Other romance-killing practical gifts to be
avoided, besides took boxes, include weed whackers, post hole diggers,
radial tires, bathroom scales and large bags of cement. If you must
give a practical gift, make it one with romantic uses, like a blender,
which can be used to make intoxicating drinks for romantic occasions.
When you think about it, a blender is not too romantic either and
neither are most other household items like vacuums, stoves,
refrigerators and sewing machines. Rule of Thumb: If it is practical,
she will see it as work and not too romantic and you definitely get no
points for originality.
Gifts with high romantic content: books of poetry,
anything lacy, anything scented, jewelry (doesn’t have to be
heart-shaped), tickets for a weekend getaway, lingerie (be careful
here—ask the nice saleslady for advice). Flowers are good, but don’t
forget to remove the price sticker from the wrapper, especially if you
went cheap and shame on you for doing so.
Men have a strange relationship with flowers. I
think we equate them with weeds or something that needs to be mowed,
pulled or trimmed. Women tend to like flowers. Go with their instinct!
