>implying moths are stupid enough to keep f**king the same moth over and over

Hows this??
infinity bullsh*t to signify commitment ?

And if you want something original, look on etsy.com. Its all handmade and they have really really nice jewelry. I have about 3 pieces that I got on etsy and they are beautiful and totally unique. You can also get a good deal on jewelry with pearls and diamonds since it is hand crafted and from independent jewelry makers.

there are girls who are into etsy stuff and there are girls who aren't. Best to error on the side of caution.

Coming from a female perspective I would do anything after I saw that the jewelry was Tiffany's, this man knows his women.
The blue box, that gorgeous turquoise, robin's egg blue, makes every difference.

what has web turned into

Don't buy jewellery. Ever. There's no need. Unless you have f**ked up horribly, you don't ever consider buying jewellery, because you have nowhere to go. How are you gonna top jewellery? With jewellery? F**k no. Romantic sh*t? IT'S STILL NOT JEWELLERY, A**HOLE.
Plus, 6 months doesn't mean anything. Maybe get her a card or make lunch or something cute. Don't buy her sh*t.
And if you buy a girl jewellery, she gets it in her head she deserves it, because she is a woman, and then she begins to expect.

I spelled jewelry wrong a bunch of times. I'm still right.

Get her an ounce of good weed

I am not a man! ;_;

Dating isn't some f**king tiered system of gifts, it's not like you can't branch out from jewelry, I've gotten expensive diamonds for anniversaries and a t-shirt and a few books for another and a $50 harry potter necklace for another.
You act like once you introduce a woman to a new concept like JEWELLLLRY [sic] then that's all they'll know

F**k, don't spend ~$200. Hell, ~$100 is almost too much in my mind.

Hello, non-shallow female here.
You are a money-grubbing wh**re and a disgrace. You are also most likely fat and single.
Just sayin'.

Haha, this guy is somewhat right.
Here's what I think: get her earrings. They're cheaper and more casual.
Save a necklace for something more serious.
Plus then you can get some Yurmanzzz close to your budget!

Go for an event rather an object. Instead of buying $200 necklace for example, go to a very nice dinner, and find something nice to do. Is she into musicals or operas? BAM night-outing and dinner DONE. Into clubs and drinks? BAM covered.
Doing something with memories is worth a thousand times more than equal amount spent on a small pair of earings.

Yes, I'm sure that you, a girl who has never received a gift other than the newest season of Naruto for your 2 month internet anniversary, would know how to hold a respectable, normal relationship.
Next anniversary, you should ask your WoW boyfriend to get you some new armor instead of something nice like earrings or a bracelet.

OP, you know her better than any of us do.
Get her something she would like. If you've been dating for 6 months and you don't know what she really likes and enjoys in life, you might want to break up now.
Does she like a home-cooked meal? Make her dinner.
Is she a reader? Gamer? Homebody? Get her something that she will find heartfelt (and, ideally, useful).
You don't have to spend money to make a girl happy.

Also, OP must be in middle or high school with his 6month sillyness

Actually, I've never played WoW or watched Naruto.
It's funny that you assume I am a weeaboo because I don't like jewelry or extorting a man with whom I am in a relationship.
Also, you sound like a materialistic c**t. Or a troll. I hope it's the latter, because you are an embarrassment to females everywhere; unfortunately there are so many more who act just like you, though...

Jewelery is a lame gift, usually. It's really hard to pick a piece she'll actually like, though she'll probably still wear it because you gave it to her.
Tiffany's isn't common where I live, and I'm glad about that, seeing as though you bitches make it out like every female drools over this mentioned "blue box". Get a f**king life, it's just the same sh*t but it costs more.
6 months isn't too long, do something fun with her and take her out to dinner. Maybe a small piece of jewelery is ok, but not tiffany's or some other boutiquey sh*t. The infinitive symbol one was cool, but maybe not for a 6 month anniversary

i once knew a girl who hadn't pierced her ears. just saying.
but she made up for it by having a lot of necklaces, hair ties, bracelets etc
also OP think about things other than jewelery you know her better than we do.

Straight from a chick.
You can branch out from jewelry. But if he gets her a 200 dollar necklace now, do you really think it'll make sense for him to get her a 50 dollar pair of earrings when they hit 1 year?
No, of course not. You know this yourself. Of course they know there are other things out there. But it's not like you can go backwards in a relationship and get her cheaper gifts. She's just gonna think you've gotten cheap.
It's great if you're the exception. In fact, everyone on the internet is always the exception to something that would usually include 99% of people. So I'm sure you're the exception.

All of those earring are ugly as f**k.

You are the best female in this thread.

Yeah, first page isn't so good. I was just linking to the earrings page.
Their simple ones are great though, very classy and humble.

I'm going to take your word for that. I don't really like earring that dangle in tiers like that though.

Oh please, I love how women on here assume that every girl that asks for a present every so often is some money grubbing materialistic wh**re. It just screams "Please accept me misogynistic anonymous, I need a group to belong to! I am your ideal woman!"
I'm glad there are women like you in this world to ask for nothing who also receive nothing. It makes it much easier for me to get everything I want, not only through "leeching" off the man I support, but through hard work too.

Why would you even ask for a present like this though? To show off? To appease your vanity? Jewelry is pointless.
You damn well better buy your boyfriend gifts that have equal monetary value. And that are all for him, none of this shared horsesh*t.

Nope, jewelry's fine. It's just not my cup of tea. Some women really enjoy it. In that case, jewelry would be a very good gift.
HOWEVER, any female who says
>hurr I'd do anything for TIFFANY'S lulz durr
is undeniably a money-grubbing wh**re.
Also, a protip for you:
If you are in an argument, and everyone disagrees with you, it's probably you. You, the worthless money-grubbing wh**re. Not us, the reasonable and even-keeled females.
You should probably get your priorities straight.

I don't know, why do you have a computer? To stay connected to a fantasy world? Why do you play vidya? To escape from the realities of every day life?
When the hell did it a sin for a token to show your affections every now and then?
I think you should reread my post more carefully again, but I do believe for every holiday (birthday, anniversary, no reason) I buy him gifts of twice the monetary value (new computer, new sound system) of these pointless materialistic trinkets I have to have since I am such a money grubbing wh**re

This your first day on anonymous, bud?

I love how this thread was about a sweet guy asking for adviceice on a present for a girl he loves, then girls came in and derailed it by putting each other down and saying horribly mean things to each other.
Ladies, ladies... simmer down.

>>implying the poster did not say that if group is against you then you must be wrong, not that jewelry is useless

buy 15 white roses and 1 red one in the middle. Get her something meaningful to your relationship doesnt have to be expensive but creative. Show her that you care/try and you';ll be fine

And jewelry allows you to do those things? Escape into a fantasy world? Get the f**k outta here, it looks pretty, gets you attention, and makes other chicks jealous.
I have a sh*tty ass laptop I use to browse web, facebook, and write up essays for school

>Implying straw men are a solid argument.
I think I made my point clearly, protip aside.
You must be the money-grubber, if you're trying to derail my entire argument just because I gave you a little protip.
Here's a 2-for-1 protip: Ignore the last protip. Also, stop money-grubbing; if you've ever had a Tiffany's piece (especially in the <$200 range), you'd realize that it looks like everything else, save the brandwhoring.

Haha, if I got any girl I've dated jewelry they would have laughed their asses off.

Once again, I reiterate, I'm glad there are women like you who don't understand the quality of diamond cuts, or designs, or how to dress themselves in the morning to not look like they just rolled out of the hamper. You make life a lot easier for us who do.
As for the rest of the upset women in this thread, you cat sit and bitch as much as you want, about how women are mean and awful and one time a prettier girl picked on you in 9th grade, or how because you can't get a guy to stay with you long enough to have an anniversary where he buys you a present, or how all women are mean and b'awww.
Thank you, but as the saying goes, there's always someone better than you, and someone worse than you.
I will go to sleep knowing, I am better than you.

Women aren't mean, you're just a c**t (remember the whole "It's just you" thing. I told you to disregard it, but recall it quickly, please). Also, your grammar is horrible (comma splices in particular).
I will go to bed knowing that I am better than you. I will also go to bed knowing that you are most likely a trolling virgin, because no one actually thinks like that.
I refuse to believe that someone could be as vapid as you pretend to be.

Buy her $200 worth of shares in PALM.

That's awesome that you have your point of view figured out and that you stick to it.
But you really shouldn't say that you are better than somebody else, especially when you don't even know them. Condescension isn't attractive, I'm afraid.


Holy sh*t, a no-nonsense woman? There should be more of you.

Take her, bro. I will have nothing to do with that sh*t. Except a hit-and-quit if she's hot.

>the quality of diamond cuts
Honey, we're talking a <$200 piece from Tiffany's. Diamond cuts? Maybe cubic zirconia cuts. I would rather have a guy take me on a nice evening out or buy something that I personally like with the money than spend it all on a simple ring or a pair of earrings just because they're from a luxury brand.

Take her somewhere nice to dinner. You don't need to buy her sh*t, 6 months isn't even an actual anniversary.

If a guy spent almost $200 on me for a 6 month anniversary, I would find him pretty financially irresponsible, and my attraction would jump down a bit.

This has to be a troll. Any woman would know you shouldn't even consider the phrase "diamond cuts" and "<$200" together.
Pretend women trolling women trolling men trolling women, I guess.

I'm not the one claiming that anyone who wouldn't f**k a horse for a <$200 gift from ZOMG TIFFANY'S doesn't know diamond cuts. So I think the person I was replying to is the troll/man in this scenario.

>implying anything about diamonds matter
If they were truly rare, or valuable, they wouldn't be going on necklaces. #1 marketing job of all time, and work conditions for diamond mining are historically awful.
Also, thanks for attracting all the douchebags in the world, it leaves people like me open to approach the down-to-earth girls that looked like they rolled out of bed... you know, because they care about themselves more than their appearance. <3

F**king overstock.com man.
I got my gf at the time some awesome pearls there on the cheap. It's reliable, just make sure you read all the reviews (obviously).
And even if you don't buy something there, it's a great place to go for gift ideas.

Yeah. $200 is at least two months of car insurance for me at the moment, and having my car legal for 60 days is a lot more important than some gaudy piece of jewelry.

But if he's not dead: take her to her favorite restaurant. Or do something reminiscent of how you met/your first date.
F**k that jewelry sh*t.

It's okay, I only shower weekly... ish. Doesn't mean I don't clean myself, I just don't have to waste time and water to take care of what sweats.
I'm just saying diamonds are a silly thing to spend money on, wouldn't a brass locket with a hand-cut picture mean something more than a blue box?


>implying taking care of your appearance does not include hygiene
>implying I'm the broad you were having a bitchfit with earlier

>Implying that not wearing jewelery means you don't change socks


Yeah. $200 is at least two months of car insurance for me at the moment, and having my car legal for 60 days is a lot more important than some gaudy piece of jewelry.

You must be coming from a very different economic situation than me, then, because I usually blow about $100 on a night out and that's going dutch.

don't get jewelry, it's a waste. Unless your girl has specifically said that she loves jewelry. Typically she will wear it a few times to show you that she likes it then it will go in the jewelry box forever because its too expensive or too nice to wear all the time.
It's better to get something from the heart, you're only in it 6 months you haven't given her very many of those really meaningful gives that she'll love.
The anon that posted the night out idea is onto something. She will have a blast, and be quite happy with it. You should probably get some minor gift as well. (nothing too extravagant, maybe 40-50 bucks)

The locket is such an adorable idea! I love sentimental things, rather than expensive things. Any stupid prick can buy a woman diamonds, but a sweet and thoughtful man will give a woman something personal. Maybe an inexpensive piece of jewelry with a sweet inscription. Generic jewelry makes for a boring gift. Nice jewelry can be beautiful and tasteful and classy, but I don't think it's a romantic gift at all.

I couldn't imagine doing that. I'm going to school full time and paying out of my pocket via the two part-time jobs that I juggle. Add an apartment, car insurance, food, and other monthly bills to that, and you have a lass who understands that $200 is not something to be taken lightly.

IMO save the Tiffany's for the 1 year gift (assuming your relationship comes to that).
You're better off buying something thoughtful for 6 months. Maybe tickets to a concert that she'd love? A new iPhone?
OR if she really bugs out for jewelry, then a simple, yet elegant bracelet, necklace or pair of earrings. Something that she can wear every day to almost any occasion. If you go this route, I prefer the simple, sturdy, elegant silver bracelet. It's been well-received numerous times. Try Village Silver or some similar retailer for that.

I hate you. I had a lab partner that did that. Nothing sucks more than working in a closed environment with somebody who reeks.

>Lulz I'm rich and you're poor that makes everything better
Not who you're replying to, but being fiscally responsible isn't a bad thing, especially in youth and young adulthood. My PARENTS make a good deal of money and, since I am in college, are basically paying for everything. Just because I have no financial responsibilities doesn't give me the right to blow cash like it's going out of style.
Maybe (by some strange act of God), you make all that money yourself. That's unlikely, though.
You'd do well for a little dose of consideration.

The best gift I ever received was a stencil of the cover of my favorite kids book.

I was just trying to say that if OP has money, then spending $200 on a special-occasion gift for his girlfriend isn't an unreasonable expenditure.

If you're trying to be romantic, jewelry, flowers and chocolates work well together. However, yes, this is hard to top, and not really the best idea long-term.
If you're trying to get closer to her as a friend, buy her something relevent to her interests (which you should've probably posted, we can't really suggest things)
One of the first presents I gave to mine was a new Ipod (her old one was very dated) wrapped in an expensive heavy scarf. Went down a treat, she still wears it everywhere two years later.

Read the rest, I don't smell bad. I clean what needs to be clean (ie, things that put off STINK)
