you should get a modest but nice gift. $500 is way inappropriate and you're setting the bar too high at such an early stage.

wow, setting the bar too high in the beginning will fuck yourself over

it doesn't have to be expensive, just get something with meaning, or can be developed into a special meaning for you two

Remember you cant buy love, the rule of thumb is
50$ for every six months, so 100$ for one year of a relationship and so on
if you spend that much money early on it can come to bite you in the ass later down the road.

You have a good night at the casino last night?



Unless your hella rich and 500$ ain't no thang to you.... your going about things the wrong way. Something with meaning is better than something with a high price tag and IF the girl cares about the price tag more than the meaning...... well I saying she's a gold digger .... but you get my drift.

Berz out.

if someone i just started dating got me a $500 gift right away, i'd actually feel a bit uncomfortable. 1 for him seeming like he's trying WAY too hard, and 2...there is no 2.

Ok...so my only comment to make is that lets put into perspective that this guys is a multie millionaire. Like in the 100 -200 million dollar range. Clearly, for the girls he has dated in the past etc etc, $500 dollar gift is pennies. Its like Brad Pitt probably bought Jolie a $15 000 dollar bracelet after 3 months.

If that's the case, then I'll take back what I said and actually say something useful.


I will return to my original statement:

A rich man does not need to tell you he is rich.

Even if you have a trillion dollars and your floor mat is made of $100 bills weaved together, she does not need to know that.
Keep in mind, that when GIVEN a choice, many women prefer to love a lifestyle rather than love a man. No disrespect to women, but it's simply how humans beings are.
This means, if you can provide her with a new lifestyle where $500 gifts and expensive cars and jewelry are showered upon her every day, then she will fall in love with that lifestyle. Or, more blatantly put: she'll fall in love with your money.
Your relationship will be based on the monetary output you two (or most likely only you) put towards her--not the affection value like it's supposed to be.

Having said that though, unless you're both on the same level of playing field (i.e. she's equally, if not more rich than you are), I fail to see how this can EVER work out.

Overspending, whether it be big or small to the spender, always sets bad precedents.

sooo. you're trying to get her attention back with a $500 gift since she won't answer your texts?

Someone post up that Chris Rock video for him about how " Girls can't go backwards in lifestyle" .

You trying to fuck it up for the other guys in line, right?
But you just might be screwing yourself over. XD

Just cause she got you some canucks tickets doesnt mean you have to return the favor with a 500$ gift =/
I mean, spending money on several occasions that adds up to 500$ is one thing, and buying a 500$ gift is another completely different thing. If you want to show that you're thankful and appreciative, take her out to a fancy restaurant for dinner or something. Have a nice evening, maybe flowers. But no effing way should you get her a 500$ gift if you just started seeing her.
You're gonna regret it if things dont work out, trust me. If youre baller rich and money aint an issue, you're not gonna regret the cash, you're gonna regret the fact that you acted like a complete tool.

gir's holy facepalm pic was epic!

seriously though. if you're going to get a gift, find out what she likes or is into or wants, then get it. don't just throw money away for the sake of spending it. i hate it when ppl get gifts for the sake of spending $xxx amount.

put some thought/sincerity in to a gift that she likes. we are not her so we have no clue what she likes. I remember buying a $10 book as a gift and she liked it b/c i remembered a few months back that she briefly made a comment about it and it impressed her. if she's only impressed about the price tag of a gift, she's more trouble than it's worth.
