    It's almost Xmas already, ugh.... I need HELP

    You may not think so, but as far as I'm concerned, it's almost Christmas already.

    Now here's the problem. I do not have ONE single clue what to get my girlfriend this year and I need some suggestions.

    So here's some back story on her and the gifts I've gotten her:

    I commissioned a painting for her, a massage chair, a Razer Mouse and Keyboard combo(oh yeah, she's a total gamer nerd like me), trip to Cambria, Ca., some really nice plants and flowers, a Nintendo 3DS, several 3DS games, and a Scottish Fold Kitten.

    I can't buy her jewelry because she works at a shop that her family owns and they sell tons of REALLY high end jewelry and she has a ton of it at home. I refuse to buy her clothes because God forbid any of it be too big(lol). She has an iPad, she has an Xbox, and she has a really nice computer so I can't think of any gadgets she'd want.

    Only idea I have so far is a weekend getaway and a Hot Air Balloon ride, I think that'd be nice and romantic but I don't know....

    SO yeah, thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas? Anyone that can just relate and wanna vent like I am?

    This wasn't exactly a 'Christmas' gift.. But for my Birthday, my ex hired us an incredibly hot escort.. 3 hours of pure 'fun'.

    Best $3500 she ever spent.

    You don't have a clue what your girlfriend likes and so asked the MMO-Champion community for advice? What a great move!

    On a serious note: Why don't you ask her what she likes? Worked out fine for me until this day. If you don't want to ask her: get her something that reminds her of some great experience you both share!

    Just get her a giftcard.

    If you can draw, paint, sculpt or craft, do something yourself that has personal meaning to her or both of you.

    Do something with her instead of buying a gift, since you're saying she has everything.
    Romantic getaway, spa for two, holiday tickets.

    I'm a girl myself. Just sayin.

    Tickets to a band/artist she really like?
    Books, not everyone enjoys reading though.
    Bodyshop(or similiar shops) always have a lot of good stuff, last year I bought my girlfriend a calander from there, 1st-24th dec, each day she could open up a new box and there was a new product. She loved it. You could make one yourself and put in things you know she likes.

    Just a few things on top of my mind.
    The nerve is called the "nerve of awareness". You cant dissect it. Its a current that runs up the center of your spine. I dont know if any of you have sat down, crossed your legs, smoked DMT, and watch what happens... but what happens to me is this big thing goes RRRRRRRRRAAAAAWWW! up my spine and flashes in my brain... well apparently thats whats going to happen if I do this stuff...

    Giftcards are for the lazy people who don't even try. Honestly I'd rather get socks and underwear than a giftcard lol.

    As to the topic at hand. The lakers tickets would only be good if A) she likes sports or B) you can actually afford them. Or you could always propose to her

    By the way, don't be scared to buy clothes! Just don't be boring, get her a beautiful evening dress, real sexy underwear with corsets and the whole package. Also, better to buy too big a size than too small. Believe me, there's nothing worse for a gal than realising you can't cram into a clothing gift. Just save the receipt and trade it for a smaller one if it's a bit loose! She can NOT be that sensitive that it will turn ugly.

    I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person who's ever felt stumped about what to get their significant other. Really, this post is just to hear the various random ideas from anyone who feels so inclined to share something.

    As for your suggestion of getting her something that reminds her of a time she and I shared together, for her birthday this year I had a really gorgeous portrait of the two of us made, using a picture we took together when I took her to Cambria for Valentines Day.

    Giftcards are an indirect way of getting money.

    Gifts are an indirect way of getting money as well in most situations.

    The flip side however is if you buy her some clothes that are too big.. She's going to assume you think she's fat.

    The getaway idea is pretty much top of the list at the moment. I think a Hot Air Balloon ride would be fun, unique, and romantic. You're a girl, what do you think of the idea?

    I can almost guarantee you (unless she's a wierd one) that she will be amazed by an evening dress; it also reflects your taste What do you want her to wear to look stunning? If you're abit lost stick to dark colours and simple design.

    Then you can use this dress to take her out to dinner

    Get her a microwave, bitches love microwaves.
    Why am I back here, I don't even play these games anymore

    The problem with the internet is parallel to its greatest achievement: it has given the little man an outlet where he can be heard. Most of the time however, the little man is a little man because he is not worth hearing.

    Tickets to go to a gaming event or convention? Comic-con maybe? Sports? Disney? Universal? One of the coolest things I ever got someone was the ride-a-long at drivepetty.com where you ride in a Nascar style car. Looks like there's even one near you in Fontana. Books? Movies? A trip somewhere?

    That's all I got. Hopefully one of those gives you an idea. Good luck.
