First of all, remember to set reminders. Hopefully, we always know the day that our significant other entered the world, but we can also mark down the day they graduated, when our first date was, and so on, in order to celebrate with more gifts.

There should also be regular "just because" presents. "It's not just holidays — any day is a good day to give a gift to a person whose love language is receiving gifts," author Chapman told HuffPost.

Elizabeth McCorvey, a social worker, also had a good idea, which was shared with Insider: "Sneak a peek at your partner's Amazon or Barnes and Noble account and see what's on their wish list. Buy it all." With this strategy, though, be mindful of boundaries regarding trust and privacy, and keep in mind that a confirmation email could be sent after ordering, so feel free to get a little sneaky!
