. . . something whimsical, that can have more sentimental, than material
value, and that reflects something you treasure in her, and in your
relationship. Something that is "all about meaning". That way, you stay
clear of the "irresponsibility" trap, and still show some measure of your
feelings for her. Make it completely "gratuitous"--not done out of any
notion of obligation, but simply because you care for her--and I mean
genuinely so, in your heart, not as a rationalization in your head.
That's my $0.02, anyway; and based on experience.
Some of the most treasured gifts I have given my wife, came when we
could not afford much, at all; and actually cost very little. Sure, there
are some pricey "treasures", too; but the spirit in which they were
given and received has determined their true value.
