Sometimes thinking of Christmas gift ideas for women can be difficult.
Check out this question and answers from one person facing this dilemma.
Question by Landon Makrys: I can’t tell if this girl likes me… any help?
Ok, so this girl and I became very close friends pretty quick. But its been a long distance relationship, because we met eachother at a camp. She lives about 10 hrs from me. But we texted and called eachother to talk and stuff. Well, to make a long story short, I was always there for her through a lot of troubles she went through. Including a friends suicide, and just other stressful scenarios… She eventually wrote me a letter, back in october, because she hates texting. And I wrote her back and so forth… But lately I’ve also been under a lot of stress and when she tried to help me, I was selfish I didnt handle things well. Basically I kept apologizing and apologizing for it, and she was mad at me all throughout December. I told her I understood, and that I hadn’t been myself there for awhile (which was true). I told her that I need to take some time, basically clear my head and see where God wants this relationship to go (I am a Christian). So, I called her on Jan 1st we talked and had a great convo. She then called me that night again because I told her we might not ever talk again because I needed to sort things out and I wanted to make sure it was God’s will for us to be friends… well, she left me this huge long message about how much she loved me and was thankful for me, and that she hoped it wasnt the last time we talked. I could tell it was very emotional.
Also, a couple weeks later she left me another message stating that she almost burst into tears when she found out I might not be able to make it to the camp we both would attend this year…
But here’s my question… all this sounds like she may like me… But we really don’t talk that much anymore. However, the past few days she has posted these facebook webcam videos on my wall just telling me about her day or her project she just completed for school, or to just tell me Im awesome. She looks and acts excited in the vids… But other times its confusing… There are instances where it seems like she doesn’t want to talk, or maybe she’s just too busy… but then she says other things that makes me think she likes me.
Women are confusing. Anyway, sorry for the length. Its all a bit complicated as you can see. Oh, and she’s in highschool. I just started my 2nd semester at college.
And I don’t really want to ask her about it, unless I feel i have no other choice. I dont want to make things awkward for her or our friendship. We call eachother ‘best buddies’. And we have no problem telling eachother we love eachother. But shes just really hard to read… I know this probably sounds pretty pathetic, but I thought id rant about it and post it just to see what some opinions were.
I love her very much. She has always tried to be there for me when I needed someone. She is different. She is obviously very beautiful physically, but also internally. She is just so special in my eyes, and she has impacted my life very deeply. I sent her a valentines/late Christmas gift which consisted of some music, a couple poems to her, some origami roses i made, and some chocolate and a comedic screenplay i wrote. When she got it she posted another video on my wall saying that ‘it was the best… you’re the best!’. obviously she was appreciative. but its just confusing. she never texts me anymore, though i know she hates it. she did text me on valentines day before she got my gift, and it was right when she woke up. she basically just said wished me a good day and said she loved me. she hasnt called me on the phone just to talk in awhile though. So, right now I’m just letting things cook out. I havent talked to her in 10 days, and i havent heard from her either…
And so yeah, she knows i love her too. I’ve told her that I adored her, and I wrote her a poem back in December during all the mess. I asked her if she felt at all awkward and she immediately shot it down and said no. And then obviously, she said what she said in Jan… I also have told her “I love you so much”.
Although I have also told her that I don’t want a relationship. I just love her… Do you think she is confused? Maybe…
Another thing… Back in november, my birthday month, she said she was going to surpise me. Then in december she told me what it was, she was painting me something. I havent recieved it. And I dont know if she decided not to give it to me or what. And THAT doesnt make any sense. I cant ask her about it because that would come off as selfish. idk.

I have to agree with you, women are complicated but men are complicated too.. From what you said it sound like she did have feelings for you but it also sounds like she is just trying to be there for you through your hard times like you have with her. By you telling her you didnt want a relationship but then continue telling her you love her might have confused her too. I am going through a similar situation with my best guy friend. About your birthday gift you should just ask her. You say you haven’t talked to her in about 10 days, maybe you should call her. I think if you want to know how she feels about you, you should just ask her straight out. I don’t think she would think bad of it or act different. Women often are afraid of making the first move.

Christmas Gift Ideas for Women
You know, you’re both just in high school, you’re too far apart to have a normal relationship, and it’s tough keeping up communication over a long distance. You like her a lot, you like it that she’s your friend and she cares about you and you can turn to her if you need to. She likes you a lot, she likes that you care about her and she can turn to you if she needs to. You’re not in her everyday life and she’s not in yours, so it’s perfectly normal to get distracted by ‘real life’ and forget to send you messages sometimes. In fact, that’s probably a great thing about the relationship, for both of you – in a sense it provides an escape from the people and situations around you. My advice is to cherish this relationship as a special friendship, but there’s no point trying to make it serious if you live ten hours apart.
Good luck; I hope it works out however it’s meant to. Follow your heart and keep listening to God.
