Heres the thing. I bought the girl I was seeing a Victoria's Secret gift card for Christmas.We had stopped seeing each other so the last gift I gave her, she asked me not to get her anything else becasue she didnt feel right.So now I got this VC gift card.I have all girls in my family (sisters,cousins,Aunt) but I think this would be creepy to give to one of them.
I have a really good female friend though that has been there for me through a lot and we are really close and I could think of no one else who would deserve this more.Of course I was gonna get her something but now that I have the card I was thinking I can give it to her.I just dont want her to feel wierd and think something else like I want to see her in lingerie or whatever.Should I just give it to her and not think about it or should I tell her the truth so that she dont feel wierd.I just dont want her to feel bad either like Im giving her someone elses gift.Opinions?

I think it would be a lovey gesture to give the card to your friend. Use your best judgement in what you say when you give it to her, so that your intention is understood, if you are concerned that she may misunderstand.
Perhaps something like... "I ended up with an extra gift card, and I bet they have something you would enjoy, so I would like for you to have it." If she is your good friend, she will know that you either bought it for your ex or a family member and decided not to give it to them. You don't need to sweat the details when giving it to her, but don't play it off like that was your first choice of gift for her, either.
Victoria's Secret has very nice things for all tastes and levels of modesty as well as bath oils and lotions that make any girl feel pampered. A good friend will understand, and appreciate getting to pick out something nice for herself.

This seems to fall under the category of regifting...which in itself is totally okay. You just want to be honest with people about when you are doing it, or gift appropriately.
The rule of thumb is that if you feel weird about it, you might want to think twice. I am all about trusting instincts.
I think I'd tell her the truth about the gift, ask if she would like to have the gift, then if she does, give it to her and let her know how you really want her to have a nice gift.

No, If you want a real good gift card you can get them one from Vicotria's Secret that is worth $1000 and it is totally free for you. I got one for my sister and it arrived at my house a week later and all I had to do was enter my zip code. If you are interested the link is http://urlx.org/directtrack.com/72da4 , you should give it a try.

I think you should give the card to your friend, like u said she deserve it.. and then it's just giftcard, and it's up to her to decide on what she want to get with the giftcard. I don't think she would take it the wrong way, especially if she's been there for u such a long time, she should know that's not your intentions.

Give it to her. They have other things there besides lingerie. Don't tell her it wasn't originally meant for her.
