3 Surefire Rules In Getting Presents For A New Love
Yes, I lived through that period, so tough, so confusing, what should I get for my girl/boy? What do you get for your new love? How much should you spend? How personal should your gift be?Christmas is a magical time of year, especially for those of us paired off and in love. If you are in a new relationship, however, Christmas can be a bit unnerving. You would want to get the best for your new love, but what is the best?
While, there really is no blanket system that will work for every relationship or every person, but here are 3 surefire rules that may make your holiday shopping a little bit easier on you, your piece of mind, and perhaps your wallet.
(1) 1st rule K.I.S.S.
That is, simply buy a small but meaningful Christmas gift for your significant other. Pick out something that you know that your significant other would appreciate but would not necessarily purchase for themselves. The more personal, the better, and price should not really be a consideration with this kind of gift. If you find a book that your significant other has been talking about non stop for a month on the half off shelf, consider yourself lucky and maybe throw in a pretty bookmark.
(2) 2nd rule Money is not everything
Never dwell on the price of a gift. You should not have to set spending limits. Do worry about the price tag of the present as long as it is sensitive and meaningful. A very expensive but thoughtless gift is not, most likely, going to carry the same meaning as an inexpensive but very thoughtful gift. Get something that your dear would appreciate, it might be a simple book, a DVD or even a hairclip. Chinese has a sayings A thousand miles to send a goose feather, is the thoughts that counts.
(3) 3rd rule go with your heart
Do not worry too much about what you think social expectations are in terms of Christmas shopping. Do what you FEEL is right. If commercials are telling you that your significant other wants a ride on lawnmower, but your gut is saying that they want a new movie and a night at home with you, or tickets to their favorite teams next home game, chances are that you are probably the one that is right. After all, you are the one that is in the relationship.
As an added bonus, I am going to share this with you folks out there. A simple rule of thumb is, if you are not sure, anything that initiates together time or an outing/activity is a pretty good and a little bit unusual gift item.
So, do give some consideration on a Christmas matinee to see that movie that your sweetheart has been talking about non-stop. Make a night of it with dinner before and maybe take-home dessert afterwards. Be creative, be thoughtful, but most importantly be you.
