1 Year Anniversary .. Gift Ideas?

It's coming up to a year for my girlfriend and I. I'm 17 and she's 16. Decided to get her a ring (show's commitment, etc ..) and I'm gonna make her a scrapbook of our time together so far (she likes that kind of stuff) but I was wondering if I could be more original?

If you read what I first wrote nevermind. I was thinking too far into this. Yea that sounds like a good idea. All I have to say is Picnic at a romantic spot.

oh so young.. The scrapbook is a good idea. Try taking her somwhere that shes been wanting to go or do somthing that you normally wouldnt be interested in doing. Dinner somewhere SHE likes or a hobby or activity etc.

Make sure it's an engagement ring.

well...if you havent done it yet...Do it..if ya no what I mean...

Sex toys are always great...girls really LOVE those after a few tries:P

The ring is a great idea, I bought my g/f (now ex g/f) a necklace for her birthday, and a matching ring for our 1y

Yea if you do decide to buy her something, I'm assuming this is real jewlery ya cheap bastard! j/k, that it's worth it because it is hard work trying to get that 400$ ring back

at 16 and 17... don't get her a ring. get her a necklace or a bracelet or something of that sort. however the scrapbook is a great idea (esp because in marriage terms paper is the traditional 1 year gift *shrugs*). flowers always work fine though

diamond earings. I got mine from my boyfriend at the time when I was 16, and still wear them. dont get her a ring unless its something shes picked out or you know she'll absolutly like. most rings are ugly and you'd probably be wasting your time and money if you buy her something she doesnt like.

you let me know in a couple of months of that silver band turns pink
j/k. Some guys just start off with the fake jewlery first just to see if their worth the time and money...yes it's pretty bad but my other friend got screwed buying this girl an expensive ring and she dumped his ass the next day, she moved, he lost money, we all had a great laugh

Great idea. I'm gonna take her to play basketball at the park, she's always asked me for us to play (she's on the team) but we never have. Then we can have a picnic! Can't wonder too far from home cause of her parents but sounds like it'll be a good day. I've given her a necklace already, and a matching bracelet. I think I can find a beautiful ring. Thanks for the help.

Edit: And I'm gonna look into the diamon earings. Damn, I need a job.

Re: Re: Re: 1 Year Anniversary .. Gift Ideas?

i was gonna suggest something classy... say, go down the local, a few pints, then maybe a kebab and a minicab back to hers... j/k

Dinner at a nice place never fails , flowers are a must (one single rose). good luck
