Title: Small gifts to bring? Post by: grant5432 on June 17, 2003, 04:00:00 AM Hi!
I plan to leave in 3 weeks for Peru. I figured the women I meet would like it if I brought them a small gift. Anyone have any suggestions for something small (easy to fit into a carryon bag) that Latina women would like (other than flowers) for a first date? And do most of you bring them some type of gift on a first date? Any suggestions greatly appreciated! -Grant Title: Small gifts Post by: John O on June 17, 2003, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Small gifts to bring?, posted by grant5432 on Jun 17, 2003
As a rule, I rarely give a gift on a 1st date, unless it's the 1st time meeting a woman I've been corresponding with a while. I've gotten good results from small stuffed animals & T-shirts; these are also easy to pack. Always go for cute over quirky, unless you know her tastes. Chocolates are fine, too, although they can also be bought in-country. If you're going to meet someone you've been corresponding with, ask her what she likes, her favorite animal, color, etc. Suerte... Title: Re: Small gifts to bring?

I wouldn't give a gift to a woman on the first date and I don't think that it will be expected. So if you give them a gift I think they will be some what surprised. If that is what you want to do, I would suggest you buy them something funny or a conversation piece and nothing at all serious. How about waiting until the third date and then taking her out to buy her something she really wants. At that point I am sure you would have a much better chance of having the gesture being reciprocated. Title: Cali Pro, where did you ex go?

Did you/she just gradually lose interest, and the she went with relatives or a friend? Title: Re: Cali Pro, where did you ex go? Post by: Calipro on June 17, 2003, 04:00:00 AM ... in response to Cali Pro, where did you ex go?, posted by bogota vet1 on Jun 17, 2003
She lives here in Phoenix with her new husband. He is a few years younger than me but I would say I'm in better shape. |
