What should she get for her birthday?It's important to make sure you don't come on too strong, but still let her know you remembered.It's time to make a good impression.
Step 1: A sentimental gift is a good choice.
If you buy your girlfriend something sentimental, it will most likely touch her heart.You could buy her something that symbolizes how you met.It's not going to be over-the-top, but it will convey that you are someone who pays attention to details and is happy you met her.You could have met in a coffee shop.You may have met her in a bookstore.When you first saw her, get her a book from the section she was in.The point of the gift is to show you care, even though it's early on.It's just a coffee cup when you approach it this way.It has a deeper meaning.
Step 2: Give her flowers that are not roses.
The cliche is that roses are too romantic for a new relationship.You can look up the meanings of flowers.Did you know calla lilies are said to symbolize magnificence and beauty?I wish you a happy birthday, and I hope you have a great day, I'm glad we met!Other meanings would work as well.Daffodils are yellow and symbolize new beginnings.If you have flowers delivered, it will increase the romance.The purple irises symbolize eloquence.Gladiolus is a symbol of strength.The goal is to match the flower to something you like about her, and let her know the meaning.
Step 3: Don't use cliches.
When a relationship is new, you want to make a good first impression.Most people appreciate being remembered so it would be a mistake to ignore her birthday.You don't want to seem like you're getting too serious.Don't use cliches.You should forget the box of chocolates.The cheap bouquet of roses at the local grocery store can be bypassed by you.You're a thoughtful person if you try for something that shows she's unique.That will make a good first impression.
Step 4: Make a cake for her.
Even if you're not a very good baker, she might appreciate your effort.A cake with a creative saying on it will have some meaning to her.You could buy a cupcake for her and keep it lighter.Specialty cupcake stores can be found in many communities.Buy her a drink.Most people appreciate having a cake on their birthday, so she will probably appreciate the effort and, if you actually made it, and it's not perfect, she might even laugh.
Step 5: Buy her something that's moderately priced.
To show you've thought about it, the goal is not to spend a lot of money.You could buy her a pair of fluffy slippers or a new case for her phone.If she drinks, you could buy her a bottle of wine and explain to her why you picked that brand.If you've just met her, don't buy her clothing.Trying to guess women's sizes can be dangerous.Purchase her nice stationery or a print from the local art fair.A good rule of thumb is to spend between 15 and $50 for a first gift.It might seem like you're trying too hard to impress when you spend more than $100.
Step 6: She will love a gift basket.
You should put it together yourself.You can put inexpensive items in it that she likes.Put something in there if she likes Snickers.Ditto with Cherry Coke.There are funny socks.Add in a book and a couple of movie tickets if she likes them.If she's under 25 you could include a small stuffed animal.She likes to do things that involve food so put food items in the gift basket.You could include a new set of golf balls if she loves golfing.
Step 7: Buy something that's practical.
It's a good idea to choose practicality over romance in a new relationship.Don't buy her anything that will make her laugh at her friends, such as a vacuum cleaner.You should buy her something that she needs.She is likely to appreciate your thoughtfulness.You can buy her something more artistic, such as a pretty vase.You can tell her that she only has a regular coffee machine if you buy her an espresso machine.
Step 8: Purchase her tickets for a future event.
Don't make it too far into the future.If the relationship is new, that might be premature.Purchase her tickets for an event that weekend, but inquire as to whether she is available.She wants to see a new movie and you can buy her tickets.These could be tickets to a local wine festival, a concert for a band she enjoys, or a book reading.If you want to take her to an event that doesn't require tickets, you can give her a card that says the event you'd like to go to.That way you don't make assumptions about her time.Experience gifts produce memories if you do them together.Take her to an amusement park.
Step 9: Do something for her.
Maybe she needs to trim her hedges or her refrigerator is making loud noises.Tell her that you would like to help her out with X, Y, or Z on her birthday.She will appreciate the fact that she can rely on you.Give her a card that explains to her that you are enjoying getting to know her, and that she can rely on you as the relationship progresses.When things aren't new, I can be a romantic person as well.I'm taking it at a nice pace and being respectful.
Step 10: Buy her a book.
There is a dual purpose to this gift.It shows her that you have a good sense of what she likes and you are smart as well.Pick a topic that she is interested in.You can't go wrong with a book of poetry.Try E.E.If she is Irish, William Yeats.She is a lawyer.You can get a biography of the lawyer she admires.Try to tie the book into her life.Don't buy her a cheap pop culture paperback or a self-help book, unless it's a book she mentioned or the book a movie she loves was based on.You could buy her a CD from the band she likes.
Step 11: Write a poem for her.
Even if you're not the best writer in the world, the fact that you tried will please her.The poem should be light and fun.A benefit of writing a poem in a new relationship is that poetry is subjective, meaning there are many ways to interpret it.You will want to be a little bit mysterious at the beginning of a relationship.It's possible to focus the poem on an attribute of hers.Pick something like the color of her eyes or her smile if you want to think physical.Don't keep it long!You can focus on a trait of hers.She talks to everyone the same, no matter their status.She loves animals.Maybe it's that she works hard.
Step 12: She will appreciate a nice card.
There is a card that is geared towards a new relationship.The card aisle has a lot of cards.It's best to find one that doesn't convey platonic friendship and is not gushing with love.Poems with statements can fit an early relationship.Write something short but meaningful on the inside of the card."I've really enjoyed getting to know you, and I'm glad we met," you could write.Happy birthday!I'm looking forward to seeing how this progresses.A pressed flower inside the card would be a nice touch.You could write a letter that explains what attracted you to her and expresses your happiness at meeting her.
Step 13: Give her old jewelry.
Everyone knows that a ring is indicative of seriousness in a relationship.Stay away from rings!It's too soon.You can give her jewelry just because the relationship is new.It should be more decorative than romantic.If she has one, you can use it to find out what she likes.If you picked up a pair of vintage earrings, you could tell her you knew they would look good on her because they reminded you of the color she was wearing when you met.You can buy her a pretty bracelet, turquoise earrings, or any type of jewelry that is not a ring.Don't wear gemstones like diamonds.It's not expensive to go quirky and artistic.
Step 14: She should be invited to dinner.
She might be busy on her birthday, but you would love to take her to dinner.You can also make her dinner.Don't assume that she is spending her birthday with you since it's a new relationship.If you can take her to dinner, ask her a few days before.If you already know what her favorite restaurant is, ask her.Ask her where she would like to go or pick something she likes.Make sure to pay!You need a card to come armed.If you choose a place where you have to dress up, dinner is a romantic setting.You will have a chance to talk to her and get to know her better if you invite her to dinner.Tell the server it's her birthday.
Step 15: Buy her a candle.
Candles can be romantic, but they can also be decorative.Buy her a candle with a romantic scent, like cinnamon or ocean mist.It is an aphrodisiac.Don't pick something that's too homespun, like an apple or pumpkin pie.The goal is to show her that you want more than friendship.A nice card that thanks her for the time you've spent together is included in a pretty bag with the candle.
Step 16: She should be treated to a spa.
Tell her that you want to make sure she takes time for herself, and that she has a lot on her plate at work.You can give her a gift certificate for a manicure or pedicure.She won't think you're implying she needs a massage, so you could also treat her to a facial.You can give her a general gift certificate to the spa and include a list of the services inside.
