Based on questionnaires, psychologists have put together the 5 worst gifts that can jeopardize a relationship that has begun to develop. For example, a large-scale survey showed that if at the beginning of a relationship you give your loved one jewelry (especially rings), this is fraught with great embarrassment on her part.
Gifts are meant to express how much people respect each other, what they think of each other, and how they envision the future. And believe me, it is not so easy to choose the right present. If you buy underwear or clothes and don't guess the size (buy too small or large), it can always cause a fight. A bouquet or chocolate, in turn, indicates that when choosing a gift, you did not find it difficult to show even a minimum of imagination. Here is a list of gifts women have identified as completely unacceptable (especially at the beginning of a relationship).
1. If you are not going to ask for her hand, avoid jewelry and especially rings. This will prevent you from creating an unreasonable impression of wanting to take your relationship to the next level.
2. While the ring is considered too “assertive,” impersonal items such as kitchen utensils are perceived by women as a personal insult. You will be lucky if the donated saucepan does not end up on your head.
3. If you are together for a short time, avoid shopping for underwear. Your partner may perceive this gift as too intimate, and understand it ambiguously.
4. Did you buy tickets for a sporting event, although she is not interested in sports, or tickets for a concert of a group that you like first of all? You couldn't provide a better proof of your selfishness.
5. Avoid any cheap office gifts. Work definitely shouldn't fall into the realm of personal gifts. Be sure she won't appreciate the armpit mat.
