Never in a million years. There is absolutely no way I could ever give a gift
to my best girlfriend Riley, without putting any love or concern in the
thought process. There are a phenomenal amount of personality types in
this world. With that being a given, it is no small feat to be blessed with
having someone in this world who actually means the world to you. A
person who understands your sense of humor and accepts the way you do
things, even though they don't do them the same way. That's love and it is
very much appreciated by this woman. To randomly pick out an object of
affection or gratitude is not an option. As I have continued to live and learn

that she would look like a femme fatale in the color of your choice, why
risk making her feel uncomfortable in placing that color in her wardrobe?
Save those type of exercises for another time and place. Don't abuse the
privilege of being able to give a gift with a chance to experiment with your
girlfriend's choices in her lifestyle. If you want to make a purchase for
something she can exhibit in her home, the color rule still applies. Try to
keep your imagination in line with her decorum. Adding to and not
subtracting from are the key elements in play here. Has she established a
favorite subject of interest in her home? Does she like Betty Boop or
Mickey Mouse? Is she into butterflies or refrigerator magnets? Chances are
that she is into something and you choosing something completely
