Men's bathrobe: appropriate and Christmas gifts?
 
Men's bathrobe: appropriate and Christmas gifts? I have this new boyfriend, about 8 weeks we've been dating. It's not really serious yet, but seems to be going in that direction. Well, figures it is right at gift-giving time, to add stress. I don't know what to get him. I thought a nice coffee-table book. He doesn't have one. I also thought about a museum membership, he would enjoy it. But, he has mentioned a couple of times that he needs a bathrobe. Is this an appropriate gift for a new relationship? I would want to get him a really nice one, but am afraid that a gift of about $150 would be too much at this stage, and may embarrass him? I think a book may be too impersonal, but given along with the museum membership, it may become more personal. Any thoughts?
 
 
-I remember the sticky situation you are in. You want to get a good gift, but not TOO good! I actually made the mistake of buying my boyfriend of 2 months a fairly expensive watch for Christmas! But, guess what? He married me anyway.:-) I have just always loved to give jewelry as Christmas gifts. I guess because I love it so much myself.:-) If he wears ties, what about a tie tac? I think they are so elegant on a man. Just a thought........You can get a pretty nice 14K gold one for under a $100. -i think $150 is too much to spend at this point--it's still early on. i think a book, even a coffee table book, would be a nice, appropriate gift. -You can never go wrong with a nice bottle of wine. -How about delaying the bathrobe until Valentine's Day? You will be in the second trimester of the relationship
