Expsnsive Dosn't Mean better.

[Discord]

Its my birthday today, i and i got a HUGE very expsnsive flower arangemnt

and then i got a few sunflowers in a glass of water.

I love sunflowers! it made me so happy


My I once had an ex, who thought i'd love him if he spent money on me, he bought me EVERYTHING. We would be shopping in the mall, and i'd say "oh isn't that pretty" and i'd walk away, 10 mins later he'd come back with it for me.

Then i had an ex, who didn't have much money.. and for christmas one year, he gave me his hoody..the hoody that we had to thank of our relationship, the same hoody that he had given me to whare when i was cold for YEARS before this christmas and i loved it more then anything


Expensive doesnt mean better
I wish people knew that.

I totally agree but alot of girls seem to think that us guys should spend everything on them.

[bungoshlung]

not everything, thats just stupid

as long as the gift is meaningful the price doesnt matter





but i do like pretty sparkling things hehe :kam:

BUYING THINGS YOU CANT EVEN PRONOUNCE

[bl0nde]

yah im not a big fan of girls that expect everything to be bought for them... my bf only pays once in a while for things.. but yah i like stuff that means something

[{dC!}]

Large and expensive things could be just as meaningful as small things ...

Although there is a definite stereo-type that large & expensive means better and that is totally wrong.

[bl0nde]

yah maybe if its a ring or some big thing like that.. then yah that means something!

[Bitchin]

I always like to keep it even.. like no one spend more more money on the the other then the other.

if that makes any sense.

[thorn]

I believe things should be even. Neither person (boy or girl) should expect things bought for them. Thats just greedy and pathetic.

I totally agree with Discord, a meaningful gift is far better than a realy expencive one.

[booshka]

yeah I always make stuff for people on their birthdays and christmas and such (I'm blessed with being 'crafty'). My mum knows how much I looooove hand made presents. I just moved away and I had been telling her how much I missed her cooking, so for christmas last year she made me a cook book, individually typed out all my favourite recipes, and the outside was a collage with pictures of her and me together. It made me cry!

[LLaaUUrrYYn]

If my bf wanted to buy me expensive gifts all the time.. I'd be down. I dont expect it but I would sure as hell accept it! ;p

[rawb]

cost of an item suggests higher quality (but doesn't mean it).

after a certain price point quality is irrelevant

while a $5.99 Zellers medium sweatshirt is basicly the same as that $250 medium silas sweatshirt at richard kidd, you will be the only kid in van city rocking the silas shirt. the price point creates value by exclusiveness. the basic 'i have it, you dont, nah nah nah' mentality.

[dapimpstress]

things that you never expect are the best kind of presents... like yesterday, my man bought me this skirt from frequency 8... its the only one there and they havent made that kind for 2 years.. and will not be making it again... i was there one day and said i wanted to buy it but i had forgotten my debit card, and this chick was like oh IM getting it.. i was like suck me bitch... but then she didnt get it in time, and when my man picked me up from work (which was hectic all day) he had it with him, and it made me so happy! i couldnt believe he just straight went and bought it for me outta no where for no reason! hes the SHIIIIIIIZZZZZZZZZLEE FO sho!

[mugsy]

i tend to have to make stuff for gifts as i have no money during regular present times because im in school. but the stuff i make (paintings, drawings, prints, ect) are of the highest quality and completely individualized.

i had an ex who would buy me gold if he cheated, and took me on rediculous shopping sprees. i felt baught. i wasnt a girlfriend or at least i didnt truely feel like one. but i was young and stupid and made many mistakes in that relationship.

the best birthday present i have received were sunflowers and red balloons. :kimmie: its all i ever want because those are the two things that make me smile in that all over way, like when your a kid and you have no other worries.

[PwInCeSs]

yea no
i like expensive things when i buy em for myself
but from a guy its no thing for me id rather not be spoiled buy my guy
its nice once inawhile but all the time no even once and awhile is annoying at times

[.muffy.]

Ive never been one for expensive gifts

I think the best date a guy ever took me on was a homemade picnic down on the beach, complete with a mix tape played on a super cheesy ghettoblaster, and some flowers that I think he'd picked out of his neighbours yard.

It was awesome and I think I still have the tape :)

[miss.myra]

YOU THINK YOU GOTTA KEEP ME ICED YOU DON'T

YOU THINK I'M GONNA SPEND YOUR CASH, I WON'T


EVEN IF YOU WERE BROOOOKE MY LOOOOVE DON'T COST A THING

[.muffy.]

hahah I'm going be singing that to bret when school starts for him

[cutienikki]

i dont like people who spend tons of money on me...i like to have enough money to either take the other person out or to pay for my own shit

[Chino]

Here's a question, on a first date, does the guy buy? OR do they go dutch. Other ppl are really traditonal about that. Me personally, i like to buy on the first date. It just seems appropriate. Call me old fashioned.

But anyways, i agree, you don't have to spend alot of money to make a person feel special. Go for a walk and maybe have a coffee or something.

[MissBehavior]

Seriously, the best presents I've ever gotten were the really thoughtful ones.

A few years ago I collected Beanie babies. My ex was at the flea market and found one that at the time was really hard to find. He called my mom to make sure I didn't have it, and then he bought it for me (it was only like, $10). I was so excited that he had thought to buy it for me (probably the the only thoughtful thing he ever did. =P). It was funny though, because my brother had the same one, and upon closer inspection we discovered that the one Myles had bought for me was a "counterfeit". You know what? He was more upset than I was! I couldn't have cared less. He had taken the time to get me something that I really wanted, and that was far more important. I still have it in with my collection somewhere (along with the ACTUAL Beanie he bought me later. :)).

Give me a single rose, stem of orchids, homemade card, handmade ANYTHING over something expensive any day.

If someone takes the time to make something/get something SIMPLE that I'm really going to like, it means a hell of alot more than something pricey, and will probably make me happier.

[Akeel]

i only date girls that buy ME shit.

whut! whut!

[bebu*funfun]

^fuckin gold digger!

i fully agree.. i rather get personal hand made thoughtful things than objects with a price tag on it. hell... id love to get a cheeseburger more than gettin expensive flowers. personaly i love giving handmade gifts.. even ask my friends, they just mean a lot more than "a shirt".

[Veni*C]

im ALL about sentimental gifts.... if it is a really thoughtful gift that cost $1 or was made....... it would make me sooo happy... its the best when u get those kinds of gifts cause u know someone really took the time to think about it and they were thinking about u! :)
