Xmas present question

[WizardofOz]

I bought my girlfriend of two months a stuffed animal for Xmas in addition to something else. My logic behind the animal is that I wanted her to have something she can look at and hold that reminds her of me when I am not around. My concern here is that she is 27 and I am 23. Do you think that the stuffed animal is too young and she won't like it?

You know if she'll like a stuffed animal more than any of us will. It's a personal preference.

 

Is the stuffed animal or the "something else" the main gift?

i really believe that it isn't what you get for her, it's the thought and concern that you put into getting someone else something. the fact that you took the effort to get her something thoughtful, and for a genuinely kind and romantic reason says it all to me. i think she will see it this way, as well. there is no upper limit on age when it comes to showing someone conventional affection. i think your gift sounds great... i can only hope that this christmas, a man in my life shows such thoughtfulness for me! i'm also 26, so i think i can speak to you as someone in the target age range.

Each gift is 50-50

I would get her a bear and flowers sent to her, but do not send her roses for Christmas.

It kind of depends on what the stuffed animal looks like.

I would send roses on any other day except for Christmas or Easter. Not sure why I just feel like it is not appropriate to send roses on those two days.

i don't associate roses with xmas either. you are official with this girl? you had the talk? why not get a picture and frame one of you two. ... if you have one.

It depends on the girl.

 

It's only been 2 months so the gift shouldn't be too big nor serious.
