Using to vs. for with purpose and reasons
Looking at the uses of to and for individually, you’ll notice there’s some overlap,
particularly when it comes to reasons and explaining why. This topic alone creates a
lot of the to vs. for confusion.
When it comes to purpose and reason, the simple difference between to and for is:
to is used with verbs
for is used with nouns
Consider these examples:
I came here to see you.
I came here for you.

Both communicate similar messages, but with different words. The first sentence
uses to because the reason is a verb (“see”); the second sentence uses for because
the reason is a noun (“you”).
Using important to vs. important for
It’s quite common to hear both “important to someone” and “important for
someone.” While they’re both grammatically correct—and similar—their meanings
have a slight difference that’s worth mentioning.
important to indicates personal or sentimental value, with emotional
significance
important for indicates a practical benefit, not always an emotional significance
As an example, a job interview might be important for you as a way to make money
and afford your lifestyle. However, if the interview is for your childhood dream job,
then the job interview can also be important to you because it reflects a personal
passion.
Using to vs. for with receiving something
Although to is more closely related to receiving something, people often mix it up
with for. Because for indicates a reason that’s a noun—in this case, a person—it
can get confusing.
Essentially, when you’re talking about someone receiving something directly, use to
followed by the recipient (the person who receives something).
