We all receive gifts from time to time and we ourselvesact as gift-givers. Men usually present their girlfriends with jewelry, modest or, on the contrary, defiantly huge bouquets of flowers, soft toys and perfumes. Ladies of the heart do not remain in debt and also present their beloved with gadgets, wallets, expensive lighters, sweaters and knitted scarves. But the longer people are close to each other, the more difficult it becomes to choose a present. It seems that after three or four or more years of dating, so many gifts have been presented that you no longer know how to surprise your soulmate. Of course, if your girlfriend will be happy with the one hundred and twenty-first bracelet, and your man will be delighted with a new keyboard, then why not. After all, the main thing is to bring joy to a close and dear person. But, you must agree, sometimes the soul requires a fairy tale, especially since there is nothing more destructive to a relationship than the usual routine and predictability. Therefore, we suggest adding a little creativity and presenting an unusual, original and memorable gift for the next holiday (or better yet, just like that, for no reason). Today we will tell you about possible options for a romantic gift for your loved one, we will tell you how to make a choice and what mistakes should be avoided.
Classic mistakes in choosing gifts
According to John Gray, an American writerand an expert in the field of family and human relations, - then men came to us from Mars, and women from Venus. This explains a lot: the difference in views and ways of thinking, actions and reactions in certain situations. After all, very often between lovers there is a classic misunderstanding: he said something, and she immediately got offended. At the same time, the guy is sincerely perplexed as to what went wrong, because he did not say anything like that. After some time, it turns out that people simply did not understand each other. Are you familiar with this situation? Agree, this happens all the time. You will probably ask, what do gifts have to do with it? The fact is that men are breadwinners and conquerors, accustomed to acting, not thinking. While the fair sex, on the contrary, is more prone to long and painful reasoning, they need emotions and actions. Girls love with their eyes and ears, that is why they are delighted by warm words spoken tenderly in the ear, bright jewelry, costume jewelry and other lovely little things. Due to such differences in views, sometimes unpleasant incidents happen - gifts presented by lovers, instead of a smile, cause disappointment. So, for example, if the other half has repeatedly said that she is burning with desire to have a beautiful watch, it is natural that the lady expects to receive it on the next holiday. However, instead, she is given an electric toothbrush, a saucepan, a hair dryer or another household item. How can you not be upset! Dear women, do not rejoice ahead of time, believing that you are real angels and are always right in matters of choosing a present. Do you really sincerely think that a man will be happy with shaving foam presented by you on Valentine's Day? Despite the fact that these brave and strong "warriors" are not such romantic natures, they, just like girls, want to receive unusual and original gifts. Therefore, to avoid such troubles, not to offend your loved ones and not to make mistakes in the future when going to the store to buy a present, follow these recommendations:
- If your other half is a personsensitive and sensitive, be especially careful, giving preference to this or that thing. So, for example, a subscription to the gym, donated from good motives, can be perceived as a rebuke in excess weight or an imperfect figure. So think about whether your present will not contain an ambiguous overtones.
- For holidays forget about everyday life! Down with the usual shaving foam and scented water, give your loved ones romantic gifts. Remember what your boy or girl is dreaming about, what he likes and only on this basis, buy a present, and do not be guided by the usefulness and need of this or that thing.
- Men, of course, are not so sentimental,as women. Therefore, they are unlikely to be pleased with a beautiful vase or a set of glasses, while a gift symbolizing your love relationships will cause a positive reaction. It can be, for example, an album with photos taken on vacation, or, so to speak, everyday sketches. Creatively decorate it with your own hands and present the boyfriend, he will surely be flattered.
- Despite the fact that such situations are constantlyridiculed in proverbs and anecdotes, many ladies still naively believe that their young man can present a thing that the girl would like to get herself. Remember that extraordinarily beautiful underwear, worn on you, is not considered a gift! Better give the beloved what he longed to have (exquisite watch, mobile phone, mouse, spinning).
- Another tip that concerns men is notforget that most women love the eyes. Therefore, even the most seemingly insignificant thing, wrapped in beautiful paper or presented in an original way, is able to strike the girl on the spot.
Each of us, regardless of gender and age,appreciates attention, warmth and care, especially if they come from a close and beloved person. Even a modest romantic gesture in the form of a flower, presented without any reason, or a favorite dish of a boyfriend, prepared especially for him, can please and once again remind you of your feelings. So do not wait for holidays, but create them yourself!
Gifts for a loved one: romantic gifts
Unfortunately, feelings tend tocooling. It is very difficult, being with each other for five or more years, to maintain the ardent passion that takes over the bodies and clouds the mind at the very beginning of a love relationship. But nothing is impossible, especially if you really want it! Psychologists recommend spending more time together, making grandiose plans, dreaming, traveling, talking and sharing the most intimate. In addition, scientists have already proven that common interests and common ideas unite people. Therefore, why don't you and your beloved sign up for couples' dance lessons, a gym, rock climbing. If you have a free weekend, instead of sitting at home, go to the cinema, skating rink, visit a cozy cafe. And, of course, do not forget about romantic gifts and actions. For this, it is absolutely not necessary to wait for a holiday or look for some reason, because it is much more pleasant to receive gifts just like that, just because you are loved and appreciated. Today, many stores, and even the Internet, sell all sorts of unusual things and items that are inexpensive, but will not leave the person they are intended for indifferent:

Gift for your beloved with your own hands
Romantic gifts for loved ones are notmust be expensive. After all, in this case the most important thing is attention, care and love. Therefore, the present can be made by your own hands. The recommendations below will probably be more useful for girls who want to please men, but the latter can also get to work, preparing a gift for their beloved:
- «Cards of desires». To make them, type on the computer or write manually on the leaves of the same size (about 30-50 pieces) of your second half's dream. For example, it can be such expressions: "I want to eat a chocolate bar", "Take out, please, garbage", "Give me a bouquet of flowers", "Kiss me" and so on. When composing the cards, be guided by the nature of your relationship and personal abilities - can you fulfill all that is written there. Fold all the leaves in a beautiful box, tie it with a ribbon and give it to your loved one with the words: "At any moment, I will fulfill your wish, just choose it. But the cards are valid for exactly a year, so hurry up. " Thus, you will make an original and unusual romantic gift, through which you can not only have fun, but also make peace in the event of a quarrel.

For example: "Ten reasons why I love you", "Unforgettable memories related to you" and the like. Then print out the certificates, fill them in by hand, laminate or place them in a frame.
- It turns out that kisses can be given in the literal sensethis word is in the box. Make 50 to 100 photos with your image sending an air kiss. Take a photo in different angles, in different outfits and places, so it will be much more interesting.

- Modern shops offer greata range of romantic gifts in the form of pillows, cups, pajamas or blankets, T-shirts with a certain inscription.

Don't limit yourself to buying standard onesgifts, use your imagination a little and surprise your other half. After all, in our daily routine we often forget about the most important thing - that very attention, warmth and words of love addressed to a loved one.
Romantic acts in the name of love
A romantic gift can be intangible— do something. Act depending on the amount of money you have, the nature of the relationship between you and your loved one. If you have the opportunity, plan a vacation without telling your significant other — buy tickets and present them in a beautiful envelope tied with a ribbon. However, in this case, it is very important to consider the time frame — will your boyfriend or girlfriend be able to ask for time off from work for the trip. Therefore, think through everything in advance to the smallest detail, so as not to be disappointed and not to spoil the surprise. A wonderful gift can be a dinner in a romantic setting. Today, in the pursuit of making money and professional development, people not only forget to kiss each other when leaving the house, but also simply do not talk. To improve relations, bring back the extinguished flame of passion and remind your loved one how much he (or she) means to you, cook dinner. Then light some candles, turn on some calm music, take out some photos of you together and indulge in memories, which, by the way, psychologists say, really bring people together. If you don’t want to waste time cooking, book a table in a café, or better yet, the whole place. Let it be just the two of you and the beautifully dressed waiters who are helpfully changing the cutlery. A wonderful gift for a girl would be a membership to a spa salon, which you can basically go to together. Take some relaxing treatments, get a massage, take a bath with essential oils, in general, enjoy spending time together. If you like active recreation, give your loved one horseback riding lessons, a hang gliding flight, a parachute jump, a quad bike ride, etc. The main thing is to do everything together! Romantic gifts, as well as actions, are meant to once again remind you of your feelings and the love you have for your boyfriend or girlfriend. It is not necessary to spend a lot of money, because it is not an indicator at all. The main thing is to do everything sincerely to please and surprise your loved one. And whether it will be a round-the-world trip, a gold ring or a postcard with a bouquet of flowers - it is not so important. After all, true feelings cannot be bought, they can only be won! Therefore, love, be loved and do not forget that the most important holiday is the one that is inside us. Create a romantic mood yourself! We advise you to read:
