teamzissou00 Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 So I was talking to this girl I met through a friend on AIM/Facebook/Texting, and then eventually on the phone for a few months. The friend goes to school with me, but her friend is from their hometown, so i've never met her in person. After a lot of talking and flirting, we became somewhat close, and even talked about me coming to see her. As it happened though, she had been getting closer with another guy at the same time, and eventually started dating him, though they've since broken up. I don't know if she ever had any real interest in me or if it was just for fun, but I liked talking to her either way. When I realized she was leading me on I got a little jealous and mad and made an idiot of myself, so it was awkward for a bit. But we've since become casual friends again. Anyways, i'll be in the area for something unrelated, and we might meet up. Its near her birthday and I wanted to get her something, but i wasn't sure what was too much. I know she likes a tv show and was gonna get a season of it for her, which is around like 30-40 dollars. Is that too much to spend on a gift for someone you haven't met, after something like that happened? Does it seem like i'm coming off as trying to buy her or something? Or is it just too materialistic in general? Thanks for any replies.
dashing daisy Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I think it's a bit soon for a gift. First, you haven't met her yet. Second, you are in the area for something unrelated, and you might meet up? It's not like you guys are together or anything, you are "casual friends" who haven't actually met in person yet. Just my opinion, it's nice that you want to get her something, but I think a gift would be a little weird since you're not even sure if she is just playing games with you or actually likes you.
SoulSearch_CO Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 I think that's a bit much. Just take her on a date - that'd be enough of a birthday gift if she's half-decent.
PrincessPeach Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 A gift is a bit much. If you want to get her something get her a birthday card and nothing more.
ladybugs Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 It is never too soon for gifts. This is a proper and understood form of courtship.
collegekid491 Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Little to strong. If you want to do something for her birthday how about... taking her out for out for something, like a movie or coffee? Not only is it cheaper, its more personal then throwing money at her, which probably every other guy who likes/liked her does.
