Okay but seriously giving shiny rocks to girls works pretty well. Not like jewelry or gemstones, literally just nice rocks.

Have you ever just sat and admired a well-tumbled stone? They're pretty to look at.

Bonus, if your person is the right type of crafty, they can turn those nice rocks into jewelry! I have a couple pieces my wife has made because they were just interesting stones she's found she thought I'd like.

Men, on the other hand, can be impressed by the gift of a good stick.

Well I mean... Not exactly limited to girls. Who doesn't like a nice shiny rock? Nobody, that's who. Show me one person who claims to not have at least one good rock somewhere in their house. Can't do it can yeh? Didn't think so.

I got a rock last weekend that I'm still pumped about. I'm letting it just sit on top of my coffee table.

Edit: rock

One of my exes gave me a pebble, and said something about penguins giving a partner a pebble and they keep it for life. Pretty sure I lost it after a couple of weeks, and found a similar looking one and she never caught on ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My wife is big time into labradorite. It’s cool as hell, when it catches the light you can see gleams of blue or orange amongst the green. I actually recently got her a labradorite engagement ring and wedding band to replace the cheap, simple silicone ring she wears because of her job that she’ll be leaving in the near future.
