I am a guy in my late twenties who has the following predicament. I often start my relationships as friendships and then push the envelope. My bad luck is that for the third time now the girl has a birthday in the very early days - and I need to decide what to buy.
I can buy a 'friend's gift (e.g. book/cd) and forfeit my chances as a lover or I can buy a 'girlfriend' gift (e.g. jewlery) but risk overplaying my hand.
In the past two instances, I had two opposite results: one girl jumped into a relationship and another freaked out and iced the friendship. I don't want to lose this one or freak her out but on the other hand, I don't want her to think I am an uncaring cheap-skate.
So, what am I to get for a fun, smart and all-round great person with whom I currently have an ambiguous relationship with?
(While the ideal answer would be a joint experience - such as a golf outing with lessons plus picnic, hot air balloon, etc. - I cannot do so as I will be in another city)
Help me!
