My BF gets me too many gifts



So my BF gets me gifts a lot and I don’t have time to go out and buy him anything. What should I do?

It sounds like your BF likes buying you gifts as a way of showing how much he cares about you. It’s super sweet of him, but can make you feel like you need to do the same for him. A relationship isn’t about presents—it’s about building a meaningful connection—but let’s face it, everyone enjoys a gift every now and then.

 

Instead of browsing the mall in search of a generic gift, give him something unique that he’ll really appreciate. Bake him a batch of homemade cookies after a tough test, or make a poster and cheer him on at his big lacrosse game. Plan a date at the park, and surprise him with a picnic full of his fave foods.

 

If the idea of your guy buying you gifts really bothers you, try talking to your BF and explain the sitch to him. Just be honest—tell him that you appreciate his thoughtfulness, but would rather spend your time hanging out with him than shopping for the perf present. Make an agreement to only buy gifts for each other on special occasions, and even then, remember that a material item doesn’t buy happiness.

MOD MOD MOD I really liked this guy and we started talkin and he is a total jerk and yesterday he asked me out wAt should I say




Hey girlie,

Ok, so you used to like him... then you found out he was a jerk. Do you still like him? If not, be honest - thank him for asking but tell him you think you would be better off as friends. Turning him down gently is WAY better than going on a date when you don't want to <3

Okay, I was talking to this guy for about 2 weeks, and now he has finally asked me out. His birthday is this week about i have no clue what to get him! I dont really know every single one of his interests, but he likes music and soccer. So I was thinking an ITunes gift card, but i think as his girlfriend it should be more special and have more thought put into it! Any ideas?! Thanks so much!!




Hey girl!

Since you guys haven't been together long, don't stress too much! You'll have plenty of time to further learn his interests and hobbies. An iTunes gift card sounds like a great idea. It shows that you've paid attention to the things he's into and he'll appreciate that. Get him a funny birthday card to go along with the gift. As your relationship progresses, you'll be able to think of more awesome gifts because you'll know each other better!
