How Do Men Feel About Gifts
From Women?

What do you think? Do men like to be chased by women? Are men harder to impress than women? Chasing a man would depend on what you want to happen when you catch him. There is a certain type of male who does not mind being chased or kept by a woman and others who are not up for it.

A man’s nature is to be in the hunt. “This is a man’s world,” best describes his attitude, subtle or bold. Chances of him responding to your chase is slim. He will avoid you because he is not the one in control.

If you are giving a gift for a special occasion, he can handle that. Some men may think it is a girly thing, giving too many gifts. After a while they won’t enjoy it as much as the women. Unique gifts go over big, for example, if he is a golfer, a golfing journal. If he is a motorcycle rider, why not give him a motorcycle pen.

Putting notes in places where he might be surprised to pull one from, will surely bring a smile to his face. The note approach is more about thoughtfulness and doesn’t really infringe upon his manliness. Men are more open to receive gifts from women they are involved with, dating or married to.

The emotional male, usually raised by a woman may be more apt to get excited about receiving gifts from a woman, than the male raised with a father’s presence and influence in the home.

Men want to stay close to what their idea of being a man is because that is comfortable. The emotional response of receiving gifts may disappoint you but that is who he is. Women and men react different to the same acts. What excites him is your response to the gifts he gives you. That really makes a splash in his heart.

So focus on the unique for special occasions, don’t expect an over abundance of exuberance, know that you did tickle his heart.

If you are giving a gift to forge a stronger bond, or to hold a relationship together, it is just a matter of time, if that is all that is keeping it together.
