3 gifts that no woman wants to receive (+ what to actually get her)
I honestly don't know why we have the reputation of being difficult with gifts.
If you listened a little to what we say every day, you would see how many hints we give you about what we want. In any case, here are the three gifts you should definitely not get your girlfriend this Christmas, but also the ones that every woman would go crazy if she received:
1. Cookware
Some may consider it obvious, but for many (unfortunately) it is not. Her favorite non-stick frying pan may have broken or she may be complaining that the coffee mugs are worn out and she wants to throw them away, but that doesn't mean these are the gifts she wants to find under the tree. These are purchases you can make together at any other time of the year.
What to get her:
Choose to get her something that will be exclusively for her, something she might not actually need so much that she would spend money on it herself, but would love to have.
- Cosmetics. Buy her cosmetics. Go to the bathroom and see what facial cleanser and what cream she uses and buy her new packages to have in stock or buy her her favorite perfume or an expensive red lipstick that she would never spend money on herself. If you have no idea what she might want, give her a gift of lip gloss, eyeshadow palette or (even better) a Skroutz gift card.
2. Cleaning Supplies
She might complain about the dust in the house, grumble that the old device is sticking or not working well, but no, she doesn't want a vacuum cleaner either - we promise!
What to get her: Instead of helping her clean the house, help her clear her mind a bit… Give her the gift of a spa visit, a massage, or even a full day of beauty pampering, aka a hair salon appointment for styling, manicure, pedicure, lash lift, etc. That's how we women relax, what can we do?!
3. Necklaces with Hearts
For some reason, one of the favorite gifts from men is hearts on necklaces, rings, bracelets, etc. I don't know who (liar!) told them that this is something that excites us, but, I hate to break it to you, we don't like this kind of jewelry at all.
What to get her: If you want to show her your love, book a two-day trip somewhere romantic or organize a date night with dinner at a restaurant with a view and a movie or theater. If you still want to give her a piece of jewelry, opt for more classic, minimal, and timeless pieces, such as neck chains, hoop earrings, or cuff bracelets.
