<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

This girl and I have been hanging out for about 3 months.  I am debating buying her a $400 airline gift certificate but don't know if it is too much.

Little background: 

We are both grad school.  I have a job lined up that pays well so $400 is not breaking the bank for me.  She just moved to my city from Cali.  Flights are about $400.  She went back home once and I've never seen her so happy as when she got back.  I asked if she would visit again but she said she doesn't have the money (and probably won't for a while as her degree pays less)

Our relationship is good most of the time, but not 100% solid.  She has/had emotional/physical barriers that we have had to deal with.  I believe a lot of that though is due to the fact she had a long-distance relationship go sour (he was also verbally abusive).  My job after grad school would make us long distance and she still has 2 more years after I leave.  I do already think I love her but I'm giving it more than 3 months to say/act on those thoughts.  Fact is, this may never go where I would want it to go...but I'm trying to enjoy every moment right now.

So I'm pretty sure for Xmas she is knitting me a scarf that we had talked about.  Plus she will probably get my dog something.  I honestly have everything I need and I love that she is taking the time/energy to knit for me.

I've racked my brain about what to buy her that would make her happy but honestly the only thing I can think of is reuniting her again with her friends.

I was considering giving it to her on the premise that it is both Xmas and Vday gift since she will definitely think it is too much money.  I know she doesn't want to be spoiled.  I'm also planning on buying her a $50 bottle of whiskey for New Years in case that should be factored in (?).

So is it too much?  Is it personal enough?
<bot>: Gf happy with friends back home.  Can't afford flight.  Flight expensive but I think it would be good gift.  Relationship newer, not air tight, but growing stronger.
