What gift should I give when I meet the girl's parents and elders for the first time?
QuestionerQuestioner:06-20 14:23
My girlfriend is going to take me to meet her parents. I'm very happy and really want to leave a good impression on my future father-in-law, mother-in-law and other elders. Please recommend some gifts.
Best answer

The importance of gifts should be appropriate. Generally speaking, gifts that are too light are not very meaningful. However, gifts that are too expensive will not impress you very much. If the other party refuses to accept the gift, you have already spent the money and will have many troubles. Therefore, the importance of gifts must be based on whether the other party can accept it happily. Before giving a gift, you should understand the identity, hobbies, and national customs of the recipient, so as to avoid trouble. Ask your girlfriend about the hobbies or taboos of the elders. Gifts should be meaningful. Gifts are carriers of emotions. Any gift expresses the intention of the giver, such as reward, asking for favors, and keeping in touch. Therefore, the gift you choose must be consistent with your intentions and make the recipient feel that the gift is precious and extraordinary. The best gift should be selected according to the other party's interests, meaningful but not conspicuous. Therefore, when choosing a gift, you should consider its ideological, artistic, interesting, commemorative and other factors, and strive to be original and unconventional.


1. Health gifts:No one will refuse health, and the same goes for the girl's parents, so your first choice is health. Giving them these gifts not only shows your attentiveness but also your filial piety.

2. Small appliances:When giving gifts to older people, be careful not to be flashy, especially when you go there for the first time, and don't show off your wealth. Giving some household appliances for daily use is not only practical but also face-saving.

3. Fine food:Giving food is very down-to-earth and easy to get closer to each other. The most important thing is that no one will hate food, so some red wine and tea for the father-in-law, and some bird's nest for the mother-in-law, it's perfect.
