A gift for her?

Asked by Optimism101 (101points) June 6th, 2008 from iPhone

I have a friend that I like, and I have a gift that I want to give her just because. Its a shadow box, with a picture of her in the middle and 5 poems, one on beauty, courage, kindness etc.. Also with stickers of all her favorite things. The whole thought behind this is because i want to tell her there’s at least one person wholooks at her and sees those qualities and traits. My question is, will that reveal how much I like her, or is that a ” friend” gift?

If you are already very good friends it might be okay-

BUT if someone I was not close to gave me a gift like that I would be creeped out and think stalker….

Sorry, yeah we are good friends, known each other for like 2 years. We have good chemistry, but not sure if its the right time to see if we’re more than friends

I think you would have better luck if you talked about it before showing such an intimate gift. That is a gift that a girlfriend gets from her boyfriend. But to get it from a friend could spook her.

Until then maybe put it back into the secret room you have with all those pictures of her hanging everywhere and the black candles.

Seriously…seize the day and just tell her how much you like her. The worst thing she can say is no and you are already not going out with her. I know that it might ruin whatever relationship you have going now, but it will just get you more bitter the longer you hang out without telling her.

That is the most sweetest/thoughtful gift! I think you should let her know how you feel before you give her the gift. You only have one life! Go for it. Its so sweet of you, and I don’t see why she wouldn’t like it either way.

Wait a while. Test the waters before diving in. Such a gift has the potential to be very powerful, or very dangerous.

definite backfire potential.
