T.B.
Buy your girl a rod and reel if you think she'll use and enjoy it.If she is your kind of girl she will love it because it is something you love.
I was widowed after 30 years of life with a girl who went fishing with me in the early years and never complained about time I spent fishing.
I always provided for the family first of course.
I have remarried since and was lucky enough to find a gal who likes to go fishing and crabbing. We've had some great adventures in the last 3 years.
Anyone you intend to spend your life with should be your best friend first.
Sorry about the serious tone
Cheers and good luck, Dan
