Whenever Valentines day or Christmas roles around almost 50% of all twitter trends are people panicking about what to get their sweetie-poo as a gift. And most of the time the answer is simple: If you’re a guy-jewelry, flowers, or a nice pair of shoes. If you’re a girl- lingerie. Yes these are generalizations but you get the idea. But what happens when you just started dating the person? You go out, have a nice time together, friend each other on facebook and then BAM, one of you has a birthday coming up. If you’re a girl you can’t just start pulling out the sex kitten shit when you haven’t even kissed the dude yet. And guys you definitely don’t want to drop money on a chick that could turn out to be completely insane.
So for guys, I think you can get away pretty easy with cooking her a homemade dinner. It shows you're romantic without going overboard. And you won’t have to go to some big birthday party where you meet all her friends. We all know how awkward introducing someone you just met is: “Hey guys this is my…uh, friend, Dave…uh, shit don’t know his last name yet.”
But what if you’re a girl? There’s no jewelry equivalent for men other than a blow job or tie clips (which you have to be over 30 before you can start giving this as legitimate gift). The homemade dinner thing could be a possibility, unless you’re like me, in which case the most talented thing I can to in the kitchen is make cereal in high heels. The whole “voucher for a free back rub” is stupid too. It says I’m lazy and cheap but care about you just enough to make a little card. So for guys, I’m gonna say take him to the movies to see something with lots of action and sex. It will almost make up for the fact that he’s not getting any. Almost.
