As a now-married woman, gifting for my husband has not become any easier. Yet I still remember when we first started dating, I didn’t want to get him something that came off “desperate” or “too much, too soon”, you know? If this sounds like you – you’re in a new relationship and in need of gift ideas that coincide – hopefully this post makes it a little easier for you.
I think the main takeaway is to try not to overthink it – a gift is a good gift as any because you put thought into it. And this is something I’ve been drilling into my head year after year – over 10 years of gift-giving later.
Now, there’s no real rhyme or reason to this list – you may want to know a little bit about the person for these gifts to make sense, or you can take a gamble. What I factored into this list is the message – a message that says, “I like you – enough to give you a thoughtful gift – without coming across as moving too fast“.
In a new relationship? Here are 75+ gift ideas that aren’t *too much*
