I have never been in a relationship with someone through their birthday/v-day/or Christmas EVER.

I just seem to be able to avoid it, or coincidentally break up with them a week or two prior. (not intentionally/well sort of just so I don't give them the false sense that I like them more than I do with an elaborate gift then just break up with them, or not to ruin that day for them either).

Anyway I've been with my girlfriend for a little over 2 months and I really like her, she doesn't wear jewlry and doesn't care to either. She's into physical activities but I was going to wait till Christmas to get her a surfboard which would be more appropriate.

It's her 25th b-day, any ideas on gifts? I was thinking lingerei or however you spell that, and other crap like that.

Thanks

1) no. if you can't spell it, don't buy it.
2) no. you've been dating for 2 months. don't be that guy.
3) you've been dating for 2 months. have you set a precedence of lavishing her with gifts? based on your tone, I'm guessing not. so she's probably not expecting much. take her out to a nice meal, buy her some flowers. Physical activities...like, she has a favorite sports team? Take her to a game if so. It doesn't have to be for her birthday weekend. Can be a couple weeks in the future. Concert tickets. etc etc etc.

2 months is nothing, man. You shouldn't feel any pressure here.

assholes, EXCEPT FOR NOCTURNAL ROB

Yeah I even have office word open here at work to check the spelling, but am feeling lazy (you guys can feel lazy too and misspell anything, it won't bother me).

Well we've been exclusive for 3 months bf/gf 2 months (though yeah... that does not make a difference).

As for lavishing her with gifts, I am not doing that, you're right. I know she would be content with whatever as she is not worldly whatsoever and is happy with the littlest of things. But yeah, probably flowers and somewhere nice.

She likes to do physical activities, she doesn't care to watch em so much, though she puts up with me watching my teams.

seriously though, just get her some flowers--if you get her a dozen red roses, i'll fly down to FL and punch you in the face for being a cliched anus sucker--and take her to her favorite restaurant.

if you know what kind of music she likes, get tickets for a show at some point in the next month. something you guys can do together.

Just remember that whatever you get her this time will be the bench mark and you will ALWAYS have to get her something better next time. If you go all out with something expensive then you will have to get something more expensive next time. Start with a card and maybe some flowers (not roses). Hmm maybe just a card. Its only two months she is lucky you even remember.

Yes, I am a jew.

OMG, take her rockclimbing! See if you can find a gym in your area. If she's into physical activities its something you can both do. Or if that doesn't seem viable, maybe take her bowling or I don't know...horseback riding?

ROFL@lingere.

I don't think that's a good gift even after your married. I can't imagine any guy being able to pick out the right size/style for their girl.

Buying lingerie can be something you do as an activity. I can see how not everyone could go for it, and maybe not at two months, but it could be fun.

Although childish, I remember her talking about this go-cart place (really fast ones that she likes).

But yeah, screw the undies thing, she fluctuates from like 110lbs to 125lbs at 5'5 so I don't feel like guessing or anything.

And... on the one up thing, yeah I have thought about that, I better start out really small now. Maybe take her to ruby tuesday's, and only allow her to eat at the salad bar.

I agree with Shari. Take her rockclimbing, or if she's not into THAT much physical activity, hiking. Make a weekend of it. Backpack a stretch of the AT (If you're in the area) or another place, camp out. It's physical, it's romantic because it's just the two of you and something enjoyable. It's not too forward for a relationship since it's not a diamond ring, and best of all, it's cheap. Also this time of year it might just get you some for free. Sex is a great way to keep warm at night. As Neil Patrick Harris said it best: "Salty girls on an endorphin rush that just wanna lay down."

Childish fun is often the best kind of fun... go-carting, mini-golfing, amusement park(ferris wheel).

The only lingerie she needs is to get undressed.

If you go with flowers, get some that will last a long time like African Daisies, Orchids, Calla Lilies, etc.

It's because of something that causes her muscles build really fast. Her biceps are pretty big for a girl. Not as big as mine though, mine are pretty gigantic.

Yeah i'll probably look into that go-carting thing, unfortunately LSU plays at 3:30 on Saturday (b-day day), so that might be a no go, I'm sure she'll understand.

Depending on her personality type, you could also go with stuffed animal or gigantic black dildo. Maybe both. You ever see a large fluffy stegosaurus with a strap-on? Hot secks.

So the weirdest thing just happened....

I was asking some people in my office where a good place to take her would be (since I am a LITTLE new to the area). And someone (again) suggested the brazillian steakhouse in Delray Beach. I was like hmm ok... (expensive, but that's not a problem).

About 10minutes ago my girlfriend calls me saying that one of her customers asked if she was going to be there at work on saturday she said "no it is my birthday"

He said "ohh well get your boyfriend and your friends and pick a place and I will make a reservation and pay for it" (he is not coming fyi). And she happened to pick that brazillian steakhouse, and called me to see if I wanted to do that. I said... sure.

Just go with the same kind of bullshit you used to get the relationship started in the first place.

If she's a rabid liberal and you didn't meet at the gun club, don't buy her a Winchester. If she's an arch-conservative, don't get her front row seats to the DNC.

Either way, make sure she's either into anal or ether before spending large sums of money.

I decided to go to this cool go-kart place. These things go up to 45mph (which is pretty fast for something so close to the ground). And it's $19.50 for 8 minutes per person. and $10 for a high-speed racing license or something like that.

I was either going to do that or go rent some jet skiis. But I think she can't find her bathing suite top (laundry mix up) so I don't want to worry her.
