Holiday Gift giving can create expectations of your partner(s) during the holiday season. This is a good way to set yourself up to be let down. It may even lead to frustrating holiday grudges, resentment, or arguments.
We wanted to get right to the important points of holiday gift-giving so, we’ve created this Holiday Gift Guide to give you some tips for this holiday.
COMMUNICATE!!
Seriously ask them, tell them, talk to them! When people get gifts without communicating it can really just make any gift seem thoughtless and impersonal.
Take the time to communicate. Inquire about things they are recently interested in or talk with them about something that they may have wanted to get for a while. When you communicate in a mindful way it shows care, and will still be a surprise the day of, we promise!
Think About What You Can Do Financially
The range of prices for gifts is endless. So maybe talk to your lover about what you can do for them this year. It may be a handmade coupon book or it may be a trip to Italy. Either way, communicating this will put into perspective what you are able to do for them.
Plus, it’s important for us to be mindful of spending, especially if finances have been a discussion for you two. Perhaps decide on a holiday gift budget so that way financial boundaries are respected and gifts are still given!
Get Rid of Gifts and Just Do Something Together!!
With all the consumerism madness going on during the holidays maybe you just want to escape on a trip or maybe you just want to spend it getting a couples massage! Think of things outside the traditional that you two will enjoy together without having to give any gifts that may not be what the other really wanted or needed.
Also, taking the time to plan out a date night or getaway can be just as fun and emotionally arousing for many people. Sometimes a holiday gift doesn’t have to be a present wrapped in a box with a bow.
Those Give Away Kinda Gifts…If You Get One of These
