Boston

It Takes DAYS of Not Using Perfume Before You Stop Passing It On

So you really need to go cold turkey on the perfume.

But his carrying personal soap is a good idea to keep from smelling of Hotel soap!

I've been pondering this question since restructuring my site and have yet to come to any conclusion, so decided to poll you fine Bostonians.  

What is the general consensus about websites that include a "Gifts" page? Is it superfluous (or even a turn off) or is it helpful when doing your research because it tells you more about the lady? Has anyone ever brought a gift off of the list?

I've received requests for one in the past and am curious how hobbyists receive it overall...

Yay or nay my dears?

If anything it helps to get something nice for the lady without having to ask, which can be somewhat awkward at least for me.  

That being said, I prefer to get to know the ladies I spend time with so that I won't have to even open the wishlist. But it's still a useful tool to have.

I totally agree. I'll ignore the section if I don't intend to get you a gift. But if I see a lady a few times and like her , I'd like to get her a surprise instead of asking her.. Did that once and I liked the response I got.:-). So its a good idea to have that section.

Red or white wine? Most probably prefer a Jackson or two for a well delivered hour!

Generally, I think it helps, though the devil is on the details..  The P411 profile, where favorite drinks, perfumes, and flowers are listed, is also informative.  I may want to buy a modest gift, and knowing the woman's tastes is helpful.

I particularly like a wish list with a range of items, including gift cards, which are rather easy to buy.  Inclusion of some inexpensive and moderately priced items is useful.  The best wish lists I have seen are those that suggest charitable donations, such as an animal shelter or food bank.  The worst wish lists are those containing only very expensive and frivolous items.

Feel free to PM me if you want to discuss.  Best wishes!

Xoxo, KL

Hey Sara!  I am most impressed by the ladies who ask for donations to worthy causes or charities.  Modest gifts are fine, but requests for cars (I was going to say Bentleys, but thought better of it!), diamonds, etc., even in jest, seem a bit excessive.  A smart guy will figure out an appropriate gift on his own.

It is pointless to bring a gift that won't be appreciated, and giving out clothing sizes makes for practicality.

And how are we to know whether you like flowers, candies, or other items that some gals love and others detest?

I agree with others to skip the Ferraris.

Wish-listing a perfume preference will strongly suggest your routine use of fragrances. The third greatest risk to a hobbyist is the S.O. detecting fragrance residues on his clothing.  

Perfumes are designed to migrate, attach, cling, and persist for days. In the aftermath of a fragrant rendezvous, the married hobbyist is faced with three discreet-cleansing challenges: skin, undies and outerwear. Why burden him so?

Any provider would do well to adopt a fragrance-free lifestyle and to spotlight that on her website.

It's a turn off. I don't see girls who ask for gifts. Why complicate a simple visit?

've bought my ATF a few modest gifts off her list, and I'm glad it's on her web site. I don't expect I'll ever buy her the high end items, like the cars, but more power to her if someone will

I'd probably hesitate buying something from the wish list as a first time client. Gifts, in my opinion, would be more appropriate if the lady and gentleman know each other better after several visits.  If that's the case, I'll know what she likes just through normal conversation.

The gift then becomes more intimate and personal, not just something from a pick list.  Good question, Sara.
