Gift ideas for a girlfriend going abroad...

Re: Gift ideas......

At two months I stop calling them bitch, and here you are, buying her jewellry? For shame.

You must do real well for yourself calling girls that....

The bracelet was not expensive, far from it actually, and it wasnt the bracelet that was important. It was the fact that even after telling her I wanted to, she had concerns about whether I would stay with her while she was away. It was the sentimental nature of the gift which was important.

I wonder if she would like me more if I called her 'bitch'.....

Is there an agreed upon colour that we can use for sarcasm here?

Chops

I saw a movie lately called "Candy", really sad and depressing, you might actually like it . anyway I FF the depressing stuff, what I liked about it is the way they described love, can't remember the exact words but it's kindness that floods the soul.

One day you will fall in love and when you do the word bitch will disappear from your vocabulary and hopefully we'll start reading some nice poetry for a change (only kidding)

Having said that I think there is a fine line between loving a woman and acting desperate, it's an art

ps once you get a woman to fall in love with you, ignoring her sometimes can actually make her love you even more, it's an art as i said, a few men can do that and get away with it

I think colour will vary greatly depending on the situation....

Indeed....

nothing worse than having someone smother you.... the way most girls do that is by saying "I love you" way too much.

I'd imagine the topic of this thread would have alot to do with how guys can kill the romance for a chick ie buy them presents EVERY month, flowers EVERY week and pay for EVERYTHING

correct?

look who's talking? the date on the bracelet wasn't the best thing to do in my opinion, I don't think anyone needs to see the date to feel secure about her coming back or you waiting for her, I mean you don't need to see a date to stay faithful do you?

I'm sure she's lovely, for you to start a whole thread just for her!! the most romantic thing would be for you to print all these posts and show them to her. she'll love it

true, in another situation I wouldnt think it was needed... however the whole purpose of the date was that she was weary that I would get over her/not wait for her over the xmas/summer period. I didnt want her to worry about any of that while she was away, it might ruin/diminish the fun of her holday, so I put the date on the bracelet kind of as a reminder to her that I want to wait for her to get back, so she should just relax and have fun.....

that was the intention of it, not to make sure she stays faithful, I have complete confidence in her.

I think she would love to see all these posts and the effort you went through to please her, well done

Jay-684... I am impressed... you are not afraid to publically declare that you are head over heels!

This in itself is a beautiful gift to your girlfriend.

Lol - careful Jay - before you know it you'll be married, kids, the full catastrophy as Zorba would say
btw, I have a theory that the sort of unwritten pact that you two seem to have is worth a heap more than formal marriage vows
lol - having said that , I reckon an engagement of 1 - 2 years is worthwhile.
Marry in haste, regret at leisure
hell - my wife would be laughing her head off if she knew I was pretending to be giving advice here- forget I said anything, lol. & good luck to both of you.

Jay I think you should be careful as the way I see it, You are treating her as if she was your last girlfriend - You know the one you had 2 months ago.

And if she realises that, she'll dump you. No one like to be compared or treated like someone else.

Re: Gift ideas for a gf going abroad......

Give her the gift of missing you... What does that mean?... Put it this way... we only fall in love when we are away from someone... Why? because you think about them... What does that have to do with anything? Well the part of the brain that governs your memories also governs your emotions... OH that's why... Read about Paul Macleans 1952 Triune Brain theory...

Personally... If your gonna buy her an expensive gift you must be bonking her first if not go cheapo... What I recommend, if you're money conscience, is get her a pair of earrings, preferably hoops or ones with coloured stones... I'd go 9ct gold or White gold or silver (18Ct is a bit much)... then as a second little present buy her matching name brand lipstick as a kind of bonus... the name brand will make your chepo earrings look like the cream... If I got her Garnet earrings then I'd get a dark reddish brown lipstick as well as a second lipstick that's alot lighter for high lighting the lips... This shows that you're into brand names... you know what's good, you know how things work and by the way most girls don't know about high lighting their lips... Show's you can make decisions and most importantly it creates higher value for yourself...

If your not comfortable about the lipstick just go for the Earrings... Find out what gold she wears and if she wants or likes white gold just go for 9ct white gold because 99% of 18, 14, or 9 Ct whitegold is rhodium plated... When rhodium plated there is no visible difference between 18ct 14ct or 9ct white gold...

My profession is a designer, I am a natural with the chicks and I happen to work at a jewellery store... I think I know

Buying a girl a gift that's over the top is actually buying her disrespect for you... I've made this mistake before...

The most important thing is to make her work for you... What does this mean? Well here's a little task you should get her to do for ya... let's say she's buying you something you want like a DVD player... there's no surprise to it and you probably did the homework for her... you need her to work for you and I don't mean make you money...

I'll let you think of something but what I like to do before a date I tell the chick to buy me something under the value of $3 and it must be fun and exciting... Some make the mistake of buying me a water pistol so i squirt her and have fun all day messing up her hair... it's cool

Anyway... why get her to work for you? Because no one appreciates what comes to easy... that's why people play hard to get... It's to create appreciation...

Men make the mistake of acting like sperm which is disposable... and women act rare like eggs...

I really should write a book and maybe make a movie about dating and being successful... I'd make a killing

Any questions write me a message I don't mind!

Re: Gift ideas for a gf going abroad......

OOOOOH and another thing give the gift after having a really great time together or after something really fun... Why?
Explaining the triune brain theory before should explain that she will associate the pendant or earrings or whatever with the great time you two shared... AWWW... I'll throw up now... getting to mooshy This thing is called Anchoring... like red on a traffic light means stop kind of thing

And just remember, women are like tiles. If you lay them right the first time, you can walk all over them for the rest of your life.

It's funny that a woman told me that joke. And I really do not think that men think they understand women and vice versa.

LOL. Anchor: an external stimulus that triggers a specific emotional or behavioural response, such as a song that makes one happy because its reminiscent of a positive event..........

Hadn't read that book in a while!
