uh, not being good at giving gifts doesn't make you a shallow guy. that's as normal as it gets.

Then I should right a book and make millions, because I tihnk its easy.

hope you have a good editor

I laughed sooo hard after reading that. Im tired, so leave my spelling alone.

Ah, thank you for the tips. I'm liking the idea for the trip to the spa. I'll check around to see how much that'll run me for a day trip for her.

Anyways, thats besides the point. Our 2 year anniversary is in about a month, and shes already talking about how excited she is to give me the present she got. I've put thought into what I should get for her, but I'm pretty much stuck. I'm trying to get something not too expensive, between $50-$100.

For the record, I'm 16.

I've already gotten her a engraved bracelet, a necklace, a stuffed animal, and a mix CD, plus other small things I'm likely forgetting.

Any advice would really be appreciated, as I've reached a dead end.

Two years? So youve been going out since you were 14?

Make an apointment for you two to get your pictures taken together(Someplace real, dont have your friend take them), then take her out to dinner/movies/shopping/wheverthehellshewantstogo.

Edit: Just one of many suggestions, if youve been going out for two years you should know what to get her, unless your one of those shallow guys who are terrible at giving gifts.

Uh, WTF? Yeah, I don't know what to get for my girlfriend, so I must be a shallow guy. STFU, troll.

Im not a troll, your the one who has known her for 2 FRICKEN YEARS, you should know what to get her. Come on dude, your asking for girl advice on a computer forum, how can you say you arent shallow to some extent?

You're both idiots. He's not shallow for seeking advice, but then again he should know her better than us. Especially at two years time. Now I don't know about anyone else, but I think if he PIIHB that'd be a nice anniversary gift. no?

Edit @ Sensai

Trip to the spa? She's 15, how stressful can her life be? What the hell is this Laguna Beach?

PIIHB?

With SAT's coming up, along with the stress of high school, it would be nice for her to take a day to relax. I understand, compared to "real life," it's nothing, but still...

Ah, I really hate posting sometimes because it comes accross different then what I'm trying to say. I don't like it because I never have any good ideas as to what I should get her. I love actually GIVING the gift to her, but the process in finding something she'll love...not so much.

Spends time with her.


If you don?t want to, that?s cool, but considering you said you guys don?t see each other often then I don?t think sending her alone somewhere is a great idea. I know a guy who payed for his girlfriend and one of her friends to go, but don?t send her alone.

The thing about anniversary gifts, there have to have sentiment, it can?t just be a material item. So we cant help you much.

No, I'm all for spending time with her, I was just a bit confused.
I have a few weeks to think of something on a more personal level, so I'll see if I can come up with something.

Neither of us have a car (license at 17 in NJ), so taking the train is the only real option at this point, and it takes 3 hours each way, plus $20 roundtrip, hence we can't see eachother as much.
About collage, we're realistic, and we realize that we most likely will not be together during college. We aren't planning our college lives based on us being together. We're planning on going to colleges we want to go to, wherever they may be. Even so, we still have 2.5 years until college.

so your relationship is just temporary and wont lead to marriage... what a waste of time and effort IMO... so to get back on topic... just end it now and no need to give an extravagent gift...

 

[xSauronx]

i say fresh krispy kremes donuts. simple, delicious. yay.

 

[CraKaJaX]

umm... roses, money. done

Holy good God. I'm 16 years old, marriage is the last thing on my mind. You're telling me that when you were in high school, you dated with marriage in your mind, and if you didn't see a future, you ended the relationship? I hope to God not.

2 year aniversary ? .....and you are 16 ...so you have been going out since you were 14. I am 20, my longest relationship in hs was short of a year. Oh well, to each his own. I suggest you get her some roses and take her out for a movie, you are still kids. One advice though, don't spend too much money on her. Save it so you can use it when you get to college when the real fun begins :evil:

Regards

Man, you're her bitch. What are you going to buy her next? A car? You shouldn't be buying crap like that (sans the stuffed animal/cd) in high school. Flowers at the most!

The bracelet was ~$40, the necklace was ~$20. She just doesn't know it was that cheap .

You gotta realize that you aren't going to marry this girl. Anything over 20 bucks is pushing it, lol

It's not as bad as it sounds. Over the past two years, I've spent ~$200 on her. I'm just cheap.

I think the Brooklyn Bridge costs a little more than $200. Unless you have a coupon code? Even so, shipping would kill that deal.

Look. Pick up a blanket, some sandwiches, a bottle of wine...err...I mean grape juice, and some flowers. Set it up near a lake somewhere, and have yourself a nice little picnic.

I date alot, but have only commited to being boyfriend/girlfriend twice, once I was dumped, the other I broke it off because I didnt see a future. So yes I do keep marriage in mind at all times while dating. I usually date twice, then decide to go out a few more times or just be friends, this way no one gets hurt, I can date people she knows if I choose to, and I date alot more. btw, Im 17.
