How much money should you spend for a friend’s milestone birthday?

[HappyWoman34]

I was thinking a few hundred dollars, but I have no clue. Is that too much?

[LiamS95]

It depends on how close the friend is and what you truly can afford. I would think here u could get something special for between $100 & $200. But not sure about where you live.

[HappyWoman34]

I’m Australian. Probably similar stuff. What sorts of stuff would you suggest?

[LiamS95]

Well you would know yhe persons preferences. Likes and dislikes so start there. What would be a unique gift that he or she would greatly appreciate?

[EmmaMary]

@happywoman34

Australian? Why does your profile show United States?

[HappyWoman34]

@EmmaMary I don’t know. However, I’ll fix it later.

[EmmaMary]

@happywoman34

No worries... It just confused me that's all. x

[Shy_Steve]

I think it's best if you spend about the same amount as her other Friends and Family would.

[HappyWoman34]

She is fairly mysterious, a beautiful, articulate and bright woman with a sad story, which I mustn’t discuss on here. She likes expensive things. Really into healthy living. What would be about right, a pink sapphire ring, or something cute, like a musical carousel?

[HappyWoman34]

She’s not my girlfriend. As you know, I prefer men. However, she’s a new friend.

[Shy_Steve]

I'm Guessing the Ring would be more expensive so I would Suggest the musical carousel.

[HappyWoman34]

Yeah, you’re probably right. She’s actually hit on me before, she’s bisexual and had a crush, so maybe I’m being naive to think it wouldn’t give her the wrong idea?

[HappyWoman34]

I actually forgot about that. It just wasn’t important and I couldn’t share it with anyone.

[Kit_Kat88]

I think if you like her in that manner then you can get her pretty necklace or bracelet. Don’t spend so much on a new friend. Maybe around $50 the most

[HappyWoman34]

@Kit_Kat88 thank you. That’s really helpful. I’m a bit clueless about such things.

[Kit_Kat88]

Do you like her back?

[HappyWoman34]

@Kit_Kat88 not as more than friends, no. She’s perfect (if I were gay). But I much prefer men.

[HappyWoman34]

She’s so beautiful, classy, intelligent and sweet. In the words of Bridget Jones (from Bridget Jones’s Diary, The Edge of Reason to the younger woman who liked her ‘thank you very much. That was lovely; but I’m afraid it’s still men in general for me. But if I do ever decide to you know, bat for the other side, there’s no one else. Only you.’

[Kit_Kat88]

Maybe if you’re curious you can sleep with her. You don’t have to date

[HappyWoman34]

@Kit_Kat88 I’m not really curious. I know I significantly prefer men, so it wouldn’t last and I’d lose a good friend.

[Kit_Kat88]

Yes I did too before getting feelings whiledenying my sexuality. Well if you have no desire for her than you’re straight and that won’t change

[Kit_Kat88]

I still prefer men but women are so beautiful and it’s nice getting intimate with them.

[HappyWoman34]

@Kit_Kat88 I don’t know if I’m entirely straight, but I mostly am. I get crushes on women, but 90 percent of my sexual desires are for men.

[HappyWoman34]

I’m not trying to deny my sexuality; I just prefer men by a lot and I don’t want to upset women by leading them on. 😊

[Kit_Kat88]

I think if you want to make it clear to her that you want to try getting physical but you’re not interested in more. That is if you have a crush on her. I remember denying a girl’s advances but was like I’m attracted to her so might as well give it a shot

[Kit_Kat88]

I don’t want a relationship with a woman probably because I like to get married and have kids with a man

[HappyWoman34]

@Kit_Kat88 I’m not sure I want kids, for good reasons and you’re not wrong that I find her a bit attractive. I find men more sexually appealing. I like the way they think, the way they look, the way they talk and their bits better than women’s bits. I see myself marrying a man. If I ever marry. Too. Also, she wanted to be my girlfriend.

[Kit_Kat88]

Well if you’ll like to explore physically I suggest go for it but tell her that’sall you want. I prefer the masculine look and acting. In bed too unless they’re selfish. Sexuality can be super fluid and you can sexually desire a girl but not romantically. Do what you feel is right and what you want. As for her present you should get her necklace and put it on her.

[HappyWoman34]

@Kit_Kat88 thanks for all of your help and support. You’re right that I’m bisexual, most likely. I still greatly prefer men. I’m attracted to both, but always knew I liked men. Women, I started noticing to a far lesser extent when I turned 19.

[HappyWoman34]

For women, I like feminine women. Men, I like masculine.

It depends on your income and where you're living, because in some places in the world, an employee's monthly income do not exceed 50$ and in some other countries the minimal monthly income for a regular employee is 3000$ so in the end it depends on your budget and how much you're willing to spend on your friend's gift!

[HappyWoman34]

I am willing to spend $100.

[TonyMetal___86]

😊👍🏻

[TonyMetal___86]

Australian or American dollars?

[HappyWoman34]

Australian

[TonyMetal___86]

Okay miss kat 😊

[handsomelad70]

Which is how much in loonies? (Canadian coin currency.)

[EmmaMary]

Only spend within your means... And remember it's not the giving but receiving, no matter how big or small or how expensive.

[handsomelad70]

It should match their milestone unless it's seventy, like my boy Jamie Logsdon's on Mar.14,2026. I'll probably lay fifty on him, though I MAY get really generous and give him seventy, as we've been boys since 1980.

[LiZiqiLiZiqi]

I would give her a gift she liked, about a few thousand dollars.

[LiamJHayden]

It depends upon how close you are and your budget. For my best friend's 30th I spent a lot on her party. For a random "friend" really an acquaintance I'd keep it under $200.

[SotiCoto]

None. Or rather however much or little you want... because presumably you're doing it because you want to and not out of some obligation.

[Yannae]

As much as you can comfortably afford and as much as you want to.

[DrPepper12]

Depends on where you live, closeness of friend, when party is, etc

[Dongie]

It depends on your budget then whether or not you are frugal.

[BA4NkdAdv]

It's not how much but the value of it being received.

[Kit_Kat88]

You’re loaded haha. I was thinking $100

[Billlewis]

I'm very sincere and genuine. My greatest dream is to spoil a beautiful woman rotten, with absolutely no expectations of receiving anything in return, and you'll always enjoy unlimited freedom to date, bed and interact with any guy with whom you choose to do so. All I want is to kiss your ass and worship the ground you walk on.

[jahaims]

Zero. They are an adult

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

About $5 if they are lucky.

[handsomelad70]

FIVE BUCKS?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

@handsomelad70: Yes.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Bags of ships.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

*chips

[Anonymous]

$900

[HappyWoman34]

That’s more than I could possibly afford for one friend.

[Opinion Owner]

Joke

[HappyWoman34]

Oh lol
