Okay so I had NO IDEA what to get my boyfriend of almost a year for Christmas. But he's really religious, so i got him a little $10 woven braclet with a cross (its not girly, or anything. haha). But, he keeps dropping hints that he's getting me some really expensive jewelry. Should i get him something more?
My dad said guys dont take that personally. They just think its the thought that counts, and he wont mind at all. But, I still feel really bad about it. Do you think i should spend a little more?

He'll be happy to see that you got a gift that means something special. Don't worry about it. Merry Christmas! [ missbananafontana's advice column | Ask missbananafontana A Question ]

I don't think you should worry about spending more $$$. You should maybe try making him a nice scrapbook. Or, a tiny book about all of you "Remember the time we..." moments. That's just pretty much a little notebook of cute moments you shared together. And to top it off, write a card. A warm, heartfelt, sincere card. Since he's not materialistic, I believe he'll adore any of these gifts PLUS the bracelet you got him.
Good Luck!
Happy Holidays!
