Great birthday gifts for your girlfriend



What you get your girlfriend for her birthday is going to depend on how long you have been together, at what stage of the relationship you are in, and how well you know her. The hardest gift to figure out is always the first one.

Great birthday gifts for your girlfriend when you are at the very beginning of the relationship and don’t know each other that well yet.

1) A light card, maybe with some humour, with a lottery ticket and some thing saying you hope she is as lucky with the lottery ticket or scratchy as you feel you are because you are together.
2) Flowers, with a vase. Try to find out her favourite colour, or flower before hand. If you have no idea of what she likes go for a mix with a variety of colours and types of flowers or go with one rose.
3) A gift basket is an excellent way to go. What is good about a basket is that you can use whatever information you do know about her to make one just for her. It can have food, candies, flowers, what ever she has shown some interest in. One man I know gave his girlfriend of a few weeks a basket with seashells, a small bag of sand and a glass bowl shaped like a shell to display them in. She had let him know that she loved the beach; it was winter so this was his way of bringing the beach to her. If you have only been out a few times you should still have a good idea if she likes coffee or tea. If she likes coffee or tea have a basket with a coffee or tea mug/cup. A good blend of coffee or tea products, some biscuits/cookies and card. If you know some thing she likes add it to the basket.
4) A nice dinner out is a great idea, but make sure it is part of the gift and not all you do. People like having some thing to open.

Things not to buy at this stage as they are not appropriate or give the wrong message or impression:

1) Clothing, of any type, especially not lingerie
2) Bath products, or personal care products. It gives the wrong message.
3) Jewellery
4) Candles
5) Box of chocolates
6) Perfume
7) No gag gifts even if she has a sense of humour.

Great Birthday gifts once you have been going out for a bit and have a good idea of what her likes and dislikes are. This is the easiest stage because you know more abut each other; things are still new and fresh. What makes the difference in the gifts is if you are in a casual or serious relationship.

Casual Relationship Birthday gifts



1) A card that has a casual tone, but still says I care.
2) Jewellery is ok here especially if you get her birthstone, as long as you do not buy any rings as they can be seen as taking the relationship to the serious level. Do not buy any thing with a Celtic Claddagh, as it is a symbol of commitment.
3) Flowers are still great, but not as the only gift. Make sure they have some special meaning to your girlfriend.
4) Birthday dinner is a good idea. You may want to have some of her friends over for a home cooked meal if you are always going out, or you will want to have dinner out with her friends if you usually have stay at home dates.
5) Gift baskets are still wonderful here and now you have a better idea of what to put into them. They still show that you put some effort into the gift, but you can keep it with a casual tone. You can put all her favourite things into it, foods, candies, books, tickets to a game, theatre show, concert or what ever she likes.
6) Candles, candies, chocolates, perfume, gag gifts will work as at this point because you know for sure that your girlfriend likes them or not. Do not buy bath or personal care products as it still sends the wrong message.


Serious Relationship Birthday gifts



1) A card that has a hand written message by you about how you feel about her and the relationship. Make sure it is honest and heartfelt, not just what you think she wants to hear. It should have some mention of event that was meaningfull to the both of you.
2) Jewellery is great here. A promise ring or Celtic Claddagh shows how you feel and that you are serious and committed to her and the relationship.
3) Flowers as always a nice but never as the only gift or main gift.
4) Lingerie and other things that can be bought at a sex shop may be ok to buy at this point. But not as the main gift, and only if it is some thing your girlfriend has expressed interest in. Surprising her with this can backfire fast so this is some thing you need to tread carefully with and make sure it is some thing she is open to. Some people see lingerie as the guy is buying himself a gift and giving it to his girlfriend, in other words it is more for the guy.
5) Gift certificates for a spa are very popular. As long as it is not some thing she does all the time already. Always make sure they are for relaxing things like a massage or open for her to pick what she wants to use it for.
6) At this point it should be very easy to buy a gift because you know what she likes, her hobbies, what she collects, what she really needs. If your girlfriend was looking at a coat that she wanted but could not afford then this is a good gift. It shows that you care about her, pay attention and took the time to find what she needed and wanted. It is something just for her, not a generic gift like candles or a box of chocolates. Just make sure that what ever you get is special to her.
7) Gift certificates for any thing other then a spa you have to be careful about. You have to make sure it is for some thing that only she can pick out. To be honest, at this point you should have a good idea of what she likes, what she has, and what she wants. If you have to go with a gift certificate instead of taking the time to pick some thing (and keep the receipt just in case) then some thing is not right.

Great Birthday gifts for your girlfriend once you have been together for a while. This can be almost as hard as the first gift, even harder if you live together. You just don’t know what to get her any more. You have already done every thing; you need some thing new and fresh. Don’t give the same thing you did last year, or the year before. You need to show you care, make it romantic and special.



1) Engagement or promise ring. If you are in a long term committed relationship (together for many years already) the idea of getting married has probably come up. This is a good time to show your love and commitment to her. Presentation will be important so that you can show you care, make it romantic and special. Everything you do for her birthday will evolve around the presentation of the ring. Some people are reluctant to give an engagement ring as a gift because if the relationship breaks up the ring was a gift and does not need to be returned. If you are concerned about that then maybe you are not in as committed a relationship as you thought and should not commit to something you are not ready for. However if you expect to be together forever then go for it, get married or whatever ceremony (Hand fasting is a nice ceremony) you want to that shows your commitment to each other.
2) Birthday parties can be fun and special. If you are always doing things at home then have the party out, dinner at a restaurant, dancing after at a club and then friends go home and you end the night romantically with a nice hotel stay.
3) One man gave his girlfriend a book of 52 coupons that he made himself. They were for things like: a back rub, foot rub, pamper night where he would take care of dinner and clean up and she got to go soak in the tub with a book, a night out dancing (he did not like dancing), Breakfast in bed day where he made breakfast and cleaned up, pick the movie, control of the TV remote, no sports day, girls night out, pick the take out, pick the restaurant, etc. What he did was listen when she was upset about any thing, then he would write it down and then made a book of coupons out of things she said. When she said she was tired of making dinner all the time he made the “I will take care of dinner and clean up” coupon. When she was upset that he was spending too much time watching sports on TV he made the “no sports day” and “control of the TV remote” coupons. It was a very good way to show her he listened and cared about her and how she felt. She was to use a coupon a week, though she did use more the one some weeks and none at all on others. She said this was the best gift any one had ever given her.
4) A gift certificate for a spa is always good, as long as you don’t do it every year.
5) Find out a place she has always wanted to go to or is important to her. What ever it is will be up to her, and some things may be out of your price range but you can still make a gift out of it. If she has always wanted to go to some place like China, Australia, Paris or a theme park you can still give that to her even if you can not send her. You can have a theme birthday. For Paris you find a great French restaurant, a theatre show or movie based in Paris, with gifts that she could get in Paris; Perfumes, paintings, pictures of Paris, a tacky tourist shirt or little Eiffel tower. It can be a lot of fun and if you find enough places she would like to go to you will have some great ideas for other birthdays.
6) Find out some thing she has always wanted to do. Then find a way for her to do it. It may involve getting gift certificates for some thing she may have always wanted to do like sky diving, a balloon ride, become an author, or painter or any number of things. You may have to arrange for classes, and make sure she can do them. If she has children part of the gift should be childcare for when she is doing the balloon ride or taking a French, drawing, or creative writing class at night school. Please note that if it is dance lesions you will more then likely expected to participate.
7) Maid for the day, week, month or year what ever you can afford. It is really a day off, knowing that the work is being done and will not be still have to be done the next day. Make sure this is presented as giving her a day off and not in a way that can be seen that you think she is a poor housekeeper. Not many people are going to say no to someone else cleaning up for the day, especially if it means the two of you can have some special time together instead of cleaning.

You can always find the right gift and a way to make it special if you take the time to talk with your girlfriend and then put the time, and effort into it. Money will dictate what you can and cannot do. But it is more important to give some thing that has meaning to your girlfriend then how much it cost.

  1. "7) Maid for the day, week, month or year": Are you assuming that the girl does all the domestic chores? Is this the 19:th century?

    6. I dont think what patrik is saying is retarded at all. And cleaning doesnt make a man whipped or a "girl". Think what he was trying to get at, if you are in a serious relationship for long enough where you are thinking of proposing, then more than likly the two people already live together. Cleaning should be a split chore in a home as it is never just one person that makes the mess. I know when my hubby cooks dinner and cleans it always mean alot to me. As a mother of two young kids, there just never seems to be enough time in the day to get everything done.

    10. I like how all of the responses saying that Patrick is "whipped" are from "anonymous" because they know NO girl is going to go out with their cave man asses. Grow the F up you selfish a-holes! And, yes, I am a guy, a real guy.

      Delete
    11. The "chore" allotment should depend on who does more/less money work. If the man works more outside the home then the woman should do more house work. If the opposite is true, then the man should do more house work.

      Delete
    12. Its not so much a stupid comment, it is just that Patrick is assuming that they live together. If they don't live together, just live by themselves in their own apartments/houses/etc. then it is a very nice thing to do. I do disagree still with Patrick, however, because even if they live together then it should be a split chore, but it is still a nice thing to do because then the girl doesn't have to do even her half.

    13. This means that they can "Hire" a maid... as in someone who is paid to clean your house... Le sigh...

  9. I am a chick, and I would like to say that I would eventually dump a guy that gave me most of these gifts because it clearly means he knows nothing about me and does not care to.

    But personally, I would not pass up chocolates or body care/bath products at any point in the relationship. I love that kind of shit, but would rather get it than pay for it myself.

  11. "Engagement ring. If you have been together long enough that it is hard to come up with gift ideas getting married would seem to be the next step."

    Uhm, getting married is a HUGE decision that requires a lot of thinking and communicating on both peoples' parts if it's going to have a good chance of succeeding. It shouldn't be something that's set in motion simply because a guy can't think of anything to get his girlfriend for her birthday. Disgusting.

  12. Here's a great one, listen to what he/she says and pay attention to what she/he likes and then buy or do that thing. The End. Honestly, what is not to understand? This article was poorly written.

  14. Well, they are not the best gifts ever, but you touched a great and valid point; Listen to your lady and take notes. That is the best recommendation ever. My lady is upset because her younger sister had a baby and her family is all about how proud they are and that p*sses my girl off bigtime. So we are spending new year out we two alone, so you gave me great inspiration about proposing on New Year!! Thanks, thanks a lot!!!

  16. Don't you hate things written just for the sake of being writing?

    The last paragraph is the only with any sense to it.

    This thing has so many sexist assumptions... the coupon book being the worst thing ever! It's an amazingly bad relationship where the whipped guy actually can list 52 things that he doesn't like to do for his mate.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Jesus... An engagement ring? That is possibly the WORST idea ever. For one, it's a cop out. For the rest of her life it will be her birthday and anniversary. I know a few women that have this predicament and they hate it.

    Second, if by some chance you break up, her birthday will be ruined for the rest of your life. My mom got married on her birthday and 12 years later, she got divorced. Gee, what a nice reminder.

    The rest of these ideas are trash as well. I'd die if my man put that little thought into these gifts. I'd rather have a new video game than a spa gift certificate ANY day.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Also I don't know how many of you realize, but if you give a girl an engagement ring on a birthday or holiday it is considered a present and she does not have to give it back. It may not apply in all states, but I know that is a general rule of thumb. So, before you decide to drop $2K on her, make sure she's the one.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I don't think a blog can dictate what is good to buy or not buy. Ultimately, it comes down to the type of relationship.

    Seriously though. I read this, and I'm not sure if this is a joke or some serious "advice." If it's serious, there are some things that need to be re-evaluated big time.

  21. I would love it if my husband would buy me a gift certificate to a spa for my birthday, so yes to me a spa gift is great. I wrote this just before my birthday. I did not get the spa gift certificate I so wanted. LOL. Though he did take the time to figure out what I wanted and what I needed, and gave me other gifts that I loved.

  24. Guys need to focus less on having girlfriends and spend more time having fun. You only live once and why would you need to spend so much time one one girl, unless you have no game or you are fat? If your a guy who is under 30 yrs old and have been in a relationships for the most part of your life then that is so gay lame.

    -Which is ambigous as you can be with a girl for a while and not be very serious, or be with a girl for a relatively short period of time and be serious.

    the author writes engagement ring.

  57. LOL, Justin did you actually read the article? It went through each step - and then you come to "you have been together for a while". It also said

    "Engagement or promise ring. If you are in a long term committed relationship (together for many years already) the idea of getting married has probably come up."

    It also says
    "Some people are reluctant to give an engagement ring as a gift because if the relationship breaks up the ring was a gift and does not need to be returned. If you are concerned about that then maybe you are not in as committed a relationship as you thought and should not commit to something you are not ready for. However if you expect to be together forever then go for it, get married or whatever ceremony (Hand fasting is a nice ceremony) you want to that shows your commitment to each other. "

    1. Lol, so true. Why are so many people getting pissy about gifts ideas they don't like? Not every idea suits every person.
      As far as engagement goes- some girls hope to be proposed to on their bday. Some hope for him to pop the question on Christmas day or new years. Valentines day is always a big one. So why is mentioning proposing on her birthday such a horrible suggestion?

  65. epic article , but can u clear why giving her chocolate or jewel or perfume is not good at early steps?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. First of there may be allergies to both perfume and nuts in some chocolates. How do you know what perfume she likes? You can ask, but the real reason is that perfume and chocolate are kind of like giving your Dad a tie every Fathers day. It has become the standard - I have no idea what to get you so here gift. I also have known perfume and chocolates (and candy) to backfire - the girl was dieting and the last thing she wanted was chocolate. Another was given perfume she did not like. She felt she had to wear it to make him think she liked it. Then he started giving it to her for Christmas, valentines day and other special events. She eventually told him how much she disliked the perfume, just to get him to stop buying it.

      There are lots of reasons for not giving chocolate or perfume.

      Jewellery - simple, it screams commitment, and you may not be there yet.

      However, it is always better to give what you think the person will enjoy, even early on in the relationship. If she loves a perfume or chocolate and has told you that is something she would love to get it is more important and smarter to listen to what she is saying over what anyone has writen or is telling you is the best gift.

  66. Lol. For all you guys that don't like what your reading, I have two things to say...
    1. They are just suggestions.
    2. If you had a clue you wouldn't be here in the first place.
    So shut up, stop your bitching and, (after you actually get a girlfriend), talk to her and ask her what she would like.
    If you been together for a year, you have had more than enough time to find out what she wants and plan for it.
    Most girls want to be entertained.
    Take her to a late lunch and then a comedy show.
    Or try a dinner cruise or dinner theatre.
    If you put a little thought in it, and it comes from the heart she will like it.

    1. You understood, yes! It is far more important to talk with her, and put some real effort and thought into giving her something that is right for her then to give her something that other people are telling you is the right thing. Who cares if anyone else thinks it is a great gift, she is the one who is getting it! And you are the one giving it. It has to be for her from you, and reflect that.

  67. I always mix something classic with a little of innnovation. Don't you forget most of women like corny things, even if they are tough. I gave to my girlfriend a personalized song (a friend recommended to me the site cancionespararegalar, they made all kind of songs) full of our anecdotes. She really liked it.

  70. This is the best gift analysis I've come across so far. I don't know why people are complaining.

    FYI I gave my current gf some lotions and scented stuff (total cost $40) for her birthday 3 years ago (we were together for about a year at that point) and she's still with me. I guess she's a keeper! lol

  74. The first thing you need to do is to pay close heed and notice what excites the person you are presenting with Unique Gifts. You may be able to find a wide range of unique gifts for your wife or your mother only when you are sure which sorts of things she loves to treasure most.
