PrincessPeach Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 I have the same problem... only not exactly a boyfriend. We've just been dating for about five or six months and haven't ever really talked about any serious comittment (which is fine with me, but I'd be willing to be committed if he wanted that). So for me it's difficult because I don't want to get something too romantic, in case he gets me something that isn't very romantic at all and then our gifts just have this awkward aura about it all. But then if I get some not very romantic and he gets me something romantic it's sort of the same deal but the other way around. I know he'll get (or already has got) me something. I also don't want to spend too little or too much money, because it shouldn't be about money, but the thought of the gift. But if its obviously in a different price range than his gift for me then he might see it a little as that even if it isn't meant that way and even if he doesn't want to think about it like that it could be unavoidable. That and I have no idea what he wants. I'd like to give him something that not just anyone could get him, but I don't want it to be too personal either. I'm just in this huge bundle of confusion of what to get him and what exactly we are (and could possibly be) to each other. But I kind of like not knowing where the two of us will or won't go. The uncertainty is kind of exciting, and it's been lots of fun and I don't really want that to change by trying to change our "status" or anything. I know I'm just waaay overthinking everything and everything will be fine probably regardless of any of my blown-out-of-proportion imagined outcomes. I should just try not to think so much about it and just relax. But I still haven't found or thought of a gift and there isn't much time left! I'll be less distressed about all this after Christmas is over.
Author x3snorlax Posted December 15, 2008 Author Posted December 15, 2008 lol thats like me and my bf we dated for like a little more than 6 months, but at least we waited til we were sure x] and YEAH i have no idea what he is going to get me at ALL lol and that makes it SO much harder
getchoo Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Think of things that he likes to do. Hobbies, sports, etc. In most categories there are inexpensive things that you can get that are useful and thoughtful. For example, I'm into cycling and if someone got me a bunch of Clif bars and some bike tubes, maybe a jersey and put it into a gift basket or something, I would be truly ecstatic. The jersey could be an option as they are expensive but I'd still enjoy and use everything. Doing something like that shows that you are more aware of what he likes and does.
