That depends on what type of girl she is- perfume is a good way to go. Try L'Eau D'Issy or Angel, maybe Chanel Coco. No matter what you do, get at least one red rose to accompany it, NOT from King Soopers or Safeway. Find a florist near you-they'll probably be three dollars per rose, and they'll most likely have a special going for a dozen. If you're thinking Jewelry, then make sure you have the money to get good stuff. Pearls are great-Majorica has great pearl strands and earings for pretty good prices (probably $268 and up for the strand, $50 and up for the earrings). Zales has a heart shaped pendant out in yellow gold accented with princess cut diamonds for $199 that isn't half bad. Find out whether she likes Yellow or White Gold, that's important. If she happens to be blonde with blue eyes I might suggest white gold/blue sapphires, they'll bring out the colour in her eyes and look great. I'd say go with and earring or a necklace- rings can send some confusing signals depending on the recipiant. Sexy? Tread carefully- Girls tend to be less excited about receiving lingerie than us guys are about giving it. She could love it-or she could become extremely embarressed and feel like you're pressuring her for play. Plus she might think that since you gave it to her you'd expect her to model it for you. Depending on where you are in your relationship she may not like that idea too much. But look into it anyway, Victoria's Secret has some nice stuff if you just browse their store. Pick something that will accent her best features- I.E. if she has a great chest the Very Sexy Plunge Push Up Bra would be a good choice. Or if she has a great butt try one of the see through lace thongs that tie on the hips etc.

Hey guys, I've got a friend named April (she is also a sohpmore in HS)-I met her about 3 1/2 months ago and we've been good friends since. She's the kind of girl that every guy is looking for, she's gorgeous, she has the most attractive personality of anyone I have ever met, she's funny, intelligent, sweet, sincere, modest, and is just someone who makes me feel like a better person (and I'm not exactly a stand up individual). Up until about two weeks ago I was absolutely content to be friends, I was just never really interested in her as anything more than a friend. However, the thought of her as a girlfriend is becoming more and more appealing every day, I'm getting more and more attracted to her every day. I'd really like to turn our friendship into something more, but I'm worried that I'll ruin our friendship by asking her out or making a move. Since I would really like to have her in my life for a few years this is not something that I want to risk. I can't tell if she's interested or not (which is something I'm usually good at) simply b/c it's in her nature to lead guys on. She just can't help it because she's so sweet, the way she talks and listens always makes you feel like she likes you. I was wondering if any of you guys know anything I could do to make her more interested in me. Thanks, Brett

Hmmm, that's always an awkward situation for girls (from what I can tell anyway). I should think that the easiest thing for you is just make it very clear that you like the guy, hopefully he'll reciprocate and ask you out. If you know the guy really likes you and is just too shy to ask you out then I would say make the first move, it will make him feel a lot better. But on the other hand if you don't know whether he likes you or not then being the one asking him out may be a little akward if he turns you down, in this case the best situation would be to follow my first advice. Some ways to let him know you're interested are just to give him all your attention when you're talking to him, look him in the eye, smile alot, laugh at his jokes, be physical (I'm not talking about grabbing his crotch, but when he hugs you don't shy away, and don't be afraid to lay your head on his shoulder, lay on the couch with him when you two cats are hanging out, etc.), and just try to make him feel better about himself. If he doesn't get the point by then, he's pretty damn dense.

Well now that depends on exactly where she is moving. If she is moving to another city in state- maybe 45 mins to an hour away (possibly more depending on your schedule and whether you can drive or not), then I'd definetly continue the relationship. You can still talk on the phone, see eachother on weekends, the only thing that would change is that you'd have to plan when you get together. Spontaneity wouldn't work in that situation. Now if she was moving somewhere hours and hours away, or worse, out of state-then I would call off the relationship and just try to be friends. There's no way it could work, you'd only see eachother every few weeks at best, and frankly a relationship that exists solely on the phone is worthless. Even as friends it would be rough (especially out of state), but at least that might have a chance of working.
