Default Re-giving the exact same present you gave to someone else...

What are people's thoughts on this? Do you ever do this?

A couple of years ago I got/did a somewhat creative Christmas gift for a girlfriend and I'm thinking of doing the exact same thing for the one I have now. However, I do feel sort of strange as it seems a lot less personal to do this. Have any of you ever done this?

That is not re-gifting. Re-gifting is when you give somebody a present that somebody else gave you. Hence, you never bought a present. The OP is wanting to buy the same thing for this girl that he bought for another girl a few years ago.

well you don't tell the girl you are giving the same thing. Did anyone see that Frasier where Martin is gonna give his old wife's wedding ring to Ronnie then ends up buying a used ring with some random inscription on it?

as long as there is no danger of this girl finding out that you did the exact same thing for another girl, then go for it.

there is absolutey nothing logically wrong with your plan or traditional re-gifting........
unless she finds out what you did....because logic will have nothing to do with her response.......
play it safe, don't
