gift ideas

 Gift items for adult lovers

a meaningful gift indicates that we knew and thought about her interests (and her preferences must be considered too).
FIRST
Choose a book or a set of books in the type she likes. maybe mystery if interested? or drama or poetry or picture magazine subscription , to the type you know she likes. unless she is the rare lady that will say "book? boring". then instead of book,  continue the list for other suggestions. a book has the advantage as showing that you see her as a thinker not you see her shallowly.

b, i recall in series big bang, that lady gave Penny a portrait painting. similarly, hire a local artist to paint personalized art. if you can't afford that, then a mug with a decoration or theme you know she likes, filled with colored wrapped candy sweets, or simply wrapped in colorful wrapping paper. if can afford more expensive than a mug, then better than a mug, give Kitchenware, whether a new coffee machine, or electric can opener etc. or cookware, or if apt, a cocktail kit.

c, if you can afford buying jewelery, then make it "Personalized". depending on budget and occasion choose wrist bracelet or necklace, or ring engraved with "her initials" or a meaningful date in her life or your relationship. those not in top ten percent , will probably need options with gold plated or just a pair of earrings. but for those who can aff, important to spend as their status not "cheaper than status". i mean imagine a rich giving simple earrings!

d, a gift certificate to a spa etc. or even just to a long professional massage. similarly for a cooking class, she can attend free, to fill the gap until your next meeting.

e, a repeating gift, that "keeps on giving" monthly delivery of wine tasting or fruit (reference series everybody loves Raymond) or any of her interests. it can ne a magazine about food,  or a book club.

f, if you know she likes tech stuff, then a new smartwatch, or new wireless headphones or something tec category.

g, an empty scrapbook or photo album for her to fill, and a short handwritten personal note. if you can afford then "monogram it" like homer simpson did when he changed his name, but not with his initials instead with your and her initials. similarly towels, pillowcases etc.

so those are some suggestions of gifts for adults. when i was young, age nine, i felt very excited when my girlfriend bought me a lego gift, fond memory even now decades later, but adults have a different level for appropriate gifts.
