What Should You Get Your Significant Other?

In This Article:

It is December and the time of many holiday celebrations. Many holidays in particular, such as Christmas, traditionally expect people to exchange gifts to demonstrate that they care. Though most people know that gifts are not the main purpose of the holidays, we still enjoy the feeling of receiving a gift, and, most importantly, giving a gift. So, if you are in a relationship or about to form one, you are probably wondering what you should get your significant other. Well, here are some ideas.

1. Framed Picture

Giphy

If you are contemplating over the first holiday gift you will give to your significant other, then a picture is something that is simple and symbolic all in one. Most people do not have physical pictures the way they used to, so getting a picture that symbolizes your relationship bond and having it framed, shows your significant how much you care for them and the relationship as a whole.

2. Ugly Sweater

Giphy

People have turned holiday sweaters into a fad, so getting a piece of clothing that is both silly and light-hearted may be just what your significant other needs. It is an instant storyteller, and she/he will always think of you when they wear it.

3. Special Ornament 

Giphy

Everyone wants to decorate their tree with festive and creative arrangements, and getting an ornament that is special and meaningful for your significant other may provide them with solace. Ornaments come in all shapes and sizes, so there are a variety of options to find one suited for your significant other.

4. Chocolate & Candy

Giphy

During the holidays, many people develop a sweet tooth, so gifting your significant other with their favorite treats or holiday-themed edible arrangements may be all they ever wanted. And if you are involved with someone who is also very giving, she/he may share them with you.

5. Housewarming Gift

Giphy

When many people have housewarmings, there is always at least one thing that never made the cut. And if you know your significant other the way you should, you will know exactly what they may still want for their home. And if you share a home together, I am sure there was a constant message of "we really should get..."

6. Concert or Game

Giphy

If your significant other is really into music or sports, then getting them tickets to see their particular interest in action may be the best gift you can give them. Many people follow music and sports on tv or on their mobile devices, but nothing compares to being physically right there among others who share the same adoration as they do.

7. Jewelry 

Giphy

It would be unfair not to mention jewelry. Do not be surprised if your significant other starts playing "Santa Baby" to inspire your gift. Jewelry will forever be a thing that many people do not mind receiving, and it is something they can wear all the time. The piece of jewelry you decide on depends on the nature of your relationship. Maybe you will get her earrings, because she loves wearing earrings. Maybe you will get him a chain, because it reminds him of something. Or, maybe you will get a ring, because it is time to pop the question.

8. Holiday Card

Giphy

Nothing compares to a nice holiday card. There is a reason Hallmark does so well in the card department. People enjoy reading cards. Giving your significant other a meaningful card with a personalize message in it, can mean the world to them, especially if she/he prefers inexpensive and expressive gifts. Sometimes a card is all your significant really wants, because it reflects you. In other words, your significant other may be letting you know that "All I Want For Christmas Is You."

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
