gift giving

Although four out of ten people say they are worried about not being able to find the right presents for their loved ones, a new research shows that most people (96%) value the thought and intention behind the gift more than the gift itself.

Offering a carefully chosen gift that has meaning to your relationship with someone is a wonderful way to strengthen your relationship, and highlighting the importance of this special relationship can have great psychological benefits for both you and the recipient.

However, we know that choosing the “perfect gift” is not easy, especially when you look for something original and unique. A good gift is the one that shows that you have had the gift recipient in mind all along. A good method that can help you choosing the right holiday gifts is to make a list of the people you want to surprise and to consider the following suggestions:

  • Think of the most beautiful moments together
  • How did you meet? Would there be a gift that could make a significant connection to the moment you first met or started the relationship?
  • Think about whether there is an important date or place that you could relate to that gift by its significance.
  • Is there anything meaningful or funny to your loved one, a gift that no one else could understand without you explaining what it is?
