Birthday preasent idea? Good or not...

Ok so my real good friend/interest's bday is coming up, its her sweet 16. MY idea is to make a scrap book, and on each page have a picture of us, and each page have something unique that would connect a time that we both shared...like i have these little sticky flower buds that she stuck all over me once...and at the end i was gonna put some empty pages and be like this is for the future moments...cheezy or good?

Does she know you're interested in her? Is she interested in you, as well?

If the answer to either of those questions is "no," then it would be awkward.

We are both interested in each other, we have expressed feelings about this and prayed about it, just holding back for now cause of distance between us.

Well, if you're "holding back," it might still be awkward, but not as much so, I don't think.

It really depends on the girl. You know her better than us. There's nothing wrong with it.

My girlfriend would have thought "err... ok?!" if I had done that before we started dating.

This girl, however, might think it's really sweet and become even more interested in you.

I think it's both cheezy AND good.

I think it's a great idea. I've gotten plenty of "cheesy presents" from my friends, But I loved em anyways. Go for it, just make sure you leave plenty of blank pages for the future

I think the more thought and effort one puts into a gift, the better. I think she'll like it. It's very thoughtful and sweet (and of course corny, but that's ok!)

i wish my friends would do something like that for me!!!

i think if she likes you...at all...she'll appreciate it...
now i'm not promising anything but it could be possible that she'll love it but then again she might hate it and burn it up....but i'm kinda leaning toward the loving it! haha!!!

but just...do what you think she'll like...it'll be awesome even for you...and you could still make it and if she doesnt like it...at least you'll have that book of memories!
