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.

How can I be flirty? Whenever a guy I like tries to "flirt" with me I always get nervous and give the wrong impression. My friends always say I act like I'm bored to death. But I'm always scared I'll mess up or say something stupid. And I never have the guts to go up and approach a guy either. How can I be flirty?



Hey girl,

Take a look at this article:

My guy does the same thing. It's super sweet. At first I always felt like I needed to get him something every time, but he always says he does it because he loves me - not because he wants anything in return.
