Money or how much ones spends shouldn't be a factor, does that gift represent the person yout giving it to, does it remind you of them or vise versa. is it something they needed or wanted or could they use it to make life easier or more comfortable, so many factors come into play when choosing a gift but money/how much you spend shouldn't be one of them
Only correct answer isn't up there. It's not about the amount spent. It's about the gift showing you pay attention and know them well enough to make them smile. If it's about what's spent, you're on track to be a terribly shallow person and a bad girlfriend.
Only if they earn equally or somewhat equally.
My ex had a full time job while I was a broke student working like 8 hours a week making coffee.
If he bought me a present for €50 I could never make it up to him because I hardly made any money.
no i think neither really should to me sexual relationships are about contributin to the relationship the best way to get wealthy is to simultaneosuly save and make as much as possible and as much as possible spend money on bills and not on each other
just get a present... that's all. small or big. doesn't matter. home made or store bought. doesn't matter. just give something to show appreciation. please.
If a personal only knows material love, no idea how that goes, but maybe sure. I don't think it's good to complain on who spent how much, it's a gift. GIFT! FREE! LOVE.
That's going to be a unique thing between most couples, there's not going to be a one size fits all answer.
The only equality I want when it comes to gifting is that it should be done with as much affection as my gift. Same affection doesn't mean that it costs as much in terms of money.
I love showering my man with gifts. I spoil him lots on his birthday and at Christmas.
Anyone who asks you for expensive gifts constantly is probably trying to use you.
I think individuals should spend as much money on presents as they want.
Male or female.
I don't see anyone as under obligation to buy gifts. I do buy my wife gifts, but I never expect the same in return mostly because I'm near impossible to buy for.
I did vote the equality one though cause while granted, I don't expect a return, someone buying you a gift should make you want to do something nice in return.
I stopped getting gifts because she never did and started asking for more expensive things
While making more than me at the time. This seems to be a little to common
update response:
it’s not just the gift giving its reciprocation over all. that doesn’t have to be monetary value and it needs to go both ways.
So no you don’t need to spend the same amount of money. Yes you do need to show you value his time and effort with equal or greater actions.
In the interest of equality, that would be a great idea.
I'm going to say no but thsts because what makes men happy is usually not as expensive as what makes women happy. Women might want an expensive dress or peice of jewelry but menc2ill be equally happy with a 60$ video game.
If a Woman loves me it's not about the money but I do not want some fake shit either so I treat her like she treat me Women think they should get everything anyways why is that? Huh thats what I really wanna know.
God Bless
It’s never about price. It should always be about thought and meaning.
Depends how much each person makes.
the whole gender equality thing is just trolling
No. Is that really love if you're going to look at the price tag?
So men should spend more money on women and this is unconditional love?
What you said refers to women who demands expensive presents from their men.
I'm saying that we shouldn't look at the pricetag, it's a present. We shouldn't take it for granted and not complain if it's cheap.
A gift isn't valued by its monetary cost. In fact, it shouldn't really be part of the equation. It seems like you don't know this yet?
A man get judged when he doesn't buy expensive gifts. This is why I asked this question
That's your opinion, and maybe your experience in your culture. It's not true of mine. And I would never involve myself with a woman who judges my gifts by their monetary value. If her parents are stuck in that realm, that's their problem, as long their daughter is not and stands up to them.
