You can make a cozy sitting arrangement in your living room and watch a movie or some fun things together. Or you can have a camp in your backyard.

You can write a love letter or a note expressing your feelings about her and leave it in her house on her birthday. She will be surprised and happy to find it.

Question

Will she be upset if I don't get her anything because I'm not sure how serious I want this to get?

Community Answer

Yes, she probably won't be happy. Everyone likes to be remembered. So just keep it light and non-romantic! Buy her a good book.

Question

Is a silver necklace with a heart-shaped pendant too much? We've only been together 3 months but we are beginning to discuss marriage.

Community Answer

Every relationship is different. After 3 months you should have a good idea of what she will like, and if she is talking with you openly about marriage and you guys say "I love you," then a heart pendant is a lovely gift.

Question

Is perfume a good idea?

Community Answer

Perfume can be a little risky because some women and girls don't wear it or like it and, when they do, they often have a particular scent. If you know what her scent is or can find out, it's a good choice. But don't try to guess.

Question

Can I buy my girlfriend body spray?

Community Answer

Yes, you can. I would just tell her that you thought the spray smelled really nice and that she might like it too.
