With the Valentines Day fast approaching Men and Women are on the look out for gifts to give their valentine. Gifts have the power to make or break a relationship. So be cautious while choosing a gift for your loved one. A bad gift can offend your guy. I am giving below a list of ten worse gift ideas for Men. Anyways, if you want your boyfriend or husband running for his life then put these items on top of your list.
1. Sex Related Products: Products like a Premature Ejaculation Cream conveys the message that he doesn't rise to the occasion and men are not going to like it. Same applies for devices like penis pumps or erectile quality monitor. Nothing will make your man feel insignificant as a device telling him how disappointing he is in the bedroom.
2. Mouthwash: Halitosis is a bad condition. Telling a Boyfriend that his mouth smells bad can be a major turn off. You could look for other ways to make him use the product but giving him that is poor taste.
3. Fitness Products: So you want him to lose weight? But this is not the time to remind him that he is fat. So keep away from Diet Food Recipes, Gym Memberships (unless you would be there too), diet pills, fitness equipments, yoga DVD etc unless you want him unhappy.
4. Gift Cards: So you do not have an idea what your Guy like and gifted him a Gift Card instead so that he can pick up what he likes? There can be nothing more insulting than show that you do not know what he like or dislike. Instead of picking up a gift card for him use your judgment to get him a gift. Go ahead and buy, make or do something that is a reflection of your true feelings and your relationship. He will appreciate that you took the time out and cared enough to choose a gift for him.
5. Flowers: Flowers are too girly that majority of men hate them as gifts. Men like gifts that make him feel masculine. Flowers and Teddy Bears are not meant for them.
6. Self Help Books: If your Guy is in need of a self help book let him buy on his own. Guys generally don’t like other people buying such stuff for him no matter how well intentioned they are.
7. Clothes that do not fit: If you are unsure of your partner’s size and likings in relation to color, cut or fabric do not risk buying clothes for him. Clothes too big or small can be a major gift disaster. The same rule applies for Perfumes or Personal grooming products too. Do not gift him unless you are sure that he would like it.
8. Don’t frame yourself: It is good that you want him to remember you always. But gifting him a photo frame with your picture alone or a coffee mug carrying your picture is a bad idea. Let him have you in his heart instead.
9. Re Gifts: Re gifting things which you had gifted your last boyfriend which is returned to you after you broke up is a bad idea as gifts. Also do not give gifts that were meant for someone else.
10. Video games: Men would hate me for telling you this. Men can get quite addicted to video games. So unless you want your guy to ignore you and have no time for you stay away from buying him video games.
Avoid this list of 10 Bad or Worse Gift ideas for Men when picking up a gift for your man for his Birthday or Valentines Day. Men are not very picky when it comes to presents and will be grateful for whatever you give them. But ensuring that you give him the right gift can give your relationship a boost.
Yes, These all are Gifts Men would hate from his Valentine. Thumbs up Anamika!
haha.. Mouthwash says it all huh. Excellent article. No man will like these :P.. Thanks. Voted up!
thanks for these pointers.
Good points. :) They also don't want a scrapbook of all your lovey moments together. Men just don't get into that sentimental stuff. Love your article!
well crafted
I agree to flowers. But why not try to give a Bonsai tree plant. It might be very interesting for him for a change. Just a good suggestion. But the article is really perfect. I like it
The one thing I have an issue with is gift cards. There are times when it can show consideration. If you buy him one for his favorite restaurant or some place you know he frequently enjoys going to is ok. It's not like picking up a gift card from walmart. However, some men do prefer gift cards. It all depends on the man. Getting to know him and displaying that you're paying attention is much more important to show in your gifts.
