WWDDFD Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 I'd like opinions of people here. I'm going to go on a second date with a girl sometime next week, and I want to give her a gift. She told me a few months ago on a really offhand remark (I don't think she'll even remember telling me) that she loves Dave Mathews Band and Evanescence, so I wanted to get her something related to that. Since they aren't comming around for concerts anytime soon, and I can safely guess that she's got all of their CD's, I wanted to get her something thoughtful and meaningful; I've searched around, and managed to find a bunch of really rare unreleased material from both bands, and I wanted to give that to her. I made up CD designs and cover art for the stuff and burned them onto CD's; they look almost professional (I dabble into graphical design as a hobby sometimes), and I want to give them to her on the next date. Here's the thing; a) is it too early to start giving gifts? b) is it possible this kind of gift would be seen as "cheap"? I don't really want to look cheap about this, since that isn't the point here. Any jerk can go to the store and buy a CD without much thought; I want to show her that will put effort and thought into her and everything she likes c) is it creepy in any way that I would remember a little detail about her life like this? d) should I wrap them, or just give them to her right out, as in "oh this isn't really much"? Thanks!
jenny Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 no - cool, thoughtful, excellent, casual, second date gift. i'd love it; and anyone who isolate the rare and the unreleased is a better creature than most. do NOT wrap them - that would be weird and too 'performative'. i will not get all het up about this likely being the girl who did you so wrong last time. i just wish you better luck with her this time

She promised me she'd never treat me like that again, if that counts for anything.
moimeme Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 She promised me she'd never treat me like that again, if that counts for anything It has as much worth as all the other promises she made to call, see you, etc etc etc.
