You clearly like her. Why mess around?.....

price limit?

vouchers for massage or something girly and indulgent

A gun rack?

ODB,

What carbon337 said. if you're still in the dating zone, make it a "mega" date!?

DB

Something not high value but with some thought behind it.

Sweet merciful Zeus, she's expecting you to get her a present after only 10 days? Not getting her one "Won't go down well"?

RUN! RUUUUNNNN!

How about tickets for this?

Mrs Toast speaks sense.

odannyboy, I thought I was a pretty swift mover but to go from cohabiting with the mother of your children under a cloud of despair to dating in a matter of weeks is quite the remarkable turnaround.

Get her some flowers. 10 days is too soon to be [i]demanding[/i] gifts. What has she got you?

shes well into me

I'm with MrsToast. If she expects a present already she is a grabbing harpy so you should save the money and buy yourself some running shoes.

However, if she has not indicated the requirement for gratification in the form of gifts, then she might be a nice person.

Tricky area because yes, you will be judged. Thoughtfulness and knowing what she likes (which will mean you have listened to at least two words rather than staring at her chest) will score big points.

Spending loads of money is out, as if she is a nice person she will think "what kind of slapper does he think I am that he can buy my affections". If she likes expensive present, well then it's back to the start.

If you don't know what she likes you are in trouble, however help is at hand. Champagne. Not too expensive, £20-30 should buy you a bottle actually made in France.

If she doesn't drink, you are screwed. Or not, as is more likely.

No need to thank me.

Sweet merciful Zeus

😆

What about a nice little gift that has some thought behind it, not the usual cliched rubbish. Something that appeals to her as an individual.

What is the reason behind the gift? Birthday, or something else? You say you've only known her for 10 days, is that in the biblical sense, or in the frienship/dating sense? Or have you known her in the dating/frienship sense for longer?

No suggestions from me at the moment!

It wouldn't occur to me to get a present for someone I'd known for 10 days. Different if they were moving into a new flat, starting a new job etc, but otherwise definitely not. Otherwise you start getting into that dreadful "and then Dave got me this for out 3-month anniversary" situation.

And anyone who expected one would get the elbow; if , on the other hand, I was "well into" (urgh, horrible phrase) someone, and [i]wanted[/i] to get them a present...well, that's a completely different scenario.

Doesn't sound to me as though you want to buy her a present, ergo you should refrain from doing so.

what about some shiney bike bits.... (make sure they fit your bike)

Singletrackworld subscription??

If she is 'well into you' and happy being referred to as a 'bird', could I respectfully suggest a nice kebab and a bag of chips as a suitable gift to mark the occasion?

anal lube?

been seeing someone for not too long and she suggested a weekend away. sounded good, she suggested york and asked me to organise it.
brilliant, we went to the steam train gala at pickering and spent a couple of nights at the brewery in cropton
she might organise the next one, if there is one....

Give her an angry pirate.

Get her a bible. Should scare her off.

Pearl necklace?

GlitterGary - Member
A gun rack?

but does she own a gun let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack. What is she going to do with a gun rack?

What about a nice Cleaveland Steamer?

I'd just take her for dinner.

rabbit?

butt plug?

Arabian goggles?

Something that shows you've been listening.

(Don't get a card if you can't remember what her name is)

jumbo box of condoms and 12 cans of monster energy?

a goat for africa?
just print the page from the oxfam brochure.
don't actually pay oxfam, the bird will never find out and then go and spend the money you've saved on yourself at LBS
happy dayz

Is this bird special?

(Christmas is a rubbish time cos you can't hang your washing out)

An iron?

bake her a cake (providing you can bake and its her birthday).

Lass I'd been seeing for a short while before my birthday made me a cake. I thought it was an ace present.

@ famer giles

coffee meet screen, coffee meet keyboard! 😆

family heirloom.. something with tonnes of sentiment.. your great grannies eternity ring or something.. make a HUGE ceromony about it too.. she'll LOVE it

How about a garage door repair kit?

thekingisdead +1, although I'd go for biscuits and stick them in a gift box.

edit: though unless it's her birthday I don't know why you're buying her anything anyhow.

Take her out for a meal.
Buy her something that she's mentioned she likes.. like a cd of a band she's mentioned liking. Just a little token gift, but something that clearly shows you've been listening to her this last 10 days.

Your VD clinic test results?

Get her a card and take her out to dinner. Simples!

The first couple of posts on this thread has restored my faith in STW.

You've known her for ten days and she well into you....

The very fact you're showing interest in her also should be a great enough gift.

There shouldn't be any need to give a present if you let her know in words, that you are glad to of had the chance to meet her and look forward to getting to know her further.

If she expects a material gift, she's not into you, but into your wallet.

To buy her a gift of a slightly higher value than a set of brake pads now may send her signals that you like to buy things for her and she may expect it in the future, you'll be setting a bench mark in expected kindness.
Where as words can mean more, not be chucked in a cupboard and be appreciated time and time again.

A small gift could however be a good gesture so perhaps a packet of tic tacs.

Please feel free to not follow my advice, i've 20 yrs experience in failed relationships.

Oh! and don't call her a bird, unless of course she likes being called one.
If she does get her a cheap gift.

How about a joint present www.agentprovocateur.com

10 days? Flowers. Maybe chocs.

You call her a "bird"?
Hope you spend way too much on her and then she dumps you.
It's what you deserve.

You call her a "bird"?

'Chick' is the PC term i believe

Ooh, get you guido!! 😉

20 Bensons

"chick" eh?
So I should stop using "Bint" to describe women? Righto.

Dirty weekend away obviously.

FCOL get a grip man. 😯

Run.

Quickly.

Now.

Your last rolo?

easy, simply show her this forum thread in its full, uncensored glory and explain that these are "your people" 8)

Treat 'em mean to keep 'em keen....

Nah I'm a softy - get those 'ribbed for her pleasure' thingies.

ribbed for her pleasure. EEeeeeeewwwwww...

What's FCOL?
Yes, I've been told that bint is regarded as offensive (I fail to see how, but common sense has no place in such discussions).

And as for a present, how about some lube and a cushion to sit on for the next few days?

Castrol GTX
AA Road Atlas
Durex Ribbed (remember to turn them inside out before use)

'What's FCOL?'

for crying out loud.

And how many of you guys are single??!!

tell you what, i'm picking up some great tips in here.

let her be the man for the night...

You mean come after 15 seconds, wipe her flange on the curtains and then fall asleep?

Am I right laydeeez?

Errr...sorry about that, I was just channeling Jenny Eclair.

Burn her a mix CD and get her a big bar of galaxy. I can't stress how important is it to print an awesome cover.

Spend the money on some nice new folding allen keys.

bravehotel9er - I despair ...

No present, take for a meal and maybe you get something in return... sex

Guys - you need to learn how to 'woo'.

More despair tonight, can it get any worse?

Guys - you need to learn how to 'woo'.

Is that anything to do with the 'Wu-Tang Clan'?

A can opener.

Jesus, two pages and no one has asked the key questions, is she fit and does she / will she shag?

This then dictates the level of present expenditure.

A strap on and some handcuffs

If you don't know what she's into then a night out on you is a safe bet.
Your treating her for her B Day and getting a night out for yourself as well.

Everyones a winner

This thread is useless, etc.

has nobody suggested a 'pearl necklace' yet ? this forum is really letting the standards slip.

Don't worry Callous it was on the last page. Posted nicely between a Bible and a cleaveland Steamer.... Standards upheld 😉

[i]has nobody suggested a 'pearl necklace' yet ? this forum is really letting the standards slip.[/i]

Yes, 20 hours ago. About the 25th post.

When you've decided, don't forget to tell her how much thought you put into the decision.
"I asked on the net what to get a bird." She'll be yours forever.

I assumed that as he'd said she was 'well into him' they'd already got to pegging and these gifts probably weren't needed!
