It is very important when selecting a gift you consider the tastes and interests of the person to whom it is intended. So, girls are not made to give the machine, and the boys dolls. However, very interesting way to present the book to the reader or bakeware cookie to the one who enjoys cooking.
You also have to remember the "Golden rule giver": whatever the gift was prepared, the main thing that gave it from the heart, with love. Of course, just fine to guess what dreams of the hero of the occasion, to carry out his cherished desire. This will indicate that you are perfectly versed in the people, with attention and respect for their interests.
A gift chosen with warm feelings, filled with positive energy which then gives them to his master. It will contribute to establishing between you even more friendly and trusting relationship.
For example, I don't like when I give money, because it suggests that person does not like to waste time for reflection and choice of gift. "Buy yourself anything you want" - usually speak at the same time. But after such a purchase - not something that make even the most modest souvenir from the hands of a loving person. This gift obespechivaetsya, it does not bring happiness.
It is not necessary that donated thing was super expensive or very fashionable. First, it's not all love and not all in need. Much more important to be able to stress that the person is present, you care and that you feel the best feelings.
After all, in the end, it is not the present - the road of love.
