My girlfriend says she doesn't want anything for her birthday. What is she getting at? Should I just get something small and not make a big deal about it? Or do I not get her anything at all?
That depends: how much longer do you want to date this girl?
See, girls will always say they don't want anything for birthdays and
holidays, but that doesn't mean they don't want anything. Confused?
You should be.
Example: when I say I don't want anything, what I mean is that I don't want
an expensive gift or a fancy dinner. I want a card with a handwritten message
inside, 24 hours of sweet words text to my phone and access to the remote for
one evening so I don't have to DVR my shows. It’s the little things that show
you care, but that take actual thought and work.
So, it's simple. What she means is that she doesn't want anything that means
nothing, she wants it to mean something. Get it?
Of course not ... just get her something shiny, that always works. A good rule of thumb is to stay away from domestic items and gym memberships. Good luck and
happy birthday to your girlfriend.
