I have a lot of trouble thinking of gifts to give to a boyfriend. I mean like a real item, not like something that has sentimental value. Also, I don't wanna ask him what he wants cause that'll only ruin the surprise. The only things I can think of are clothes and cologne. Anyone got more ideas?
LiNHy POO
yehh i hate shopping for guys... cuz dang it!! i have no clue wut they want!!! hmm.. i gave alot of gift certifcates to the mall, favorite store and/or best buy!! laugh.gif but if you wanted to be meaningful and special.. how about cook for him?

wow there are alreadi 15 million topics on this!!! eek!!! okay nywaiz, instead of getting him something why not take him out somewhere??? make memories with him biggrin.gif

i want a toy. MUAH!

Lol, Mini.

Uh, cologne, a watch.. CDs are the best.

My boyfriend is addicted to music just like I am, so yeah.. that's easy enough.

Or, like people have said in the past.. do something for him instead of going and getting something. You can get a card + something small, then go somewhere and chill, give him the little gift, and end the night in a kiss. How sweet is that?! XD happy.gif

wow.. there's too many threads on this..

Cologne, watch, CDs. I have a hard time finding stuff for guys too. We should have a post where guys post what they want for girls lol. It'll make life easier for all of us.

Clothes would be pretty good.

get him something he needs...like..for examples:

1. if he wears the same thing over and over or his sense of style sucks..get him clothing..[dont make it too obvious his sense of style sucks though, he might start crying]
2. if he stinks..cologne..
3. if his hands arent smooth as the baby's bottom..get him lotion...[somewhat girly but i know LOTS of manly guys that uses victoria secrets' lotions]...
4. if his room is decorated by dragonballs posters and import models then get him decent looking decors [i.e. picture frame with you guys in it or lava lamp]
5. if his wallet if falling apart..then you know a wallet would be nice
6. if he's a total perv...maxim subscription...or...playboy! wink.gif

yeah i know you said not though sentimental gift but a coupon books made by you would be sooo sweet! like..you make lil coupon that he could use for massages, kisses, hugs, dinners, etc...FROM YOU! it's especially great when your wallet is empty

hmm my best gift to a guy was probably a jar of stars that i folded and i wrote a note saying each stars shows how much i love you. kinda corny, but with all the time and love putted into it, its worth it in the end.

3. CDs. good music in his taste.
4. DVDs. action. not foriegn, or adventure.

-Money
-Scarface DVD or poster or w/e tht have to do with Scareface
-a card with sweet things in them
-idk, one of my thongs.. whistling.gif lol

ya just get him something you know he likes. ummm if he likes this specific movie, then get NE thing or everything on tht specific movie. if you dont know wht he likes, give him a sweet card with some sweet writing in it..umm if tht fails, give him money...if tht fails, use this as a last resort...give him ur bra or thong. im sure he will like it hahahaha happy.gif
