How much is too much to spend?
Hello! Im a twenty one year old female and my boyfriend is twenty two. On December 11th of this year, he and I will be celebrating our six month anniversary. On December 23rd of this year, he will turn twenty three. Then Christmas is two days later. He always says that he hates when his birthday is, that even though he doesn't relish in attention, his birthday never gets the attention he thinks it should deserves. Especially this year since it's his lucky birthday (23 on the 23rd) so I want to get him something for his birthday and Christmas and maybe even because our anniversary was two weeks prior as well.
We've exchanged I love you's and he's met my entire family, his family even told him that for the holidays they want me to fly to where he's from with him so they can meet me, so he and I are pretty close. We have tickets to see my favorite band in six months, his family all resides in Romania and he wants to fly in for a visit soon and asked me to go along, so he and I are planning future endeavors together with the mere hope of both of us still being in love and wanting to be together ("hope" because I can't predict the future, but I can darn well try hard to make forever a possibility for us).
He and I were talking about all of the concerts we've ever been to, I told him one of the better ones that I was completely enthralled the entire time was the Blue Man Group and he said that is one group he always wanted to see live and it turns out, that night when I looked to see if they were coming in my area, they are touring about an hour from where we live so I was going to get those for his birthday for us to both go and see and enjoy while spending time together.
He also has fallen in love with the record player I keep in my room. He loves looking through my collection and when we go to flee markets together, he always looks at the records and tells me to buy them or asks if he buys them, if he can play them in my record player. So for Christmas, I want to get him one - I have one picked out already, in my shopping cart online for only fifty bucks and a five star review.
I'm just apprehensive because I don't know if that is "too much" to spend on our first Christmas together. So, give me your input please, how much you spend on your significant others and whatnot. Please, keep in mind though about our anniversary and that I want to get him something for both his birthday and Christmas. Thanks!

If the spending of the money isn't a hardship on you, then go for it. Sometimes the most perfect gifts are the one you put thought into, listening and watching to see what a person is interested in and then purchasing it for them. I say go for it.
