Men, be prepared with all your heart ...!
Men, be prepared with all your heart ...!

Christmas is a big event for couples. I'm looking forward to thinking about and getting gifts exchanged afterwards as well as on dates.

But how much should I prepare even though it is neither a birthday nor an anniversary? Instead of such a troubled man in the world, the marriage activity application "Match Alarm" that "delivers an encounter with one person of the opposite sex every morning at 8 o'clock" gave an answer.

According to a survey conducted by Match Alarm on 744 single women in their 20s and 30s, the most common "amount of gifts expected from lovers at Christmas" was "10,000 yen to less than 30,000 yen" 46. %. Next, "5,000 yen to less than 10,000 yen" was 35.5%, which is almost concentrated in these two price ranges.

By the way, looking at each generation, it seems that the expected amount of money tends to increase as the age increases.

The most common opinions (partial) of those who answered "10,000 yen to less than 30,000 yen" are as follows.

・ "I get a special feeling" (female / early 30s / Kanagawa prefecture)
・ "I think the higher the price, the more I feel!" (Female / early 20s / Miyagi Prefecture)
・ "I'm disappointed when it's cheap" (female / early 30s / Tokyo)
・ "I'm happy with that much ring and necklace." (Female / mid-30s / Fukuoka Prefecture)
・ "Because what you want is about the price" (female / early 20s / Osaka)

How about. I don't think the amount of the present = her value, but what is Christmas in the first place ...? It seems to be a feeling.

On the other hand, many respondents who answered "less than 10,000 yen" commented that "feelings are more important than the amount of money", "because it is difficult to give back", and "I am happy just to receive it". I feel a little relieved at her like Our Lady.

However, if you get lost, it's better to ask it rather than rushing with a belief. It's also a good idea for two people to buy matching items or go out to buy what they want.

Have a nice Christmas!
