Getting a gift for a woman can be a life changing situation for a man. Many find it hard because they are unaware of her likes and dislikes. Then there are days when she may not be in the best of moods to understand the sentiments behind your present. Here are some simple gift ideas that work well with most romantic occasions.

1) Flowers: This is a very common gift but the choice of flowers can make a difference. Find out her favourite flower and add it in the centre of the bouquet or create an innovative way of presenting the flowers.

2) Perfume: They work wonderfully as gifts. But find out what kind of perfume she would prefer-mild, strong, floral or any other type.

3) Jewelry: Your selection could range from small trinkets like charm bracelets, earrings, pendants and anklets. This entirely depends on your budget.

4) Gift Coupons: There are some men who are unsure of their girlfriend’s choice that they prefer to give them gift coupons of their favourite outlet. It seems like a good idea for some while others prefer to get real presents. 

5) Day At The Spa/Salon: Another new trend that is catching on is a paid package for a makeover at a salon or a day at the spa. This is definitely expensive but when love conquers everything so what is money.

There are many innovative ways to woo a woman and giving presents is just one of them. Explore new avenues to express your love and affection in a unique way.

Their eyes met across a crowded room. The party chatter ebbed away, and music slowed. The first lover’s gaze is the staple of the romantic novelist, and scientists believe they have now revealed the true nature of its attractive power. According to new research, romance has very little to do with it. That “look” is all about sex and ego. “It does seem to be a sort of narcissistic thing. People are attracted to people who are attracted to them, said Ben Jones in the face research laboratory at the University of Aberdeen. “It’s really a very basic effect that we are all; at some level at least, aware of. If you smile at people and you maintain eye contact it makes you more attractive,” he said. 

The work challenges most previous studies of facial attractiveness that have focused on physical characteristics such as preference for symmetrical faces or masculine versus feminine features. “Social signals about how attracted someone else is to you actually seem to be quite important “, he said. “You are attracted to people who are attracted to you, and that shows attractiveness is not just about physical beauty” 

Dr Jones and his colleagues’ say they have shown that attraction is based on social cues that say, “I’m interested in you.” The most important cue is whether someone is looking directly at you. 

There are certain things that you should never say to your girlfriend. Unless of course if your girl is a mind reader. Among the long list of things here are the top ten.
