I cant figure women out.

But lay it on me, not using my fancy gifts is another cold shoulder ain't it.
(then again, perhapse if I had a cell phone id be more popular)
Jeeeeezuuus guys!

if you really really really cared you would get a pair of ...distressors..... !

The truth is some chicks are just not that into wearing jewelry, and the ones that are, spend ages picking pieces for themselves...its a serious business, jewelry, as serious as choosing shoes and bags. Personlly, I hardly every wear necklaces (look ugly on me ) or bracelets (annoy the crap out of me) but love huge dangling earrings and glittery hairpins.
And most women will favor either silver or gold, all depends on coloring. As I have fair slightly olive skin, grey eyes and black hair, gold looks crap on me.

While we are on the topic of gifts for the ladies, don't buy perfume unless you know her specific scent, and then only get related product, ie hand cream, body cream, soap etc.

Lingerie = bad bad bad. Giving lingerie says all you are interested in is sex, and have been visualising her naked - which you would have been- its not romantic. Women like at least the illusion of romance, and to entertain the idea that you are interested in her mind as well.....the gift of lingerie says neither of these things.

The idea is to find out what she is interested in and buy gifts appropriate to the stage of the relationship. If you are not in an actual relationship but activley pursuing, jewelry is too personal and too forward.

It implies an intimacy not yet established, and the wearing or not wearing of the gift can be awkward for the recipent. If she wears it it could imply she is interested, or, she might be wearing it out of politeness. If she doesnt wear it, it may be that she hates it or it doesnt suit her, or, she doesnt want the giver to think she is interested. Or she is interested but doesnt want to show it just yet. Or she doesnt know yet if she is interested.Or not.

A good gift at this stage, would be a book about a subject she is interested in, shows you have actually been listening to her at some stage ( and not just staring at her cleavage or legs). Or a CD of music you have discussed. Or somthing inexpensive that relates to a hobby. Thoughtful but not too personal is the idea. If completly at loss, a plant is acceptable.
