Why is he being so stubborn about this?

Some guys like to be those mind of gentleman who always payfor everything and probably he doesn't think is necessary for you to get him anything. I think you should kind of respect his decision I mean an iPod is kind of expensive and I'm sure he'll give it back so why don't you try something less expensive as a funny hat or a sweater, he'll probably say I don't want it and blah blah blah tell him to please have it that that would make you the happiest girl alive and blah blah blah. Try to talk to him but don't shout or get angry when you talk about it cause if you guys do that you'll get nowhere so try talk to him when you both are calm.

It probably has something to do with money. I'm not saying that this is true, but maybe he thinks that you aren't as fortunate as he is and he doesn't want you to have to spend your money on him because he feels bad. A lot of boys are like this.

If he doesn't want you to get him something big, just make him something that's always nice.

Maybe he doesn't like getting gifts or feels bad when people buy him expensive things.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
