Odds are, that dog will be a puppy of divorce. Similar to the tickets, unless you have been together for ages and have talked about getting a pet, just don’t. If you’ve only been together 4 months, don’t buy tickets for next September… You don’t want to spook him. Also, as a rule of thumb, never plan things further in advance than the length of the relationship. He probably won’t enjoy going to the ballet or opera. Make sure it's something he actually wants to go to (and not just that he says he wants to because he loves you). Whatever you think is a nice, pretty smell, he probably doesn’t. Men like to smell how they like to smell. Unless he has none and has specifically asked for some, stay away. We’re super picky when it comes to this stuff too, so unless we’ve been harping on about how we need a new pair of boots or some new pads, just let us pick them ourselves. Sporting GoodsĪlong the same lines as socks & undies, guys can buy sporting goods for themselves. If you’re buying them for him then it might feel like you’re his mum. Don’t get me wrong he probably needs new socks and underwear, but he’s a big boy now and should be able to buy them for himself. Unless it’s some cool funky socks or undies with Batman on them, don’t bother. As handy and useful as that new slow cooker is, steer clear of the kitchen. We have our toaster and microwave and that’s pretty much all we need. We love our man cave but we don’t need to ‘pretty’ it up with a trendy piece of art or a cool plant. Men don’t decorate, it's just that simple. But that’s probably where we draw the line. A little bit of matching is fine, like when his tie subtly matches your dress or those gimmicky matching Christmas jumpers that are funny once a year. Most dapper guys would love to find some new clothes under the tree, but matching outfits? Please no. I know we already said clothes but this one needed its own entry. If you think you know our style and find something we’ll absolutely love, then by all means buy it! But maybe keep the receipt just in case. But in the end we like to pick our own clothes (and make sure they fit). We value your opinion and if we’re in the market for a new shirt, we’ll definitely run it by you. Specifically clothes that you think will look good on him. Just play it safe and get him a JB Hi-Fi gift card. Homemade gifts can be hit or miss, but more often than not they’re a miss… He will probably get one or two uses out of it then it will just take up space somewhere in his wardrobe. Homemade GiftsĪs thoughtful and cute as your homemade masterpiece is, odds are he’s not going to appreciate it as much as you’d hope (This includes those handwritten coupons good for ‘one free back massage’). They’re going to pretend to love it-they’ll even wear it once or twice to make you happy-but secretly, they’re not a fan. Ok, that statistic was made up but its probably pretty close. 86% of men said they would not wear jewellery that their girlfriend got them for Christmas. Here is what not to get your boyfriend(s) for Christmas: Jewelleryĭiamonds may be a girl’s best friend but they most definitely are not a guy’s. If you’ve been together for 5 years then you probably know what he likes so disregard this, but if you’re still new to the relationship game then we’re here to save you some trouble. Men are simple and it doesn’t take much to keep us happy, but there are a few things you should avoid. Christmas can be an awkward time for new couples and the question of what to get your significant other can be a tricky one. Alrighty girls and boys its time for a dose of honesty-your boyfriend probably isn’t going to tell you any of this, but he will sure be thinking it.
