I know him but hes kinda shy i guess. we talk quite a bit but nothing on a real personal level really. AND NO IM NOT SELF-CENTER (Amused_Observant!!!)Its just that its only been in the past week or so that weve gotten real close

Ask a man or a close friend what males like in terms of everything. But you say that yall been dating for 6 six months, at least by now you should know some not all of the things that he like and dislike. But test the waters and it will not lead you a stray becuz you are right, you will be getting everyone else of your friends something and it would probaly make him feel not that important to you becuz your lover should your friend as well. Also look at it from another point of view vice versa. You would not wanna feel left out while everybody else is opening there presents would you? Uh no I do no think so..... So yes purchase you man something for Christmas and remember that JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

After 6 months, a small gift is totally fine. Stay away from anything too mushy or too "love forever," since that will put pressure on the relationship. Get him something neutral, like you would for a brother or male friend. A scarf/glove set, a CD, a movie, a box of his favorite candy, a picture of the two of you in a simple frame.

How can you be going out with someone for six months and not know them? Yes, get him a present, but also try to figure out why you don't know him. If after a couple months, sometimes weeks depending on the guy, I don't feel I know that person, then I let him go, because something is obviously wrong. Good luck!

If he is your boyfriend and you have been going out with him for 6 months then it is time for you to figure out a few things about him. His likes, dislikes, etc. That might give you a clue about what would be a good gift...if you really want to give him a gift other than yourself.

You really don't need a time frame to get someone you care about a present. I would get him an ornament that represents his character. If he likes sports get him a sports ornament etc. I wouldn't buy him anything expensive or extravagant but something that is touching and lets him know you took time to think of it. it's not the gift, it's the thought that counts. good Luck.

YES... Def get him something. Im LUCKY. My husband makes a list of all the things he wants and then me and his family split it up. Which is really clever if you think about it. Also, I make a list of things I hear him say throughout the year that he wants... and If he doesnt have it by xmas..... I get it! Then he's like, YEA>>> I WANTED THIS!!!! I got him something our first xmas together. We'd only been together for 3 months, I got him some burnable CD's for music.

its time. as far as what to get him, you need to figure out what it is he likes. If the only thing you can think of that he likes is you, may I suggest you set this guy free? You're kind of self-centered and barely acknowledge anyone else is sharing the planet with you. how can you be with someone for six months and have no idea what they like?

SOMETHING THAT WILL MEAN SOMETHING BUT NOT THAT EXPENSIVE THAT WAY IF HE DOESN'T GET YOU ANYTHING YOU DON'T GO BROKE GETTING HIM SOMETHING. YOU KNOW HIM AND WHAT HE LIKES WHAT'S A THOUGHTFUL GIFT THAT'S CHEAP LIKE 40 OR 50 BUCKS? OR IN YOUR PRICE RANGE AND A CARD, CARDS ARE ALWAYS NICE ON CHRISTMAS AND GET ONE THAT SAYS I CARE ABOUT YOU BUT I'M NOT IN LOVE WITH YOU AND I'M GLAD WERE GOOD FRIENDS, YOU DON'T WANT TO SAY ANYTHING THAT WILL SCARE HIM. OR YOU COULD GO TO TJ MAXX, I'M SURE IF THEY HAVE THAT WHERE YOU LIVE OR BURLINGTON COAT FACTORY AND GET HIM SOMETHING NICE AND NAME BRAND BUT NOT TO EXPENSIVE. NO JEWELRY, NO COLOGNE, SHOES, OR OUTFITS AND SHIRTS FINE BUT NOTHING MORE. NOTHING TO PERSONAL OR EXPRESSIVE IT GIVES THE WRONG IDEA AND PLUS YOUR GONNA BE ALL EXCITED BY WHAT YOU BOUGHT HIM AND MIGHT GET DISAPPOINTED BY WHAT HE GIVES YOU CAUSE YOU PUT SO MUCH INTO YOURS THAT'S IF HE GETS YOU ANYTHING. KEEP THAT IN THE BACK OF YOUR MIND SO YOUR NOT THAT CRUSHED.

Of course you should get him a present! Why don't you get him a gift certificate to a favorite restaurant or store?
