December is the Worst Month for Single Females

If you are lucky enough to be in a new relationship December is like walking on eggshells. Should you ask your new guy to the company, family, or friend's Holiday Party? What is the most appropriate gift, you don't want to do too much or too little. What if anything will he do for you? What will his expectations be?

Let's face it even men with money get strange or cheap at the holidays. I think it's their fear of getting it wrong. For others I think that the holiday's and the whole gift thing represent commitment and some are just not willing to go there. You would get a gift for a good friend wouldn't you? So why wouldn't you do at least that much for someone that you are intimate with? Instead of communicating their fears or concerns most break it off until after Valentines Day! Speaking for myself I never want a man to go broke shopping for me. I feel most special when the gift represents that the giver has paid attention too your likes, dislikes, favorite colors etc.

If you are truly without a companion all of the holiday movies about family and couples doing extraordinary things under adverse circumstances for each other magnifies the fact that you have no one! And the Christmas Carols, although I like "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" it is one of the saddest for me to hear. Not to mention the Gift Commercials! Who get a Diamond in their stocking anyway isn't that for Barrettes, Batteries, Chap Stick and Chocolates? I wonder what the actual gifts are for these people, small islands in the Indian Ocean? The truly alone single has the Party dilemma too. You don't want to go alone, and you don't want to take just anyone with you just in case you meet someone there. If you are one of the only single women there and you show up alone looking festively hot the men aren't allowed to talk to you for very long and the other woman wont.
