How many of you have given a gift to your crush? What was it? And how was their reaction to it?


My personal story went out only till two bars of the best chocolate I could find.......... It got my relationship progress up by many levels and it was a wise choice........... I'm curious to know about all of yours though ;)

I gifted my crush a poem written by yours truly the amateur. And she cried as it made her very emotional. Since it was a poem that was based entirely on her situation in life at that particular point of time. She said she doesn't have words to express how happy she was to have me write something for her. That's about it. :v I depend on my parents for now. I probably won't buy expensive ♥♥♥♥ for anyone even in the next four years of my college life - even if I somehow manage to make a gf, she won't really get much. Will have to satisfy herself with me caring about her and just a few small gifts here and there. She can have expensive ♥♥♥♥ as soon as I land a job. :v Although I don't really get it. Gifts are nice to show appreciation every once in a while. There really shouldn't be a reason for your beloved to expect a gift or her getting a treat every other day - she should love you and not your money, after all.

Anyway, I digress. So yes, as of yet, not a single penny has been spent on her. Except chocolates. Tho those were chocolates she demanded from me on my birthday so they don't count lel.

I mean I give gifts to my boyfriend all the time but I doubt that counts. My freshman year in college I had a bit of a crush on this man, and his birthday was right near the beginning of the school year. I sought him out and gave him a copy of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a book he said he's never read but wanted to read. It never worked because that guy never ended up actually wanting to hang out or anything but I wasn't too bothered - at that point in time I was just looking for a friend group and he ended up not being part of it, no big deal.

I never gave a gift to my crushes. xD I've given plenty of gifts to my current boyfriend, if that counts.

When we were first dating, the first gift I gave him was for Christmas. I didn't know too too much about what type of gifts he liked so I worked off what I did know which was that he loved Pokemon and plushies. So what better gift then a Pokemon plushie? I knew that his favourite Pokemon was a Growlithe so I gave him a Pokemon Time Growlithe plushie.

I'm always nervous about people liking what I give them, even if I KNOW they'll love it so of course I was nervous for Growlithe as well. But he ended up loving him lots c:

I gave my then girlfriend a little message about how I felt about her being a part of my life. Just...a few words about how important she was with me.

She...cried tears of joy. She was just really happy about it. I'm not the gift type, but she was different to me.

For the first time ever I went all out for Valentines day for a girl that I liked but hadn't dated. I got a bear, some candies, a card, and 2 roses which came up to like 70 somethin dollars. She just said she liked it. And then a month later or so we stopped talking.

If I remember correctly, I've given my crush multiple gifts when Christmas came along last year, but he had no idea I had these particular feelings for him until recently. They were given at different times because originally I ordered foreign CDs from online for him, unfortunately they didn't arrive until after the New Year. In feeling bad, I also got him a teddy bear + $50 to satiate him for the time being. And then I wrapped his actual present nicely then went to his house to hand it to him (: It was a nice feeling making someone happy, and I didn't mind spending $150 to do so.

Oh god when I was really young I gave my friend/crush a plastic ring. I honestly don't remember the details, but the couple people who remember never cease to remind me about it. I saw her a lot during high school, and thankfully she never brought it up. Don't actually know if she remembers it.

I'm not much of a gift person, even for my friends, so I've never gone out and bought a gift for a crush or anything.

The only crush I ever went out of my way to do/make something for was my current girlfriend. I offered to send out Christmas cards to my friends/tumblr followers last year and included little sketches in all of them, but for hers I went out of my way and inked/coloured it. It wasn't anything major, but I was very out of practise and it took a lot more of my exam study time than expected so even though it's not like I bought anything, it was a bigger deal than it probably should have been. Hers was the only one I put that much effort into and it was worth it because she loved it (and still has it stuck on her wall). It was a few days after Christmas that we ended up confessing to each other and starting a relationship. (And then after Christmas when I got back home, it turned out she'd included something special just for me in the card she sent, too!)

No.

I was always too nervous to approach any of my crushes in High School.
Therefore I think it would have been pretty impossible for me to give them gifts.

I gave my girlfriend when I was 16 a box of perfume for her Birthday. (she's long gone now) but I had to be persuaded to do so.
I'm not tight with money, or a bad person, I just didn't like her that much.

But that's another story.

Well, it wasn't originally in hopes to getting closer to him for a relationship, but at the time, I was just happy to be able to give him something that he wanted, which in turn made him extremely happy (:

I really love buying people gifts, if I buy you a gift I must really like you!!

I've bought all my exes gifts and someone who was kind of a crush but that was a very strange situation lolol. Whenever I get someone a gift it's usually something they have talked about before or it's something that will be a solution to a problem they have. I just want my gift to be useful to them or have them know that I actually do listen them!!

Lol maybe it's kind of sad but the bests gifts I recieved were from one of my friends the past Christmas. We decided to buy each other gifts and all her gifts to me were all things I had mentioned throughout the year and I couldn't believe she remembered them all! What made me most happy was that it showed she actually pays attention to me and remembers.

Anyway if I ever do find "the one" for me I'd def get them lots of lovely gifts that I think they'll appreciate :))

Eh, not really. I never gave gifts as an attempt on winning people over, cause I find that kind of lame, to be honest. It makes the whole "money buys happiness" ideology realistic, even though it isn't. I prefer to either take them to dinner on me, or just talk and stuff.

I do give flowers, though. Seems like guys don't do that anymore.
he did it, not me.

It makes me feel good to buy people gifts, and see their reactions (: Though I don't expect them to return the favour or anything because than I'd feel bad for having them spend unnecessary money on something that I probably won't like D: My friends normally have a hard time buying gifts for me, but I honestly give them little to no trouble by telling them they can either not get me anything at all, or if they do, they can just get an inexpensive plush.

I do give flowers, though. Seems like guys don't do that anymore.
Am I the only person who actually doesn't like getting flowers of any kind? :c I think that aversion comes from my mom hoarding too many plants at home, and now she plants them around the house (no pun intended).

I would hate to get flowers. They die so quickly and I'm usually not a fan of the smell beyond a whiff here and there. I don't want the inside of my house to smell like outdoors. :( They just seem like a waste of money, since you can't replant bouquets. I suppose getting a potted flower wouldn't be horrible, but it wouldn't really be the same.

I used to hate giving gifts, probably because I never used to have any money.

Now I'm a bit more generous, if I see something I know someone will like I usually get it. I have to stop myself a lot because I buy too much ♥♥♥♥ for other people. But I still don't like giving stuff out on valentine's, christmas, etc. just because I'm not a fan of those ideas.


I've never bought a gift for a crush because no usually it doesn't achieve anything; if they don't like you anyway some crappy chocolates isn't going get you into their pants lmfao. yet another "nice guy" antic.

They do smell nice, but I'm just not a flower person to begin with \: There's just something about them or maybe it's just me being not girly enough XD I'd rather get games or plushes as gifts.

That's true. Back in high school, I would want to buy gifts for my friends for their birthdays, but that wasn't entirely up to me since I would have to borrow money from my mom D: Even now that I do have a generous amount of money in my bank account, I still don't splurge only because it's technically not even my money.
