It's that time of year again the holiday season. Christmas is approaching pretty soon and the question has been raised, "What do I get my significant other for Christmas?" I can't give you a personalized gift, but I can give you a generalized list that you can make your own idea off of. There are many different types of gifts for the different personalities. Regardless of what you get them, they will love it because it shows you put thought and effort in to it. If you can add sentimental value with a sweet note that will only add to the gift.
1. You might think that a necklace for your girl is too generic, but I guarantee you if you get her a cute necklace that shows how much you love her that she will wear it all the time (and you get to smile every time you see her wearing it).
2. Does your girlfriend love comfort? If so then fuzzy socks and a fuzzy blanket are the way to go to win you big points.
3. You know that one book that your girlfriend talks about all the time, if you want to see her face light up, then this is the gift for you.
4. Chocolate is the key to most girls heart, and if she is a romantic then flowers and chocolate with a sweet note written on the card is the key.
5. If your girl is into fashion/makeup then allowing her to pick out makeup and buying it for her will go a long way.

1. Now for your boyfriend they might wear the same t-shirts all the time, getting them a new one for them to wear all the time with their favorite show/movie/game on it is the one for you.
2. Is your boyfriend a gamer? If so you could get him that game he's been dying for, or you could make him a snack box with all of his favorite snacks in it so he doesn't have to pause his game.
3. A Bluetooth speaker, or some earbuds/headphones are the perfect gifts for your music loving boyfriend.
4. Along with that if he loves music you could make him a mix tape of all his favorite tunes.
5. Are sports your boys thing? If they are then getting him some sports cards and a nice hat are definitely the way to go.
Some other gift ideas for your boyfriend or girlfriend are....
