Can you give us an example of how this spreadsheet worked without divulging personal inforation you do not wish to share?

I would gladly make more fun of myself, but since it involves another person, I am somewhat reluctant to write about details. What I can say that it was a table full of numbers, and the result was a probability that my friend wanted to be my girlfriend. :D

What about a ficticious, hypotherical example?

:heart: i may be one a rare breed but i like the fact that my bf doesn't buy me gifts every five minutes to prove his love to me, i think that if yoiu are in a relationship with someone you truely love you shouldn't have to prove it to them by getting the stuff the quite frankly don't need.
I have bad hayfever so flowers are useless cos i'll end up crying and sneezing all the time.

when i do get gifts its usually useful stuff that i'm involved in choosing.

I like the fact that both of us are comfortable enough to not have to go into the spontanious gift giving.
Ok thats my little speech over!!

Baby :oops:

It's rather silly really! I'm all for gifting, but on the 'token' level, such as fresh flowers picked from your back yard, or homemade cookies, or cheese, or a card, or a pirated cd (I know I know I'm evil! :twisted: ): it honestly doesn't need to exceed $10, and often doesn't cost at all! *shrugs* It's the little things that count; save diamonds for your engagement!

Relationships are commonly all about give and take. Or give and get...

I don't see anything wrong with giving gifts, even to family members who have unconditional love for me. Not so much for their benefit, but for my own benefit, and I love their reactions. :)

I've tried giving gifts to pets... But it doesn't quite have the same effect... :?:

My Dad isn't that big on giving gifts on the standard gift giving occasions, but he does randomly come home and give my Mum some flowers he bought, or something similar; completely random out of the blue. That's how it should be done I think.

Aww! Your dad is so cute! Hehe, and poor you with the pets: they just aren't so appreciative, are they? :lol:
