That is so freakin' sweet. I think the date would be best.

It is a sweet gesture, I will give you that. However, I personally think it's too soon for jewelry gifts (and I'm aware I might be alone there). I would suggest worrying more about planning a sweet evening together that focuses on her pleasure rather than buying her a gift. Maybe take her to the place of your first date or something of that nature. Show her a little extra physical attention. Something like that... or both.

If you are going to give her something then just the date would be the best.. that way she would be reminded of the date when she saw it.

I did something cool for my GF for the first night we had sex...

We had gone to see the Borat movie .. So I took the ticket stubs and put them into those refridge magnets that hold pictures.. I found some the exact size of the ticket..
I gave her one for her fridge and I have one on my fridge...
It has the date of the movie on the ticket..

Corny.. sure... but it scored major points

I don't know that she would scoff. I just am of the mindset that jewelry should be saved for when there is a sense of permanency. The six month stage seems the appropriate time to "up the ante" so to speak, but I would just balk at the idea of jewelry. It's just a weird thing I have I guess. Of all the things I do for and get for my g/f, I haven't once considered jewelry as an option. I am completely aware that there may be no actual basis for my feelings on it, but I have them all the same.

In thinking about it, maybe it's because I get the feeling that you've hit a new threshold with jewelry and you've now "raised the bar". With it could come higher expectations. That's my first crack at understanding why I guess.

MAJOR points, A_C! That's awesome!



Krytie, I think ANY type of ring would up the ante, but other jewelry is okay, so long as you're in a somewhat serious relationship. I don't think you can put a timeline on it.
