Figured that out---Now, what should I get her for XMas?

Now what should I get her for XMas? I really don't know... 😱 Ear rings, a ring, a sweater...I suck at getting people gifts so generally I just give $ or a GC...but this is someone truly special, so that won't do. 🙂

EDIT: Okay, I am gonna do this for the 1 month anniversary:

My friend (he has more experience with this stuff than I do) is the MAN!

Check out this idea he had for me...

I am asking out a girl very soon, so either I could do this to ask her out (bf/gf), for Xmas, or for our 1 month anniversary; what do you think?

Call her parents and see if she has plans one night then go over to her house with a dozen roses and (ask her out and to) go to dinner and a movie with me.

How good is that?! That is DAMN good!!!
 
I have to say you are capable of great ideas. Personally, I would be worried about coming on a little too strong if I did that to ask a girl out. That is my reason behind suggesting that you use that idea after she has agreed to go out with you. BTW, I did vote in the poll. Good luck, hope you don't need it. 🙂

EDIT: I may have to steal that idea sometime.
 
Zenmervolt, thanks, this one was actually my friend's. Usually I am the sentimental, hopeless romantic, but he beat me to the chase with this idea! 😀
 
Sounds wonderful, but a little over the top for a first date, could be OK if she has really been wishing you'd ask her out. Worst-case scenario would be she is just fine with being "just friends" but this would put her on the spot, she either goes but wishes she didn't "have" to or turns you down, but would be a huge let-down with this type of planning. I voted for the 1-month anniv idea. Good luck!
 
I'm thinking 1 month anniversary, first official date would be too much (we have gone out many times (alone) prior..but not as bf/gf). XMas just wouldn't work out because I am visiting relatives around when would be best. Heh, I'm not even Christian, so the whole XMas thing might be pointless. 😉

What should I get her for XMas then?

Impact55, hey, she's 16, I nearly am too. 😉 We're uhhh...very mature. 🙂 LOL
 
Zippy---is this the same girl you've been meaning to ask out for a while now?

What's keeping you back, my friend?

by the way it's a very nice idea, but hold off on the special gift-giving till you figure out what your relationship status will be with her after you ask her to be your girlfriend.
 
Her name is Heather. 🙂

Well, the religion gap is holding me back, I don't want to feel guilty not telling my parents about us. So really it's a matter of getting the cajones to check with my parents if it is okay. It's not like we're getting married, we're just in high school! 😀
 
lol, you're already thinking about what to get her for Christmas and you're not even dating! Christmas isn't even two weeks away! Get goin'!😉

edit: OOOOH, nevermind🙂 I must have missed something, sorry! *confused whatever face*
 
Bobtist, I would get her something anyway. I will try and ask my parents tonight and ask her tomorrow. 🙂
 
As for an Xmas gift, shame on you for asking. 😉 That should probably be something that comes from you and you alone considering how you seem to feel about this girl. This is as far as I will go in the suggestion: Get something that shows you know something about her, something that shows you pay attention. For example, there was a girl I knew who loved frogs, she had a collection of them, stuffed, ceramic, etc. As I my family was getting our Xmas tree I spotted a really cute glass frog ornament, which I got for her. BTW, I voted for Xmas only because the 1 Month Anniversary wasn't an option at the time I voted.

I...uh...I can't think of anything truly special!

She is amazing at track (she has gotten full scholarship offers from tens of colleges...Duke, Georgetown, Stanford, Wisconsin, etc.), but I think she has everything she could possible have for that genre.

I will have to think on this.

Thanks everyone. 🙂
 
You need to check out a book called Dating for Dummies(not meant as an insult). It's a very interesting read.
 
-paldo, lol, I want to figure it out for myself, that's part of the fun. 😉

Know what I need? A valium... 😛
 
Try for something that she may not think you have noticed. Maybe ask her friends or her parents (if her parents like you) 😉 about her favorite things. Girls are always impressed when you are able to pick up on things they only mention a few times, maybe you could top whatever you get her with a small boquet (sp?) of her favorite flowers. Again, good luck, and I hope you don't need it.

EDIT: Valium is very nice stuff, no matter how much pain you're in if you take a Valium nothing matters anymore. 😀
 
Okay, tomorrow is the day I officially ask her out (we saw a movie together on sat.-rental- and ended up holding hands through it so I really have to stop putting this off). 🙂

How about a box of chocolates, a mix (CD), and her favorite movie (DVD or VHS...I will have to find out if she has DVD or not)? Would that be good?

We are only 15/16, so a bouquet would almost be a waste. 😛
