It’s that time of the year again when all those who are blessed with the gift of love run around looking for gifts that will be the ultimate romantic gesture! With this period, comes a lot of pressure as well, especially for those whose love is still new. When you don’t know you are loved – one well just yet, figuring out what kind of gift would melt their heart is a mammoth task. You are also often faced with the dilemma of striking a balance between impressing them with your elegant taste or appealing to their emotions with a very thoughtful gift.
Even for those couples who have been together, the struggle is still the same. Sometimes you have the perfect Valentine’s Day gift planned, and sometimes you are totally blank; and guess what, you can’t read their mind. But don’t get frustrated, this article has some few pointers to help you when selecting the perfect valentine’s gift for him. Read on.
Don’t buy something he has too much of already
A gift has to be useful so try to put some thought into it. Don’t buy a man something that he already has and does not really need another one; what would be the point really? Remember the saying ‘less is more’? It is true, the more of something we have, the less valuable it becomes. What is the point of buying him a pair of socks when he has several other pairs? Or a wallet he doesn’t need because he has another one still in good condition? When giving gifts to your man, or anyone really, it’s very important to make a sentimental impact on them. Otherwise, it will just be the same as buying some grocery item for them, it won’t be special.
Do buy a ‘masculine’ gift.
In this 21st century, there sure has been a lot of backlash on gender stereotyping. The whole pink for girls and blue for boys notion seems to be slowly becoming a thing of the past. But even, be that as it may, it’s still true that most men will appreciate gifts that ‘resonate’ with their gender or roles. Unless you are particularly aware that they like the item, don’t buy your man a ‘feminine’ gift. He may accept it, but he won’t view it as special. So instead of getting him a box of heart-shaped cakes and cupcakes. You can go with his favourite hobby, cartoon character, or profession for the cake’s design. And you will find a variety of options from stores offering online cake delivery in Delhi. Does his shaving set looks like it has seen a lot of better days? You can surprise him with new grooming set on this special day. There are quite a lot of masculine gifts you can give the love of your life on Valentine’s day, but the best thing is to have the gifts customised to suit the romantic occasion with a name, photo, and message.
Do prioritise value over price.
Buying the most perfect gift for your man is not just about spending a lot. It’s really not a good idea to spend a lot of money buying a gift for a man whom you just started dating. Stick to something simple yet valuable. Don’t go all out and get him a MacBook or the latest smartphone. You might actually scare him off. Most men feel good about themselves when they are able to provide for their woman. Making a guy see that you can spend so much, especially if it’s more than he can afford, can make him feel he is in over his head.
Don’t go for run-of-the-mill gift ideas.
Yes, I said to keep it simple but don’t go for too simple. Put some thought into it! You can’t just buy a wallet or cologne or a shirt because that’s what the gift shop had on special for Valentine’s gifts for him, come on! He can tell you didn’t put any thought into it. Get him something he really needs or find value in.
Now that you know these pointers, it should help you to select a good gift. There are many online stores for Valentine’s gifts you can peruse through to get the perfect gift in the comfort of your home.
