problem w/ jewelry is that it could have a negative effect if used too often and she'd think that no love went into the decision. really it depends on the girl...
i do not think romance will come to you with giving a gift to a lady... rather be true to your self and never lie... when you can do that and love a woman and she loves you the same than you will gain romantic joy just be you
Hey MrMonkey3, I don't think there's anything wrong with asking the question here. For myself, I'd prefer receiving jewelery. It doesn't have to be something expensive though as it's the thought that counts.
Although both of my past girlfriends liked flowers. Cheap and sweet. Best on a date. Jewelry is just a tad expensive. Unless you're freaking rich. BUT, hypothetically jewelry would be better if you're poor, and saved up money. Shows your girlfriend that you've got a certain amount of dedication.
