What do you get your not girlfriend?

ardinn

Ok people of AH's

Ive been "seeing" a girl for 7 months, just casual like!

Its her 30th today (thank god for Facebook)

Dont have a clue what to get her as we are not in a relationship but still feel I should get her something!

All options considered!

Jogathon

Anti-wrinke face and eye cream?

Botox voucher?

DrumSteve

Pregnant?

KeithM89

7 months?!
Piss or get off the pot!

Get her one ticket to some gig she'd like.

intellectual dosser

I'm going to 100% honest and say it sounds like you've been glued to the floorboards of the friendzone. My advice would be to get her nothing.

King George VI

Get her a bus pass. She'll love it.

cupcake83

Flowers and take her to dinner. Do men still do that?

sbsquarepants

7 months and she's your "not girlfriend". I'll tell you what i'd be getting her - replaced, that's what.

Maximus Alexander

Should this thread not be called "What do you get your friend (who is a girl)?"

Pumpkinseeds

A vibrator? Just sayin like, if you're 'seeing' but not going out with someone for 7 months and they didn't tell you or you didn't remember, that its their 30th birthday maybe you need to move on. Get her a good vibrator and move on, think of it as the gift that keeps on giving:D

I just read the OP and it actually looks like I've got the complete opposite end of it.

Fair play to you sir.

Still - get her nothing

If you buy a f*ck buddy gifts it's become the real deal unfortunately.

Sorry for your troubles.

Maybe i'm an old fogey but what does seeing someone actually mean? Is it just sleeping with someone with the ability to sleep with others too? Or is there dating involved?

Oh, in that case - nothing:mad:

if you're not going out and you get her something wont that send the wrong signals or do you want to be more? maybe hang back and maybe get her flowers at the very least

We are Sleeping together - not seeing other people - but not going out with one another! A strange one really!

A voucher for Mothercare

The_B_Man

Ye right, you know she's off bangin half the lads in Carlow!!

Maybe get her an STD check!!

Ruu

An engagement ring, that'll scare the bejaysus out of her and you'll never see her again. That or you could up sheet creek. You'll have a good old chortle about it later on in life either way.

We call that FWB where I come from. Friends with benefits. I'd still say flowers and dinner! I buy my friends flowers and take them to dinner on their birthdays sometimes anyway though.

You should chip in with the rest of her fella's and get her something nice between ye

Sounds like you are in a relationship. Not a very committed one, a casual relationship, which is grand, but you are all the same!

If she is having a party and you aren't invited I wouldn't get her anything!

If you are meeting up then stay clear of jewellry as it generally implies commitment, a bottle of swanky booze and some posh chocolates should cover it next time your alone?

ardinn

ok - dinner is out, her girlies doing that - she doesnt drink - She got about 10 box's of chocs allready. I was thinking flowers but what does that say?

I cant really get her nothing because she does like giving gifts and I know if it was my b'day i'd get an awesome gift! I'm so confused!!!!

Cupcake_Crisis

But a bow on your willy and give her the ride.

zl1whqvjs75cdy

Smash her back doors in.

dee_mc

What about an experience gift like a bungee jump or similar, something that doesn't scream romance!
Or a dirty weekend away, everyone's a winner.

Seaneh

Cook her dinner and then go down on her.

Shows here you care like.

This whole thing sounds way more hassle than it's worth if buying her a present is this tricky.

Fcking get on with it, throw your lot in with her or get back out on beer patrol.

Sounds like you care more about this than a casual relationship would suggest you should. Are you looking for it to become something more? Because that would affect the gift choice I reckon.

The Backwards Man

Buy her a frying pan. If she loves you she'll cook you a steak, if she just wants to be friends she'll wallop you with it.

No - I just dont want to look like a stingy Bástard!

Gift card it is! Lol

Santa Cruz

Why not get something that she uses regularly. Sanitary towels are always useful.

bumper234

Invite her around for a quickie and then remind her to make sure the door's closed properly when she leaves.

I thought you were my not boyfriend when I read the thread. Im in the same situation, seeing him for 6 months, we're not together. weird one.

Anyway, it all depends on what kind of not relationship you have. Its my birthday in 2 weeks and my not boyfriend is taking me out! I think I know where, with some of his friends. Saves the having to get me something, think thats perfect. Bring her for a meal, few drinks.

Now, if you're really comfortable together and theres no fear of mixed signals, get her perfume she likes and flowers. Girls love sentiment and I would bawl my eyes out if a man ever bought me flowers. I think its so romantic

Good to know we're not the only non couple couple out there!!

Froggy123

Get her a bottle of perfume and some flowers!!

Presumably you'll be saving money not having to take her for a birthday dinner so just spend the money you would have spent on a small present, tickets to a comedy gig or if something you think she'd be interested in.

Ah yes, as I suspected. Stalker starts a thread in AH looking for gift ideas. Now that's probably a first.

It's an ill-divided world out there. Some of us can't get a girlfriend for love nor money whilst others hare having their cake, and eating it.

Think i'll just do flowers and be done with it! easiest route out of it!

This non-relationship thing is really strange to me. I don't get it at all.

I'm not looking down on it or anything, I just don't really get it. Sounds kind of awkward.

Maybe I'm just an old fashioned romantic fool, but I would refuse refuse point blank to have a "not girlfriend".
If you're a girlfriend behave like one - take cock, then cook dinner and clean the gaf (no hoovering mind, I don't like being woken up from my post sex nap).
If you're a fúck buddy behave like one also -take cock and piss off (maybe leave some cans in the fridge, but don't bang the door on your way out - nap time, know what I mean)
These blurred lines are no good for me - I blame Pharrell Williams, there was none of this shít till he started mouthing off.

For us its the complete opposite. We tell each other about dates, see other people, but do everything people in a relationship do. So its kind of like an open relationship, but we wont sleep together if either of us meet someone.

I behave exactly like a girlfriend, go on dates, hold hands, go out with his friends, go out for dinner, the difference is we are still dating other people. His friends all know me as *****'s girlfriend....not some bird he's riding. We know exactly where we stand with each other and are always 100% honest.

I don't get it either. You're either in a relationship or you're happy, you can't be both.

I agree! Actually, it seems to me that most people just have a fear of commitment not all but many. That's fine, it totally is if it's mutual. I would find it very hard not to have deeper feelings for someone though. I'm also kind of the jealous type. Friends with benefits doesn't work for me.
