- We have been friends since we started our schooling.
- He is a brother from another mother.
- His financial background is not strong, but he is very good at computers.
- Therefore, I am thinking of giving him a present on this birthday coming next month.
- He is currently working in an IT company and earning a good salary but not enough to buy this laptop.
- He shared a unique idea. He wants to build an application.
- He needs Apple’s laptop to build this application. Because the program he intends to build runs only on Mac book.
- I really liked his idea, and I want my friend to achieve his dream.
- I hope he will perfectly implement his concept.
- I know this laptop is very costly, but money doesn’t matter for my friend’s future.
- So this is the gift I would like to give this laptop to my friend.
Follow-up:

I don’t think we need to take any pressure when deciding on gifts. But, when we go out to buy a gift, we often get pressurized whether the purchased gift is liked by the person. This happened to me so many times.

- What kinds of gifts are suitable for friends to give each other?
I prefer to give electronics gadgets because our friendship is mostly with people of the same age group. Therefore, we know the age group’s likes and dislikes, and I think young adults like gadgets the most.

First of all, people consider the kind of occasion and then they consider the age. This helps them to narrow down the gift options available to choose from.
