I guess the title pretty much sums it up. I've been dating this new guy for a few weeks. Everything seems to be going good i.e we spend time together and talk everyday. I don't know whether I should buy his a Christmas present or not? I feel like it could make things awkward if we aren't at that point yet and I don't want him to feel obligated to get me anything.

 

 

Help?!

sure... but make sure it isn't expensive or too personal.... food like baked cookies is always good...or it can be something he might use.. a small pocket knife or something like that...

Ask him, he might be fine with it or he might prefer not to til he knows you better otherwise he will struggle for what to buy you. Speaking for myself I would say no since I hate buying people gifts :) only because I'm rubbish at knowing what to get.

just get him a card and write a nice note in it.

I would get him something small and neutral -- a book, baseball hat, t-shirt, etc.

I think something small and fun that you know he'd like is fine, if it's in the spirit of giving and you don't mind whether or not he gives you something. (He might not if it's not his style and that should be fine with you if you're just wanting to give something and it's the kind of thing you do.)

I've been dating a girl for about a month and a half and she adores animals, especially elephants, so I got her a really cute stuffed elephant for Christmas. I might also put some chocolates in the bag with the stuffed animal. I'd say get them something that isn't a big deal and not too expensive. I don't really care if she doesn't get me anything. I just think she's really going to love what I got her and it was really cheap :)

I like giving Christmas presents. So yes I think you should get him something but nothing too expensive. This is truly the thought that counts.

Something that he's into and make it small (Around $25 isn't too much) and maybe a card. Also, anything small and hand made is fantastic.

Yes. I bought him a nice cologne, but i think i'm going to add condoms to the gift since i found out recently he doesn't use them. *facepalm* :p

 

Something simple i see no problem with.
