GO this weekend on a lunch date at a mall - then cruise the mall with her. you'll notice she may stop and look at something, if she tells you "this is nice" that's what you get her.

Right now I'm doing my homework for my wife. You'll notice a woman will NEVER directly ask for something they just drop suttle hints.

then I really gotta pay attention to these little subtle hints


im 19, she is 21, we are extreamly close...she is going to be the one I claim as mine in a few years

for her bday I gave her a necklace, night at hilton hotel in niagara falls, casino..dinner


I dont necessarily want to top myself...but I want to do something nice. she will NEVER ask for anything...or expect anything...so its difficult.

i'm in a similar situation right now. got back with the one i love after separating for about a year. she is definitely the one i want to wake up to for the rest of my life. And because we are back on, i dunno what to get her for her xmas gift.

i was thinking about a outing to montreal or somewhere for a few days. or maybe a 2 day trip to niagara. i seen a few really good deals on - 2 nights, with breakfast, campaign, and a room overlooking the falls for about $150.

maybe consider that... don't have to break the bank, and yet still enjoy your time together

I think that answers the question nicely

as for what to get ... you could have some fun and have a rose delivered to her in a different way every day leading up to Christmas for the month of December

one day is to be a singing telegram dude ...

next it could be a rose on a pillow

next day it might be a rose in a box sent annoymously

one day might be a cookie flower...

etc....

I wonder why I'm still single

$1000? that enough dough for the 2 of you to take a trip together.

That will do you nicely if you go to Vegas or Mexico

yea, I checked out the inns at blue mountain, and for 700 It will basically cover a room for 2 nights with a ktichen...living room...dinning room one bedroom with king bed...fireplace and everything if we do it MID week, it also includes lift tickets and such. so I dont know her schedual, nor do I wnat her to book of dates that I planned becuase she will know something is up...and besides...I dont know how the weather will plan out. im going to get the brochure sent to me in the mail. then ill get a gift certificate to cover the costs of the best place to stay...and we will plan it together....I think that willbe nice.

I'm probably getting my fiance an Apple I-Pod. She'll get lots of use from it, but she wouldn't buy it on her own. Spa day is a good idea too. Or maybe earrings and a diamond necklace.

I think that explains it nicely... lol I don't know what I would do if a singing telegram showed up at my door. Those guys probably get laughed at a lot. What a crappy job.
As for the gf... trips are always fun. I think memories are better than diamonds. Wait.. did I just say that?

give the gyal dem a kick to the curb and get yourself a present of a nice new hotter gyal!

day at the spa also is fairly decent...women love to be pampered and lord knows I aint gonna do it, so I'll pay somebody else to

You are lucky, my gf doesnt drop hints on anything. She just says i dont want anything. Onless this is a cover up. How do i know what she thinks is "nice". Like a decent gift for her if she doesnt drop hints?
