turned out to be the Kama Sutra! Xander said that as my present he would basically offer himself to me as my sex servant and agree to try any position that I picked. So we spent the rest of the night experimenting.&amp;quot;  \u2014Hannah, 29 &amp;quot;After we graduated from college in Arizona, my boyfriend, Wade, got a job in Chicago, so we moved up there. The city was great in the summer, but once it started getting cold, I was miserable. We were saving money to try to get back to the desert for the holidays, but it didn&amp;#039;t work out. I decided to make the best of our time off and look at the bright side: At least we&amp;#039;d have a relaxing holiday. On Christmas morning, Wade asked me to open my gift. It was a string bikini, which was adorable, but I told him I obviously wouldn&amp;#039;t be using it for a long time. He smiled and said that I&amp;#039;d actually be able to wear it that night. As it turned out, he had booked us a room at a local resort that had a heated indoor pool and a hot tub. He said he felt bad that we couldn&amp;#039;t make it to a warmer spot, but that this was the next-best thing. Since it was the holidays, there was basically no one at the resort, and we had the whole pool to ourselves. And believe me, we made very good use of it.&amp;quot;  \u2014Tanya, 23 &amp;quot;I had been eyeing a gorgeous cashmere blanket for a few weeks, but with all of the holiday gifts I had to buy, there was no way I could afford it. My fianc\u00E9, Lou, was also strapped for cash, so I knew it was very unlikely he&amp;#039;d get it for me. A few days before Christmas, I had a small tree-trimming party. After everyone left, I asked Lou to fix a shelf in my bedroom that was lopsided. Twenty minutes later, he asked me to come make sure the shelf looked okay. When I walked in, Lou was standing there wearing nothing but the cashmere blanket! With a huge grin, he asked if I wanted to open my gift. Of course, I wasted no time &amp;#039;thanking&amp;#039; him.&amp;quot;  \u2014Alexis, 25 Share your own story below! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
