Holiday Dating: Finding The Right Gift For Your Sweetie
Dating relationships are tough enough, but finding the perfect holiday gift for your latest flame can be even tougher. Sending the wrong gift can also send the wrong message. And if you've only been dating for a short time, you may even not yet know all of your sweetie's interests and passions and the gift that will please them most.
And if you've only been dating a short time, should you give a gift at all? If sparks are mutually flying, go ahead and be as romantic as you feel. On the other hand, you may want to tread lightly if you're not sure where you stand. Sometimes an overly romantic gift can create awkwardness when it's not reciprocated. It's hard to go wrong with cologne. Something that shows a special effort can also be a nice gesture. For example, homemade cookies in a decorative tin or you can play DJ and burn a custom mix CD.
Still don't know where to start? Here are some ideas --
For Her
* A funky & casual watch with changeable bands
* Bubble bath and soaps in a matching scent
* An assortment of gourmet chocolates
* Luxurious cashmere blanket
For Him
* A trio of gourmet coffees and a mug in his favorite color
* Cigars
* Leather day planner or case for his iPod
* Tickets to his favorite sporting event (but you get to come along)
For Both of You
* Champagne in a bucket engraved with your love poem
* Candlelit dinner out on the town
* Sign up for dance lessons, and enjoy an entire month of cha, cha, cha
* An engraved ice cream scoop, assortment of toppings and a quart of your favorite flavor

Dalton or even the the perfect diamond from Blue Nile.com. And for him? He'll get just what he wants like a scarf to keep him warm on winter days from Barneys New York, a sporty new watch from Fossil.com or a soft sweater from Land's End. Your honey will have fun choosing from these and thousands more gifts ... all the while remembering you gave this wonderful gift experience.
Sending the right gift not only expresses your affection, but can also set the stage to answer the eternal dating question, "Where is this relationship going?"

BONUS : Hot And Sexy Mature Women Dating Younger Guys
Mature women dating younger guys is a trend that has just started to pick up steam, but it is not going away any time soon. In fact, more than a quarter of todays brides are older than their grooms.
Celebrity culture has played into this in part. Many well known actresses such as Demi Moore, Madonna, and Susan Sarandon have married younger men. These women have put their stamp of approval on the mature women dating younger men concept.
But, society has changed as well. Not too long ago, women married young and marriages were for life. The nuclear family unit was the basis for society and anything that deviated from this norm was shunned. Therefore, there werent many opportunities for mature women dating younger men.
But, since divorce has become more prevalent, there are any number of women in their late 30s and 40s who are looking for partners. When they look at men their own age, they often dont like what they see.
First of all, men who are in this age range are caught up in their own careers and interests. They are less likely to be supportive of a womans career. Because women have moved into managerial and entrepreneurial roles, they sometimes need partners who can be the man behind the woman. Men their own age are reluctant to take on this role.
Also, mature women dating men their own age are likely to be disappointed in the sex. A woman peeks sexually in her late 30s. Well into her 40s, she is in her sexual prime. A man, however, begins to loose steam at this age. Hes just not able to keep up with her surging needs.
Younger men find these women, newly confident in their sexual prowess, to be very attractive. Mature women know what they want in bed and can communicate that to their lovers.
Mature women dating younger men can also provide the guys with a sense of financial stability that allows the men to take risks with their careers. One younger man was able to pursue a career as a concert pianist because his older woman lover was able to cover their living expenses while he became known in his field. Other men have been able to pursue graduate school or start businesses due to the financial support of their older girlfriends.
Women have, for years, benefited from the generosity of older partners. Now, men are able to do so as well.
If you want to meet a person outside your own age range, you have to go where they are. For instance, a mature woman wanting to date a younger man may want to join a gym. A younger man looking for a professional woman might join a tango class. There are also places for such couples to meet online. The term for this is cougar dating.
Expect that the trend of mature women dating younger men to grow as societys expectations about sex roles evolve.
