Gift Giving Etiquette

As the holidays rapidly approach, you’re faced with a difficult decision: whether or not you should buy a gift for that someone special. Gift giving is naturally a very complex proposition; it becomes even more complex when you throw a romance into the equation. As you consider your options and weigh out the pros and cons you realize that there are numerous factors that should be taken into account.

1. How long has this relationship existed for?
2. What type of relationship do you consider it to be?
3. Where is this gift exchange supposed to occur?
4. What kind of gift are you willing to purchase for them?
5. How will they perceive the gift if you get it for them?
6. How much is too much for a gift?

We know, the questions continue almost endlessly – but we figured those were the most important questions you should ask yourself. When it comes to the length of your relationship, it’s suggested that something light-hearted should be given if it’s just been a couple weeks. It’s almost a given that the longer you’ve been in the relationship, the more thought you should put into the gift; thus, amounting to a more meaningful and sometimes lavish present.

In regards to the type of relationship you’re in, think about whether it’s something casual, something extremely exclusive, or a little bit of both. The less serious the relationship is, the less pressure you have to get the “perfect” gift – at that point, it’s the thought that counts.

You should also consider where this gift exchange will take place. If it’s in front of family, friends, and colleagues you want to avoid giving them anything that may seem inappropriate. Also keep in mind that if other people are there to witness the gift exchange, you don’t want to look like a cheap gift-giver (unless you don’t mind)

The last three questions are very much associated with one another. The type of gift is in direct relationship to its cost. If you’re thinking Prada, then be prepared to spend a hefty penny. If it’s a set of matching PJ’s, we’re sure you won’t break your wallet. A very important thing to remember is that, usually, the more money spent on someone is a key indicator of how serious the relationship is/or will become. Think of gift giving as a type of investment, the more you invest in a gift the longer you plan on benefiting from it.

Tips from the Millionaire’s club

In order to bag your Mr. Millionaire it’s imperative that certain expectations are sustained before, during & after the date.

Though there are endless tips and tricks, the following are the first five that came to mind. The first date is practically the test course for the second, then the third, and so forth. You want to be as prepared as possible but above all else, make sure you relax & smile if in doubt.

Tip #1: Avoid over consumption

Remember that during the first date, it’s typically the first one-on-one time both parties have had with one another. With that said, getting champagne happy should be avoided at all cost. Nervousness is expected & it’s absolutely normal but don’t try to drink the nervous feeling away; save yourself from the possible embarrassment because it won’t work. Over consumption also applies to dinner portions – it’s true that your date will probably pick up the bill but you don’t want to order for a family of 4. Again, simplicity wins out – share an appetizer, order a soup/salad and, lastly, enjoy your entre.

Tip #2: No “ex” talk

It’s the first date, keep it simple – learn about your partner & not their past. The question with the “ex’s” will come up eventually but nothing makes a date turn sour faster than bringing up possible heart aches. If you have questions about their past keep them work, family, friend related – save their lost loves for another day.

Tip #3: Keep the conversation alive

Avoid going to noisy places for the first date; if you want to know more about them you’re going to need a place where you can actually share a conversation. Definitely skip the movies, ditch the bar, and bail on that concert- for the first date try to plan something romantic and quiet. This is the first time you’ll have time to ask the questions you’re curious about so you’ll need an environment where you can hear your date’s answers.

Tip #4: Stay confident

There’s nothing more attractive and sexy than someone who exhibits utter confidence. When it comes to your wardrobe, wear something that you feel sexy in – if you don’t feel it you won’t look it. Also, if you’re in cahoots between a thong or boy shorts go with the thong; underwear lines are not sexy under any circumstance.

Tip #5: Don’t forget your manners

A simple “thank you” and “your welcome” can go much farther than you would initially assume. Chances are that if your date is of any wealth, they’ll convey the same courteous gestures and they’ll definitely notice if you’re familiar with them too. You don’t want to look like you’ve been raised by a pack of wild wolves so make sure you chew with your mouth shut, wipe your hands on your napkin, and no elbows on the table!
