After 6 yrs im sure an engagement ring would go down well

don't think i'd get one for £200!!!

na were not goin 6years, our naill is just trying to stir it up a bit, only really goin just over a year, before that we only went wi each other every coupkle of months!!

so far I've come up with getting her a nice pair of shoes (surely girls love shoes), nice pair of jeans, and some sort of top, i've enlisted the help of some girls that are gonna aid me in the shopping.

then i think i'll have to get something a bit more personal something small but more meaningful, what do ya think girls??

ps our naill, what you getting your woman?? you have plenty of expeereeeince now, prob just recycle the gift idea for each new girlfriend!!



are you mental?.......... do not get her shoes! girls have a very particular taste in shoes more so than any other item of clothing!
and its a bad omen .... you never buy anyone shoes as a present... its ok to buy them as part of the general need of clothing but not as a present!

girls...like myself, at the moment are trying to find Christmas outfits which can be quite stressful and need a few different outfits over the festive season.. if i were you i would say to her casually .. "if you've seen an outfit that you like... i'd like to pay to it" ... she should be chuffed and you haven't committed yourself to a shopping trip. she can pick something she likes, and then get her something dinky like perfume or something to open Christmas day! thats if you decide to get her clothes.

personally i like the idea of maybe going to london for the night to see a show... not only do you have a present but also quality time together!
I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..

You could go for the cheese-fest approach and get her an i-pod nano(in her fav colour) and then engrave something suitably heartfelt on the back.
Then for some extra brownie points you could save her fav songs/songs that mean something to you both and with the rest of the cash either buy a swanky docking station or

that still leaves you with £100 to play with-maybe a selection of lil stocking filler pressies- the mama mia dvd/La Senza pjs/perfume/benefit makeup etc.

Myself personally-it would have to be Flowerbomb by Viktor and Rolf-thee nicest perfume around. But its about £60 quid a bottle.
As for receiving clothes, im more a pradamark kinda girl so wouldnt really appreciate £200 on one outfit.....

I bought mine a watch the other day for her 30th, she picked it. Easiest way.

my dad always told me to:

GIVE AND FORGET
RECEIVE AND REMEMBER


(ps this is not in the homosexual manner rofl)



i dont think 200 quid is too much anyway, way i look at is, I wouldnt feel bad spending it on myself, so why not spend it on someone else

What does this mean??

SidelineKick

In terms if the forced gay sex it should probably be:

GIVE AND FORGET,
RECEIVE AND FORGET.
