What to give my BGF?

I really like my BGF and he likes me too. We aren't dating but we might soon. With Christmas coming up, I was wondering what to get him, if anything?

 

Finding the perfect Christmas gift is always tricky, but in this case, small and sweet is the perf way to go. Sometimes it’s hard to find the right gift in stores, so why not make something?

 

Don’t be afraid to let your creativity shine. Since he’s your BGF, you two must have loads of cute inside jokes. You can start by making him a personalized card. Construction paper and markers aren’t just for kids, you know! Fill your card with memories and fun times you’ve shared, and you can even glue in pictures or notes or mementos from activities you’ve done together.

 

Turn your card into a small-scale scrapbook if you want, but remember to keep it fun. A “novel card” (a card that has so many pages it looks more like a book) is sweet, but ya don’t want to go too overboard in case he doesn’t reciprocate. You wouldn’t want him to feel bad if you got him something big and he ends up getting you something small or nothing at all.

 

If you’re proud of your personalized “scrapbook card,” there’s no reason to feel like you have to buy him something on top of that, but if the card idea isn’t working out or you’re not too artistic, then buy him something funny or low-key.

 

Look around dollar stores, Target or even grocery stores, and see what reminds you of him. If you see something that you think will make him laugh or smile, get it. Give him the collection of little items in a Christmas stocking and attach your sweet, heart-felt note letting him know what a great friend he’s been and how happy you are to share your Christmas with him.

so last year I got my crush a little something for Christmas and this year I'm in the process of making him a hat. At first I thought it'd be a great idea cause he likes to hunt and stuff but now I'm not so sure because he usually doesn't wear beanies just hats w/bills, I thought at first he'd be sure to wear it but now I kinda doubt he will just because he'd like be ashamed just cause he'd get teased alot...but the problem is I'm low on funds and I already made one hat for him but decided it would be too small, then I got half-way done with a bigger sized one and messed up so I had to restart and so now I'm almost finished with the good one and now I don't know if he'll like it! what do I do??




Hey girl, I think he'll love it because you made it for him. Be confident. It's about the thought first and foremost.

I'm nearly 16 and I've never had a bf, been kissed or on a date. Recently a guy asked me out, I couldn't go, but honestly I didn't want too, even though I liked him. He still likes me but I don't like, like him anymore. Now I just want to find a great guy who I actually want to go out with. Why are my emotions all over the place and why can't I make up my mind on wether I like the guy that asked me out?
Please, help!




Hey girl, because you probably don't like, like this guy. I have friends in college who have never been kissed, on a date or had a boyfriend. They're some of the prettiest girls I know, and it's not them. It's just they haven't met the right guy yet. And you haven't either. Don't sweat not having firsts and definitely don't settle. Patience is rewarded, trust me. When the right guy comes around, it'll all be worth it. But for now, focus on you and your friends. They're enough to keep you busy too.

xoxo

Do you have any ideas for a spa sleepover?




Hey girl, start with a manicure and pedicure and then do facial masks and then a makeover (different makeup, hair). You can always watch a movie after too!
