It's my crush's birthday...

[fadedmemories]

and I'm thinking of buying her a present. Unfortunately I really don't know much about her. The only conversations we've had consisted of me asking her questions that she answered with a yes or no. Don't get me wrong, she's not a terrible person by any means. I'm just painfully shy when it comes to her. We also don't belong in the same social circles, and have few mutual friends, thus she doesn't know that I like her.

So to cut the story short, will it be weird (for her) if I were to give her a present today?

[phil19]

get her a dildo. that way if she totally rejects you, she can go fuck herself

[deathinkosovo]

buy her a brand new vinyl record. you two can listen to it with the lights off as you peck on the lips on your hardwood bedroom floor and contemplate true teenage love.

all the kids are doing it.

[prozacparade]

Yes

Haha, this.

Ps. Yes, it'll be very creepy.

[Ferzaer]

yeah go buy her smthing. but if you ever think that you two dnt really suit together due to the social circles and she's in higher class,, btter stay away

[wilmaa]

Buy her a non-committal card. No disrespect, it's less scary, and hopefully she'll remember you.

It'll also give you something to talk about with her next time you see her, and ask her about her birthday ;)

AIDS, the gift that keeps on giving

[timb89]

:clap:

[chassmariee]

Don't get her anything, that would be weird because your not dating.

[THE_SICKEST]

[Fullblast]

Follow these simple steps, minus the whole christmas part.

Say happy birthday and give her a hug.

If shes awkward during the hug, or worse, kicks you in the nads... you know it's not right

If its a good hug offer to take her out when she's not busy (cause obviously she'll already be doing something on her birthday) to celebrate.

[Yellowcard2006]

If she doesn't think you know it's her birthday. It's weird. If you've never had a conversation. It's weird. If you posted about it on AP and didn't post pics. Well that's just wrong.

[denissuxx]

this, sorry

[makeshiftmind]

mozel tov!

[Smeee]

Get her a calculator-watch. Chicks dig them. Seriously.

[Reaver]

been there, done that. don't do it, it's super weird. just say happy birthday and she'll be glad that you remembered. but don't just join when everyone else is congratulating her. and just do it ok, if you dance around her waiting for the right moment, you'll probably screw up. so when you see her first time in the morning, just walk straight towards her and say it. listen to me, i know what i'm talking about.

/you know

[songydarko]

Well from experience...

There was this guy that liked me. We also were not in the same group of friends and he barely knew anything about me. Nor did he apparently realize I found him incredibly weird and gross. He came to my house at 9 o clock at night on my birthday and gave me perfume from Victoria Secret.... it's safe to say I kicked him the fuck out of my house asap and never spoke to him again.

So, moral of the story. Make SURE she atleast likes you a little bit and that you don't come off creepy. If you're going to get her a present make it something not so creepy and just be ... careful with your approach.

Or even better, just don't give her anything at all.

why the fuck would you tell her you like her with a present? this is backwards as fuck.


what if she doesn't like you back? then you just bought her a present for no reason

[argg_xo]

If I wasn't really close with someone or in the same social circle as them, I would find it a little creepy if I got a gift from them. But then again, I would also be intrigued and maybe want to talk to them more or find out why they got me a gift.

[kingspud]

"Don't get me wrong, she's not a terrible person by any means."

Did anything you said before that suggest that she is? if she only answers YES or NO to your questions maybe you're asking too many question or maybe she's shy too or maybe.... you are a terrible person!!!! sleep on it mon frere

see, what i dont understand is why you would do this to anyone, whether you liked them or not. He was just trying to do something nice for you...

[bladerdude360]

Yes it would probably be weird.

[songydarko]

Of course it's not the nicest thing to do by any means. But sometimes people don't get the picture and you need to let them down in a more brutal way otherwise they'll never leave you alone.

ha cool. i totally dont know that person and he might've been a total weirdo

[songydarko]

Exactly. He was incredibly creepy, and sometimes guys are just so creepy that you need to take the bitch route for them to know "okay it's time to back off".

[kingspud]

i wish i had something to add to this thread but the girls seem to have it in the bag :(

[TotalCollapse]

It sounds like it would be weird if you got her a present. So maybe you should just wish her a happy birthday and give her a hug instead.

[kingspud]

awww TotalCollapse, you are so in touch with your feminie side! ...wait a sec you are feminie! ...you're a fucking girl!

[kingspud]

appologies ....i'm a little wasted :-|

[AndrewIcex]

A friendly happy birthday wish could suffice I think.

[trappedintime]

Miiiiiiiiiiiiiix Tape!

[kingspud]

don't you dare start talking about mix tapes people! that deserves a whole thread of its own!

[rerelease_]

i bought my crush a 1000-thousand piece puzzle with macaroni picture for birthday. that was pretty stupid, but goddamn, a macaronipuzzle, i just had to do it. after she got the present, she was acting kinda awkward for a about week. oh well.

[zion the lion]

Just ask her what she wants for her birthday.

[sdbrown]

Get her a calculator-watch. Chicks dig them. Seriously.
I'll vouch for this.

But yeah, don't get her a gift. If she answers your questions with yes or no answers she's not interested. Interested girls would use the opportunity to ask you rebuttal questions. And to cushion the blow a bit, just because she's not interested now doesn't mean she never will be. But yeah, no present.

[Tautou107]

Just wish her a happy birthday, etc like others have said because just the fact you remembered would be nice. If you do decide to get her a present, though, don't do anything too extravagant; a nice, small gift you know she'd like (i.e. if she's mentioned anything lately) would suffice. But even that might be too much.

[mattmatumbo]

Offer to take her to a movie this weekend?

[WoodenSoldier]

Don't do it

[:-)]

Get her a calculator-watch. Chicks dig them. Seriously. No.

[nonamesleft]

I think a little bit, yes.

[perceptrons]

No.
You obviously have some growing up to do. It is a fact that chicks dig those watches.

[fadedmemories]

Thanks for all the advice you guys gave me. I've been checking this thread every few hours to read your thoughts.

I decided to get her a simple but tasteful gift just so she would know that I remembered her birthday. Which is why I'm surprised at myself when I ended up buying her the most cliche, unoriginal gift anyone could ever give: a birthday card. Fortunately, I couldn't find her and so I went home, found out that my sister's friend (who works at a local theater) gave my sister two free passes to the first screening of New Moon. I bought the two passes from my sister and I'll just give them to her (crush) the next time we ever get to meet.

EDIT: No I'm not going to watch New Moon, not even with her.

[tommyishere]

yeah, well the girl i like is sick and i joked about bringing her chicken noodle soup and she thought i was serious and wants me to come over, i just hate talking to parents
