Alrite girls need your opinion...
If she's really your friend, she'll completely understand you don't have $1500 for a dog. The stuffed dog is adorable and I think very thoughtful and sensitive (I know you guys hate when we say that. lol) Most women (I agree with racerchick) are not into expensive things. I, personally, am not into jewelry. I'd prefer to get tools. For Valentine's Day I asked for a torque wrench. (yea, I know, I'm weird)
If you really want to score points, just get some cheese, crackers, maybe wine or beer and have a little picnic somewhere nice. That's extremely simple and inexpensive and in my opinion is a million times better than the fanciest restaurant. Good luck!

I buy buds "male or female" beverage of choice,
I buy buds "Male or Female" a steak occasionally,
I throw an extra steak on the Bar-B for buds "male or female" all the time,
For my bud's kids, yes I do buy them stuffed animals and other toys all the time.
For my wife and kids, yes same thing except ussually spend more.
I won't buy my male buds a stuffed animal and if they wanted me to I probably wouldn't be buds with them much longer.
I refuse to treat my female buds any different, so I won't buy them a stuffed animal either! I have never discreminated in my relationships unless... It already IS intimate.
If my buds need something, then I'll "help" them get it or "Help" them make it anyway that I can.
NO offense to anyone but if I have to buy your friendship with toys, beer, steak or anything else.. Then hit the road! I don't need any help spending my money. Wife and especially I do a great job at that by ourselfs!
Technically I did a great job of it before my wife came into the picture.

Heh, I did this exact same thing for a friend (girl) some years back. Of course, I really was wanting more, but hey.
I'd get her the stuffed version and take her out for dinner or something. If she's not pleased with that then it needs to end. True friends understand things work out that way sometimes. My .02

She may be impressed if you remember the Maltese idea on her birthday. I'd buy her a stuffed one (not a real stuffed one but a fake one, made in China kind lol), and if she has a sense of humour she'll understand. Give her a blank birthday card and write a cheesy line... Have it say something like....
"The Maltese at the pound ate my wallet, so I could only get you a stuffed one."
She will laugh and appreciate it. I know I would. I'm no gold digger.
You sound like a nice friend.

It don’t take no 3 pages to say:
”If I buy you this stupid dog I had better get me some…”
With women the only time “the thought counts” is if it is very expensive, like diamonds etc. Try buying some cheap jewelry at Wal-Mart and see if a women comes back with ”well, it’s the thought that counts…” That is code for no puntang for a month pal…

You see the phrase “it’s the thought that counts” is complete BS, nobody really means that just something nice to say.
Like people who say “well its what’s on the inside that counts”, no it isn’t, that’s just what the ugly people say…

You can lie to yourself, but please don't lie to us. you obviously want in her pants, or you are gay. No offense, but if you go to that much work to please a girl that is just a friend, its because you want something more. That's something even a girl wouldn't do for a girlfriend, and if a guy did that much for his guy friend, he'd probably get beaten.

Probably puts him on the dreaded (your like a brother) rung.

Would that be classified as an "Attention *****" or a "Cuddle B*tch"?
(Ladies don't hate me, that's just the name of the rungs on the ladder theory, check the website out if you dont believe me. I just happen to find it amusingly and humerously true, in my very few experinces anyway.)
