Your first Christmas dating someone new automatically presents you with a problem: what do you get them for Christmas? How much do you spend? Will they be expecting anything? Will they like it?
Luckily I have one tip that will guarantee you present buying success: get them something you love.
Yup. Not something they love (because, if you've just started dating I bet you're not sure what that is yet). Instead chose to share with them something you think is great.
It could be a book that always makes you smile, a trip to your favourite place, or a course where they learn how to keep up with you on the dance floor.
The important thing here isn't to hit the nail on the head of choosing something they like but to show them that your life is one that's worth sharing, and that you'd like to do this with them.
