Romance is all about being in tune to your partner. And yeah, you've heard it a thousand times, we know, but that requires being a good listener. The best listener. A listener of heroic magnitude. It's really very simple. Over time, you'll pick up on hints as to what they'd love to own and what they'd treasure receiving from the person they adore. And then, you'll act on it. See? Simple.
Okay, okay, it's not always so cut-and-dry. Perhaps yours is a newer relationship, and you're still trying desperately to be cool. Perhaps they gave you a gift that absolutely knocked it out of the park last year, and you need to get on their gift-giving level. And most of all, you want them to feel loved, but you know a box of drugstore chocolates won't quite convey that message. To help, we've gathered 44 deeply romantic gifts and ultimately thoughtful gift ideas for the holiday season, from classics like gold jewelry to a few curve-balls.
