I've been seeing this girl for about 4 weeks and I quite like her but I'm not sure how into me she is (yes she has had the d). So with Christmas coming up should I buy her a Christmas present and card? If so how much should I spend?
Reply from The Man Dem:
You don't want to show your cards too early with some really expensive gift as once she knows you're proper into her she'll have the power, nor do you want to set her future expectations high by buying her something really nice and thoughtful so soon. At the same time you don't want to look like a tight broke ass waste man that can't afford a nice gift.
Safe bet is a middle of the road popular perfume (£30 / $50), gift wrapped by the shop so it's obvious that minimal personal effort was made but at the same time a decent gesture is there.
Definitely DO NOT even entertain the idea of buying a card! -that is a whole other mind field that you just don't want at this stage with the 'what card to choose' and then 'what to write in it' bullshit.
