So I've been planning on getting a Christmas gift for my crush all month. Except for one problem : I don't know what she likes. Before you say anything like, "DUDE HOW DO YOU LIKE SOMEONE WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING WHAT THEIR INTERESTS ARE!?" It's because I'm pretty much a shy, quiet person in real life. Well, I'm not that shy anymore, more so just quiet since I don't really know what to say to other people since my interests and almost everyone else's are contrast. However, I'm just super shy once I start liking a girl that it takes a lot in my to start a conversation since I'm afraid of saying something that would throw her off.
It started as a simple plan really. I asked my cousin who's best friends with her what she's interested in. She didn't know, but she said she'd ask her for me without telling her that it's me getting a present from her. After a week, she couldn't get a single word out of Anadale (Crush) because she magically knew it wasn't my cousin that was getting a gift for her and that she didn't want a gift. While that kind of put me down, I thought, "Well, she may not want a gift, but I want to get her one anyway."
I also asked another friend to help out, but if that doesn't work, I've set my mind to this, doing what I should have done in the beginning. Asking her myself. It's crucial that I find out tomorrow since our break starts around friday of next week (My Highschool is in a "District in Need" and doesn't believe in giving tons of days off) and since my brother is going to New York on the weekend and I'm coming along to buy the gifts.
So this is it. Gonna do this. Hopefully I won't get shot down or anything.

It might be kinda awkward if you don't know her that great and you get her a gift, but go for it by all means.
Don't start showering her with stuffs though.
Waste o' moneyz.
AND BUY SOMETHING...
NOT EXPENSIVE.

Cut off your pinky and give her that to show your utmost devotion.
Just go with the mop and get her a stuffed animal.
I guess you can try Build-A-Bear workshop for a "personalized" teddy bear.

I know what you mean, but I still want to go through with it (Of course, I'm not going to go do it in an obsessed fashion). I figure that if I can't find out, I'll just by something like a teddy bear. Nobody can resist a teddy bear.

I gave my friend a teddy bear and it took her a week to find out I put a boiled egg inside :)

^You should have put a raw egg in it or duran fruit.
Off topic: Your thread title makes you sound like those people threatening to jump off buildings.

What kind of flower? And how do I keep it intact until 7th period without a locker!? D:
Edit : I actually would jump off buildings just for the hell of it
as long as it's not too tall or I have a parachute or somewhere safe to land on.

Not roses, those are too serious (and expensive, dammit). But not those tacky blue dyed flowers, either.
And... to keep flowers intact... without a locker? That's tough.
Give it to her some other time. Or keep it in a box with some wet paper+plastic wrapping the bottom of the stem, but that's kinda iffy because they could get crushed.

Oh I love doing this. Although now I give kusudamas since most flowers are too easy :I
