9 Perfect Gift Ideas For Your Girlfriend

Before we get started, your girlfriend is not some mythical creature who you will never please with a gift. In fact, you coming here and searching for an idea shows you care, which is what really matters. And if you’ve been listening to her, even a little, you shouldn’t have too hard of a time coming up with the perfect gift ideas for your girlfriend.

Here are all the gifts she’ll definitely love. You know her best, so pick something for her off this list and wow her!

Now, unless you trust your knowledge of her size, I would avoid clothes. I’ll get into exceptions later, but this is such a touchy subject so it’s best to avoid it.

# Her favorite snacks

This seems small, but knowing all her favorite treats will impress her. Find a cute basket and go to the store. Get her favorite salty snack, sweet snack, maybe a jumbo cup for her favorite drink, a throw blanket so she can relax and watch her shows, and her favorite coffee, tea, or alcoholic beverage.

# Something sentimental

Sentiment counts for a lot. You don’t need to buy her a diamond bracelet. Instead, go to Etsy and look up customizable gifts. You can get her a print of you two with your pets or outside your home. You can take something that broke a long time ago and get it fixed.

# Activities to do together

I know COVID has made this one harder but if she is more of an activity person, get creative. Get tickets to an outdoor concert, an outdoor tour of a town or area near you, or even virtual cooking classes (yes, that is a thing).

# Nostalgia

If your girlfriend is anything like me, she looks back on her childhood and wishes she could relive it. Buy her something off eBay from her decade whether that be the ‘80s, ‘90s, or whenever. It could be a Barbie, a board game, a remaster video game, if you’re unsure of what her favorite things were as a kid, you could snoop through photo albums or ask her parents or siblings.

# Something she’s been complaining about

This is the easiest gift. If she is always complaining she can’t reach the top shelf, get her a step stool. If she hates that there is one room in your house that is super cold, get a portable heater. Listen to what she talks about and fix that.

# A fandom gift

Your girlfriend loves something. It could be Friends, it could be Marvel, or Disney, whatever it is, they make so many things for it. They have Disney princess waffle makers, Star Wars tee shirts, and Barbie PJs *these are the clothes that are acceptable as they are usually baggy and comfy*.

Search her fandom. Maybe it’s Harry Potter or Charmed or Grey’s Anatomy gift ideas. you’ll be surprised how many options you have.

# A plant

Not a flower. A plant. Flowers in a vase die, a plant is something you will care for together. Make sure it is safe for any pets she may have. You can name it, help her water it, and look up the best care practices. Doing this together will bring you closer too.

# A meal kit

Make her life easier with a meal kit. This way, she doesn’t have to do the shopping or the measuring or the worrying about what’s for dinner. You two can even cook the meal together and if you do the dishes, it’ll be a bonus.

# Heated blanket

Every girl I know always complains she’s cold. I’m sure your girlfriend is similar. A heated blanket, weight blanket, or even an essential oil-infused heating pad will keep her feeling toasty and warm.
