good morning. and i hope you thanked him nicely for that lovely briefcase! accept it for what it is -- a very nice, useful gift. and i think he'll get a kick out of seeing you use it every day and thinking about him too. your guy is sooo smart, killing two birds with one briefcase!
I have given MM a couple of gifts -- little things to set on his desk. Except for the birthday gift, the other items were given to him just because I wanted to. I was at the mall and saw something and it made me feel good to buy it for him. But there's an added benefit to it too -- now I know that every time he looks at those items, no matter what happens between us, he'll think of me.
I would take as a little more than him just giving you a briefcase cause you needed one. Maybe he did this out of blue to show you that he cares. Isn't that the best when someone gives you something out of blue, totally unexpected. He was prolly trying to do just that. My advice: Take as more than just a briefcase and get al the use you can out of it!
enjoy,
