1. A gift doesn't have to be expensive

If this is not a special occasion, for example, 10 years from the date of your wedding or another important date, then it is better to avoid expensive gifts for men. Even if you have the financial ability to donate them. That is, of course, you can make expensive gifts for a man, but on condition that his gifts are still more dear to you. It shouldn't be otherwise. And there are several reasons for this:

- Firstly, making an expensive gift to a loved one because he cannot afford it yet (and you have money for it), instead of bringing joy, you beat the man on his self-esteem.

- Secondly, making expensive gifts, you are more involved in the role of "mommy", and the man in the role of "boy", respectively, this destroys your relationship.

- Thirdly, when making expensive gifts to a man, you are trying to be on an equal footing with him, and this is fundamentally wrong. By doing so, you deprive yourself of the opportunity to receive further care and support from this man. A man will never care about an “equal”. He will take care of the one who demonstrates to him his need for a strong and reliable companion, gives him the opportunity to feel like a "hero" next to her.

2. Don't give money

Although today it is customary to repeat that money is the best gift, believe me, this is definitely not the best gift for a loved one. This approach will rather show him that you were too lazy to spend time and effort looking for a good gift and just decided to "pay off". Even if the man himself tells you that money is more important to him now than gifts. Of course, if he wants an expensive gift, then you can financially participate in it. For example, if your man wants a watch worth 20 thousand for his birthday, then you can invest your 5-10 thousand and go together to buy him a watch. But just not just "add" to the clock, namely to arrange an action - to go together to search, try on, choose, so that this is accompanied by your active participation and maximum involvement.

3. A gift is emotions ...

... Not boots, socks or shaving foam. Try to make even a small gift on an insignificant occasion for your man some kind of emotion, because you know from yourself, dear girls, how important it is. Remember how many parents in childhood gave winter boots for the new year, and how you felt at the same time. By the way, in many men, the most emotions are caused by some very necessary and useful things, and not "something pretty", as in women. Remember this.

4. It is better to discuss a gift with a man

Oddly enough, this is the best way to "guess" what will really be a necessary and valuable gift for your man. Of course, you always want to surprise and come up with a stunning surprise, but the risk of missing is still very high. Therefore, it is better to throw out of your head all doubts like "a gift that is known in advance, less desirable" and discuss this issue with your beloved. Believe me, he will appreciate your efforts to make him a really good gift. Of course, men to the question "What do you want for your birthday?" often answer “I don’t know”, because many of them want something global, not thinking about their everyday desires at all. In this case, you still have to turn on your observation and remember what desires your loved one has accidentally mentioned over the past few months. Combine these observations with the knowledge gift guides of his values, and you will definitely have several options in your head that you can discuss with your precious!
