Hello again. Just so as long as it comes right from the heart and given with love, you just can't go wrong.

You will know what feels right to give her, according to your feelings and creativity.

These other posters have given you some great ideas to start with.

Good luck and have lots of fun with it. Take care.

you could write her a letter saying how much she means to you and how much you love her, and the many ways you love her and the things you've shared. You could put together photos of you two if you have them, or a slideshow if you have digital copies and no printouts. You could put together a scrapbook or a book for her to fill up with things that you will accumulate in the future, like ticket stubs, photos, mementos, etc. You could draw her a picture if you're artistic, or write her a song or sing one or play one on the guitar for her if you're gifted in that way. If you can cook, then round up some ingredients to a simple yet nice recipe and have her over for a home cooked dinner and that be your gift. You could make her something if you can sew, like a little pillow or something with minimal fabric since you mentioned a tight budget. That will cost more than a dime though.

Also you could make her a card by making a collage of magazines of words and pictures, and then write your love note on the inside. It will be romantic and very personal, and she will see the time you put into both the imagery on the front and your message on the inside.

Just some ideas.

Moo's Mum agony auntWhat about making a heart shaped poem telling her what she means to you. Or a homemade heartshaped cake or homemade heartshaped chocolates.

She knows how i feel and in some way she returns those feelings. She knows that i am in love with her and she had told me she loves me to some extent. I tell her every thing i am feeling. We have kissed but she hasnt let it go further. The present has got to be very special because I am leaving in December for college.

If you're strapped for cash, and assuming that you two are in a real (two way) relationship, and it's acknowledged, creating something that's from the heart and meaningful should be fine. If you can write something that's appropriate, expressing your feelings (again, let's assume this is NOT the first time she's hearing these things!), and sharing with her that you're willing to be helpful to her and give her the gift of your time and focus should be enough.

If she understands money is tight a small token gift should be enough... you don't buy love with presents...

Hi there. You say that you are in love with her and have been for 3 years now, but does she know about it?

You say that she is wonderful towards you, but are you meaning in a general sense - that she treats you nice, as a friend?

OR, are you a couple?

You do not mention this.

Have you both talked together about how you feel towards each other? If not, perhaps it is time to do that.

The reason I say this, is you need to both know where you stand with each other. Unless you actually talk about how you feel, you are only making assumptions - which might be completely wrong. It does need to be clarified.

Finally, depending on what sort of relationship you have now, why don't you just give her a nice Christmas Card, that expresses the exact feelings you have for her. Then just see how she reacts when she reads it. Cards don't cost very much - a few dollars at the most.

Jewellery might be inappropriate if you are really not sure of her feelings for you.

You have told us how you feel, but apart from being wonderful to you, that doesn't really tell us what her exact feelings are towards you. Do you think (or has she said), that she is also in love with you? And for that matter, have you told her?

I just want you to be sure there are no misunderstandings or awkward moments. I don't want the bubble to burst.
