Is it ok to give a braclet as a gift to a friend?

Question

I went on a vacation overseas, and saw a braclet that I liked so, I bought my four favorite ladies a braclet that is hand made. As a guy I feel close to them, but dont want to send any wrong message.

Should I give them this gift, or or just keep it when I actually start dating?

Answer 1

I would tell them what you told us.  Let all four of them know up front that you got them each the same gift.  That way they will know up front that it is not a romantic gift.  In fact you could elaborate it a bit.  Tell your four friends that you consider them all to be like sisters you never had.  

I have a similar story.  I used to do sales calls and one time I was canvassing a swap meet.  I saw some small fake bouquets of flowers and bought 5 of them and gave them to my favorite female co-workers.  They all new I was unavailable at the time and they were all like sisters to me.  Anyway, it became kind of funny.  You see, I neglected to tell them that I got them all the same thing.  They were all standing around talking that evening and one of them pulled out her bouquet and said look what Bill gave me!  And then the others were like hey - he gave me one too!  One of them made a joke of it and got us all laughing.  She played it off like I was trying to be some kind of a womanizing playboy that was trying to seduce them and have affairs with all of them at once.  They all pretended to act like jilted lovers and had me blushing beet red!

Hope it all works out for you!

Answer 2

Yes!! Its okay to give it to them. Girls love to be treated nicely, by giving them gifts is one way. Just make sure that they know you are not giving it to them, as a dating way...just yet. But that is really sweet of you =]

Answer 3

giving jewelry as a gift is very personal, it suggests you know them well enough to know how they would dress themselves. this suggest intimacy. if you give them the bracelet, make sure to make clear, like lingu06 said, what your perceived relationship with them is and that you bought the same thing for other friends.
