What you want with small web projects are probably not things you need to get in contact with companies every day to monetize. Sticking a suitable advertising network should be enough, or you should do like one or two companies at a time, changing monthly. If you go with your idea there is room for expansion. See if you can make it work for a broader categories then just guys getting stuff for wives and gfs. The reverse for one. You could target it at women to get insight into what guys like. And maybe find a way to get users to review or provide ideas... Maybe gamify it. And there is always anonymous marketing data as a potential money stream. I also recall reading about a date planning site for committed couples not too long ago. You might see what is already out there. The best thing to monetize is perhaps something you are already doing for yourself. You can extrapolate from your experience.
