What to give a man on his 35th birthday - practical tips on choosing a gift, ideas, what not to give
At every age a man has certain hobbies and preferences, and the anniversary of the 35th birthday is something special because at this age most men already have a certain status in society, have formed goals, opinions and lifestyles, but at the same time he is still very young, full of strength and energy.
Therefore, when thinking about what to give a man for 35 years, first of all, you should pay attention to the significance and functionality of the presentation, taking into account the individuality of the particular person.
What to pay attention to when choosing a gift
In fact, the choice of gifts for men is huge, especially for the thirty-five year old. Themes and uses of gifts, as well can be absolutely different, the main thing is to guess with a gift to a particular man.
It is not so difficult, if you have the slightest idea about the way of life, hobbies and preferences of the hero of the day, in addition, it is necessary to take into account the degree of proximity: boss, colleague, friend, beloved man or relative.
This directly affects the cost, nature and level of intimacy of the final choice.
What not to give
Before you visit the store to purchase a gift, even for a young man you know well, from the list of suggested ideas should be crossed out such:
- Souvenirs and art objects. Such gifts are often useless even for women, and what to say about men, in all preferring comfort and practicality. Therefore, so that such a gift would not collect dust on the shelf, would not disappoint the recipient and was not, as often happens with unnecessary things, transferred, it is better not to buy it;
- Gifts with a hint. Sometimes for one person quite acceptable and practical things can be perceived by another person in a completely different way, as if they have a certain meaning. Among these things could be: personal hygiene products - a hint of lack of self-care, a gym membership and floor scales - an indication of excess weight;
- Perfume. You can give a scent only to a very close person, and it is necessary to know about his preferences in fragrances, and preferably about a particular, long-loved toilet water;
- Supplies for shaving. Despite its practicality and popularity, on his birthday, especially on the anniversary, you should avoid such a surprise. It is trivial, and will give the opportunity to understand that special attention to the gift was not paid;
- Underwear and socks - one of the most budgetary options. Surely not only will not bring pleasant emotions, but also will cause disappointment - men also like surprises, and it is desirable that they carry not only such a care, but also a pleasant positive meaning, saying that the life of the hero of the occasion is interesting and they know about his tastes;
- Gifts of an intimate nature. Acceptable only from the woman you love, otherwise risk being misunderstood, useless or even insulting;
- A shared, family trip or trip. On a festive day, there is a specific birthday boy - personally for him and there should be a gift;
- A houseplant. Most likely, where the vase was put right away, there it will remain for a short time, unless of course it was specially ordered by the birthday boy himself;
- Interior items. Men attach little importance to the elements of decoration, so it is unlikely that some figurative shelf, a mirror in a frame or a carpet will be to their taste.
These items should be permanently eliminated from the possible options, especially since the list of recommended gifts is much longer. Of course, here, as in many other things, there may be exceptions, but they apply only to very close people.
