It won’t be long until Christmas; what did you get for your girlfriend? While other people are rushing around like lemmings looking to define their love in dollars, you can skip the crowds and anxiety this Christmas by trying out these alternative gifts:
The Experiential Christmas:
Lets face it. Most Christmas presents get thrown away. Why spend tons of money on clothes or DVDs that have a small life span when you could spend it on making a memory that lasts forever? (Or until you accidentally give her a concussion from trying the Italian chandelier.)
Try something that neither of you have done before like looking up a local rock-climbing gym and take a climbing lesson, or get cooking or dancing classes for the two of you. There are a lot of places that offer hands-on experiences that range from making and painting pottery to taking a winery tour and doing a tasting afterwards. Its customizable, memorable, romantic, you can avoid the box store crowds, and there’s nothing to throw away!
Something Fun For Everyone:
Sure it’s the season of giving, but why not enjoy it? Try giving her presents you both can enjoy, like the new we-vibe toy that she can use while you’re inside of her, lingerie that she looks hot in, or Rogue Brewery’s Hazelnut Brown Nectar ale. (Or if your girlfriend isn’t a beer geek like me, try tequila or another tolerable tasting booze).
Extra-Special:
If she’s a really special girl, nothing will tell her that more than something you’ve made. You didn’t just spend ten minutes at the mall picking out something in her favorite color; you really put something into it. Women find it really flattering when guys go out of their comfort zone to do something sweet. The best present I’ve ever received is a picture frame my boyfriend painted for me for my birthday. It doesn’t matter how pretty or expensive it is, it’s that you took the time to make something just for her.
The best gifts are the ones you put thought into, and she’ll know and appreciate it if you do. What would your ideal present be?
