With Valentine's Day
on the horizon it is time to start planning the perfect gifts for
your BF and the date that will end with a V-Day smooch, but what
about the gifts that
you
will be receiving? Having the perfect reaction is key to keeping the
nights romance alive and keeping your guy from feeling defeated. Here
are some tips for the perfect reaction to just about any gift!
Just
a card
It’s
the thought that counts! You know that he took the time to go to the
store and pick out the perfect card just for you. Be appreciative and
promise you will hang it on your mirror as soon as your get home. And
if he hand made it… that may just be the cutest thing in the world,
that boy deserves bonus points for effort!
A
Keepsake necklace
It
may be a bit cheesy and something that you would never even dare to
wear in public, but don’t let him know that! Be more than
appreciative and let him know that it is so special that you are only
going to wear it on special occasions. Make sure to wear it for date
nights and his family parties to show that you truly are a devoted GF
and love his thoughtfulness.
Something
way too elaborate
He
spent just little more than you did on gifts this year? There is no
need to
be embarrassed about your homemade brownies or on sale boxers. Show
that you greatly appreciate the gift and that you can’t wait for
him to open his. Don’t apologize for your gift being a little
cheaper because he won't really know that unless you say it. Hey, if its meant to
be, you can splurge on him next year!
Nothing
Not
all guys are the lovey dovey type, and that is okay! If it has only
been a few months since you two have started dating and he probably
didn’t think a present was needed. If you got him something small
give it to him with a smile and tell him is a “just because gift.”
If he tries to apologize for not getting you anything, tell him that
is all right and that his presence is all that you wanted anyway.
