If you have ever started dating someone around November, then you know the awkwardness that is often associated with holiday dating. You like that other person and you've spent plenty of time with them, but what are the rules heading into the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons? With those two big dates still on the horizon, that is something that's certainly worth considering. You have to formulate a plan for holiday dating and get it out into the open.
The holidays are a time to be spent with the ones you love, not the ones that you like. When it comes time for Christmas and Thanksgiving, your best bet is to separate in favor of time with the family. If you have only been dating for a little while, then bringing that person around your family can add extra stress for everyone involved. Presents are being wrapped, food is being cooked, and everyone is a little bit out of their element. You will end up being stressed by your girlfriend or boyfriend's presence and they might not know how to act around your extended family. In short, this is a simple recipe for disaster. Unless you have been dating that person for a few months, then you should probably do your own thing on these important dates.
New Years, on the other hand, is a different story. After spending some valuable time with the family for Christmas, you should get together with that special someone to bring in the New Year. It seems like every person has their own little personal tradition that goes along with this exciting time of year, so try to share it with that other person. New Years Day represents the best of new beginnings which, in a way, is very symbolic of a new relationship. Don't be afraid to steal that kiss when the ball finally drops on the New Year.
Another important question regarding holiday dating is gift giving. What should I get him or her for Christmas? The answer to this question depends upon how long you have been dating. If you have only been dating that person for a short while, then a less expensive gift is appropriate. Expensive gifts put pressure on your girlfriend or boyfriend and create an awkward situation if they don't purchase something of similar value. If you opt for something a little bit less expensive, then you can help to keep the situation light and merry. If you have been dating that person for a year or more, then Christmas is the time to give something nice. A nice piece of jewelry is a good idea is you're purchasing for a girlfriend. If you are purchasing for a boyfriend, then ask to find out what he might like, as guys generally have different tastes depending upon their hobbies.
If you keep in mind these simple holiday dating tips, then your new relationship should survive the holidays. It is important not to put too much pressure on yourself or force things during this time. Let everything occur naturally and you'll be pleased with the results.
