What should I buy as a present?(see details)

1 Answer

Answer :

A book or a book voucher. Maybe there is something you do have in common – perhaps something you both chat about or something – there must be some reason she invited you. She sounds like a pretty interesting person to get to know – especially if you are surrounded by other 15 year olds who are only interested in make up and clothes!!!! Get her something she seems to like – maybe a nice journal or notebook and funky pens or beads or something. Have fun and feel glad she invited you.
