I hate buying gifts for males


worried

It is damn frustrating to go shopping for a gift for a guy, mainly due to the restrictions i had to face..

Things that i can think of as a present:
1) A tie (Cannot buy unless he is my special one.. cos a tie has always been thought as trying to tie the person to me.. I accidentally bought a tie for a male friend before.. lucky there was no misunderstanding..)

2) A pair of shoes (A bit hard to buy if i dont know the size.. and all shoes looked so damn alike, so why buy?)

3) A shirt (Also got the trouble with the size.. another thing is will he like the flowery pattern or the checkered one? Lots of questions...)

4) Handkerchief (nowadays still got guys carry it ah? Oh ya, i think i saw my classmate using it..)

5) CDs / VCDs (Must know what genre he liked then can buy ah.. and what if he already have it liao..)

6) Books (Same as above, must know him well enough than can buy for him..)

7) T-shirts (not sure whether is considered insincere??)

8) Parker pen (Wau lao, i had already bought 4 of the same Parker pen to give to 4 different ppl due to the lack of ideas for gift.. i seriously dont want to give this again in the near future..)

Nah, so far only can think of these few ideas but almost all can strike off.. I dont mind giving the guy a soft toy or even flowers, if they dont think i am siao can liao... Think next time, i can stick to buying vouchers with a card.. Simple and no need to waste my brain cells..

  • don't worry so much. its the thought that counts, as long as the gifts are not too extreme, it will be okay.
