Guessing a gift for a woman is not an easy task, especially for the New Year. First, you need to understand what gifts can disappoint and upset a woman.
By eliminating obviously doomed options, you will increase your chances of success and a sincere smile.
AiF reports what you shouldn’t give a woman for the New Year, citing experts.
Prohibited list
1. Forget about alcohol, even premium.
It’s even worse if, in the midst of the celebration, it’s the turn of the gifted bottle.
2. An interior trinket is more of a go-to option for people you don’t know very well.
It will probably first gather dust on a shelf and then end up in the trash.
3. Beware of the idea of giving a woman a handbag, gloves or other accessories.
It is unlikely that you will guess correctly with the color, style, material, volume, and so on.
4. In Soviet times, you could touch the heart of a beauty with French perfume.
But now, when the choice of perfumes and fragrances is simply endless, you risk falling into disfavor if you make a mistake with the bouquet.
5. You will hardly find a worse gift than a cream for wrinkles or other age-related changes.
In this way, the man openly talks about the shortcomings that the woman could not hide.
6. Another unhealthy idea is to give a gift certificate to a beauty salon that provides services that you understand little about.
Don't be lazy and at least read reviews about the establishment you are going to send your lady to.
7. The option with tickets to the theater or, God forbid, to the cinema can put a person in a difficult situation.
Consider that on the date you choose the woman will be busy.
8. Woe to the man who decides to put a set of dishes or another thing under the Christmas tree to replace the one that broke.
And finally, when choosing a gift, remember that its high cost can put the person in an awkward position.
In such a situation, it would be rude to refuse to accept the gift, and if you accept it, an awkward feeling of duty may arise.
