If you’ve just started dating, think small.
Not only will your new love not expect a large gift, but it may freak them out a little, which is definitely not what you want or need at this time of year. Try to find something small and meaningful for under $50. This could be something simple like an item of clothing, or you could be a little more personal and plan a candlelit dinner at home. Whatever you choose, be sure to look for deals, and don’t feel pressured to overspend.
George Clooney and Stacy Keibler should take this advice! The pair has only been together for a couple of months and shouldn’t worry about lavishing each other with expensive gifts. In fact, due to George’s infamously skittish nature, Stacy may want to go the dinner-at-home route, in order to appear appropriately aloof.

If you have crossed the one-year threshold, then you can splurge … a little.
Still keep spending to a reasonable amount, but try to find a gift that reflects your feelings for one another. Once you have reached the one-year mark, it is likely that you are in love, so go for something romantic, if all else fails, like a weekend getaway for two, or a small piece of jewelry.
This would be a good guide for Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, who recently celebrated their first year together. While this pair is awfully young to be worrying about jewelry, they obviously like vacationing together, and should feel comfortable expressing their feelings for one another. In doing so, they can be assured of one another’s affections, and their budding love will continue to bloom.
