So you've bagged yourself a (post-Covid) meet/social with the person/couple you've lusted after for ages. You know this is your one opportunity to impress. We've read already about the coffee and home made hot apple tart with custard brought by a kind lady to her date. You need to stand out from the crowd so what will you bring as a gift? (NOTE: All in the interests of research ) |

IDK, it would never occur to me to bring a gift or to expect one either for that matter. Turn up, be on time, and be the person you describe in your profile is good for me. |

My humble humility. . And a teddy bear. And lollipops. And a coffee grinder. And a passport (You never know). And Good manners. And MnM selection boxes. And a flare gun in case of bad weather. As you can see I've given it a lot of thought...x |

All amazing ideas folks
I think it's a nice idea. As I said on the other thread, one lad (now a friend) brought mugs with his own drawings of my pink shoe and J's boot printed on them. A lovely thought and I'm now reminded of him when I see the mugs in the cupboard. Kids think we won them in a raffle |

OP great thread
It is really depends. In the past I always brought some handmade sweets, an exotic plant, bottle of wine
I think when meeting so great personalities like Mr Bog M, SeanBelfast or Kaizer (that would be really challenging as he is meat eater!) I would bring something unique, they never get a chance to eat plus a bottle of whiskey limited edition

Tbh, I don't think it's fair to place those kind of expectations on people. Some people are simply good at that kind of thing, others aren't, it's no indication of character in my book. |

I agree Casey plus someone giving me gifts the first time I meet them would make me feel awkward almost like more is expected .It is different if it is someone I know well or if I was going to someones home .But I'd never go to someones home on a first meet made that mistake once and never will again . |

I rarely if ever bring gifts when visiting friends or family and would never consider it on a fab meet.
I know lots of people who always turn up with cakes and bottles of wine etc when they visit and I don't give them much credit for those as they know I can't eat the cake and I don't drink so it's just done out of habit and to make them feel better.
Fab gifts especially from or for someone I don't really know or I'm meeting for the first time just wouldn't sit comfortably. |

Depends on the build up and conversations shared before meeting. Like certain interests may have been shared as in any normal conversation so a small gift that fits in with that might be suitable or thoughtful. |
