Giving the right gifts can show just how much you understand and care for the person. This can have a huge impact create deep connections and stronger bonds. But gift-giving can often feel tricky, particularly between romantic partners. Emotions and expectations can often get mixed up. In relationships that are still in their early stages, it can be best to give gifts that are thoughtful yet simple and something that can be shared. Spend your money on a shared and exciting activity you can do together, rather than just one big-ticket item. Relationships that are further on may benefit from bigger investments and expressions of love, but only to the extent that the recipient partner will appreciate them. Otherwise, it could be best to stick to something that is small and thoughtful. Gift-giving provides a wonderful excuse to bring more joy and meaning to your relationships. You don’t even need to wait for a special occasion such as a birthday. Give more and above all give better and happiness will soon follow. But more than anything, most people simply want to feel that they have been seen and heard. Use your next gift to show you’ve been paying attention.
. Showing empathy is so important in relationships. It’s a wonderful feeling to know that you’ve been listened to, understand and that your joy or pain matters to someone else. In today’s modern society, where much focus is on social media likes and people glued to their phones, the gift of being noticed and understood has become a real commodity. When it comes to offering gifts you should focus your attention on the recipient not on what the gift says about you. Focus on what it creates for the other person.
