What to buy your girlfriend, our guide to giving to getting some

December 03, 2015

With Special guest Charlie from 'Classics with Charlie'
We talk what to get girlfriends based on how long you have been dating... According to

Try these
1 to 4 dates: a card. Maybe a home cooked dinner and a good bottle of wine. I recommend a Nero d’Avola personally. Seriously, at this stage, you’re still getting to know one another. Anything more than this and it’s going to make you look like you’re already thinking about what to name your kids. This is doubly true if you haven’t had sex yet.

1 to 3 months: You’re going to want to use how often you see each other as a gauge here. If you’re seeing each other once or twice a week, then you want to consider something heartfelt and fun but relatively cheap: no more than $30 on the outside edge, plus dinner. You’re having fun, but it’s not serious yet. Anything more substantial than, say, a book by her favorite author is going to be a bit much. If you’re seeing each other upwards of three times a week, you’re starting to move into more serious territory and you have slightly more flexibility in gifts. At the same time however, if you haven’t had the “Defining The Relationship” talk – you’re not exclusive or otherwise a “serious” relationship – then you want something cute and fun that reflects the fact that you’ve been enjoying your time together. Giving something practical like, say, cookware, implies a more committed relationship than you actually have. Concert tickets, especially for a band she likes, are a great idea here.

4 to 5 months, casual relationship: Same as above, but a gift of $50 at the most isn’t outside the realm of reasonability.

4 to 6 months, serious relationship: You’re in the “new relationship” stage, which means everything’s likely hearts and cartoon birds and barely being able to keep your hands off one another. This is the honeymoon period – sweet and sappy gifts are going to be the most appreciated. At the same time, you don’t want to go overboard in terms of buying presents – going over $75 (depending on your budget) is still going to carry some emotional heft. One of your best bets is something that you can do together. You’re also starting to enter the period where jewelry isn’t a bad idea – something small and simple, like a pendant or earrings – but avoid anything with gems. This is also a good time to prowl through Amazon wishlists for inspiration.

7+ months: Honestly, at this point, you’re presumably in a well established relationship. You should have a pretty solid idea of what your sweetie is into and is appropriate. I will point out that at this stage, practical gifts are more acceptable, especially if you’re living together. Just be sure that it’s something she’s expressed interest in; it wins you extra brownie points for being considerate and paying attention. One thing I will suggest is that the longer you’ve been together, the better it is to have at least one seriously romantic gift. In long term relationships, taking time to be romantic and remind your honey that you care is a big part of relationship maintenance.
