Would you get a new man a Christmas present?

[ringaling]

It's been 2 1/2 months ..would you get him anything?
Any suggestions?

I would after 2.5 months, yes. Are you seeing him exclusively? How often do you see him?

Only twice a week
We talk and text daily
It is exclusive yes
Sleeping together etc

Of course. But may play it safe with a bottle of his favourite booze or a voucher, or something that you know he will like but isn't too expensive.

Get him some pot noodles

Why wouldn't you? I'd be gutted if an exclusive boyfriend didn't get something.

I would get a card and pop a note in that for Christmas you'll treat him to diner at xxx

I'm more in favour of buying days out to make memories to cherish that items to open, no matter who it is for.

I met my DP beginning of November and for the first christmas I bought him some cashmere socks and a little silly cute thing, no card though. He didn't get me anything. However, we've been together over two years now and he's more than made up for it at Christmas and Bithdays .

I think the socks were a good idea because they were practical but also a bit luxurious so it kind of showed I was thinking about his warmth but respected his style as well

Yes, a token present rather than anything extravagant. I'd buy a present related to something he's mentioned he's interested in. Failing that, a nice bottle of booze you can share, tickets for something you can go to and enjoy together or otherwise something cashmere-I'd go for gloves, but socks also a good idea.

I totally would. But then I've been watching Christmas24 all day

In this situation I suggested a Christmas amnesty, which was agreed. Didn't go well after that, though .

I would but nothing extravagant or overly 'personal' (like underpants or such). Booze is always good as suggested above, or music if you are sure of his taste (but not schmoozy love songs).

Yep I would buy something small, just a token gift.

Really confused as to why you wouldn't buy a regular gift. However by two months we knew were going to marry even though we didn't get engaged until another five months.
So yes buy a decent gift.

Can't suggest anything without knowing anything about him. Generic gender presents are a bit shit IMO. I'm not into bath stuff, candles etc and I'm very fussy with jewellery. "Men's" stuff like grooming kits, cufflinks, whiskey, watches etc would be the kind of gifts DH would have in a drawer somewhere never using them but feeling guilty if he got rid of them because it was given to him (which is partly overly polite and partly hoarderness)
