What kind of gifts do you prefer to get from a partner?

[Anonymous]

Do you prefer it when they spend more money on something nicer, an experience like a vacation or even a night out, something sentimental like pictures of flowers or something different all together?

Luxury

Sentimental

Experiences

Something else

Luxury because I know my partner can financially afford it (whereas many of our parents/friends can't).

I think if a life partner has the means to splurge (without it detracting from other joint financial goals/responsibilities) then it's a good thing - it means they want to surround you with quality, and that they are willing to invest in your happiness (even if it's not practical).

A $80 video game he'll get halfway through and not finish means just as much as a $80 make up set I'll do the same with. Its recognizing that it makes the other person happy and being willing to financially provide it for no other reason than you want to add a little joy into their life.

I'm an avid thrifter in my day to day, I love the feeling of "getting a deal or giving something a second life with a little elbow grease." It is also nice for someone to buy you the new thing you wouldn't buy yourself once or twice a year. We all need more "treat yourself king/queen 👑" energy in our lives.

Experiences. My friends and family always tell me that I'm so hard to get gifts for because I never want something but somehow they don't understand that I really mean what I say and just going out for dinner would be great.

My partner got me flowers and went out to a fancy restaurant with me and a blanket with our picture on it. It was the best birthday gift!

When I buy people gifts, My goal isn’t simply to get them a gift that they like, My goal is to get them a gift that can show how much I understand them as a person By choosing a gift that isn’t an obvious choice, Specifically, a gift that only makes sense if you really pay attention to their more obscure interest and personality traits that they don’t usually talk about.

Just as an example of something, a woman could get me that would earn my absolute respect, if few pipes and some cutting tools would be a good choice.

There are so many things that you can do with just a few pipes and some cutting tools, no most people might not think that’s a good gift, but that’s exactly what makes it such an amazing gift, it shows that they actually put in the effort to try to understand how my mind works at least on some level was able to put themselves into my perspective, and that alone is so much more valuable in a partner than anything else.

Oh , none for me. I can’t stand getting surprise gifts, they make me feel awkward , emotional and a little sick.. like my reaction is under intense scrutiny and it’s impossible to pass that test.


I’d much rather , if anything , something nice be done for me or some sincere spoken or written words to help me understand what I mean to her.

Gifts are all about showing some love and appreciation, right? 🥰 Whether it's a fancy treat or a trip to paradise, the thought behind it counts with heart. For me, experiences take the cake! A fun day out or a cozy family trip makes for cherished memories that'll last way longer than a shiny watch. Sentimental gifts, like cute family pics, also make my heart skip a beat! So, sprinkle a little love, and you've nailed it! 💖

I prefer not to get luxury items those kinds of items I feel like I need earn those kinds of things for myself. I don't feel like I deserve them when I get them as gifts and that makes me feel very uncomfortable. So I prefer not to get those kinds of things as gifts.

I much prefer practical things, socks, boxers, pocket knifes, tools, snacks, money, stuff like that.

I'm more about utility. Buy me something you know I'll run empty of or I've been forgetting at the store and Ill be super grateful.

Or if you buy me something I didn't know I needed, Ill be even happier.

Just something thoughtful. I don’t need a grand gesture or expensive thing. I’d rather have consistent courtesy and a thoughtful man who understands that. The daily gift….

Music. It is a challenge because we both have huge music collections already. Needless to say, we spend a lot of time and money on discogs.

[molonski2]

I do not want them spending unnecessary money , sentimental and thoughtful is best , the alternative is not good.

[AviatorTom]

I prefer experiences that we do together. Going to dinner or a movie, taking a trip together, or just spending some intimate time together.

My wife gets me the things I window shop because I have a hard time spending money on myself.
