Okay. I've seen to have friends, that are
girls, that are undecided into what to get
there boyfriend for some certain holiday
or birthday. Well, I've had experience
and out of the few guy friends I have, I
know what you could get your boyfriend.

I don't know much about getting girls
anything...I'm just creative and make
something cute.

But as for guys, here's a list of what they
might like:
  • Cologne.
  • A nice shirt.
  • If your will to, a video game.
  • His favorite bands CD.
  • Anything that reminds him of you.
  • A nice bracelet.
  • A nice necklace.
  • Maybe even a hat.
  • A belt, maybe even his favorite color.
  • A cool wallet.
  • Or just be creative and cheesy.
I've had a share of some of those things
and to be honest, I was extremely happy
with just a belt.

I hope I could've helped.

Haha What a coinkidink, I was looking for a belt for my boy today. :]

This is very cute and helpful, thanks! Maybe a girl should make one for buy gifts for females.

Hmm, I keep feeling that guys are the ones who feel like they should do the cheesy stuff for girls and arn't as comfortable recieving it. *shrug*

Those gifts are moderately priced, what if you need to get him something expensive, like in the $100-150 range? (Please don't suggest I get a combination of what's listed.) Oh, and what if the person isn't a teenager anymore?

Guys really like belts and bracelets...?

No waaaay. That's like saying you don't really know them. Just get them something you know they'd like, or something they would buy themselves. (You should know them pretty well..)

Well not like a woman like bracelet.
But a thick silver bracelet. If you looking
for something in a high priced range,
try getting him a watch. Or a silver/gold
chained necklace with a pendant on it.

Watches and nice shirts are always good. The nice shirt can be worn on special dates and the watch, everyday.

Exactly! And if it's something really really nice, they
can brag about it. Like someone can be like "Hey man,
that's a really nice watch you're wearing." Your
boyfriend would be like, "Yeah, I know! My girlfriend
got this for me on our anniversary."

It'd make him feel proud that he has girlfriend
that cares for him. Not to mention, something
that reminds him of his girlfriend.

  • He already has a PDA, a nice cell phone and an MP3 player, what's the point of having a watch? He can look at the time in 3 different ways.
  • I can't get him a necklace because he already has a chain with the Star of David on it that he wears 24/7, if I get anything else it will get tangled up.
  • He already has enough nice clothes for work and he doesn't like dressing up anyway. He's very laid back. I'm not sure if that makes sense since he has all those gadgets ermm.gif
  • I was thinking about the band CDs but he has them too so I thought about getting him tickets for System of a Down, especially since they're going to go on hiatus after the tour, but the tour is nowhere near us cry.gif
It's not like I don't know him. He has a GameCube and about a week ago I made a list of games that were either highly rated or I thought he'd like or a mix of the two. Today I got to snoop around his stuff because he had a quick errand to run. He has most of the games...

Thanks for all your help Rachel, Bry and Nick. I'm going to hope to God that he doesn't have Need For Speed Most Wanted because he has like 3 games from that series and I can't specifically remember which ones he had pinch.gif I'm going to wrap it up in new pairs of boxers (I snooped through his underwear shifty.gif ) so it'll be like a surprise or something. Or, I'll hide it into the folded pairs of boxers so he'll think I was cheap then be surprised...

Anyway, I think this could be a pinned topic. Like you said, many people have asked about boyfriend/girlfriend/whatever gifts so if people keep suggesting, you or a moderator can update the list. I'll consult the other mods.

^Make something out of your own hands. A drawing, food (every boy loves food, hahaha), customize/add to a plain T-shirt? I doodled something during Math class, I gave it to my boy and he's kept it in his wallet ever since. Heh.

By the way, YourPrettyFaceIsGoingToHELL (Sorry, n00b doesn't know your name pinch.gif ) can you recommend any brand names for the stuff?

I'm Bry.
But anyway, it depends on what kind of guy
your guy is. If he likes band t-shirts and
things like that shop at Spencer's..I don't
recommend Hot Topic because I hate that
store with a passion. You could give it a
shot though. If your guy likes to wear
button up shirts, the Gap has some nice
under $15 button up shirts. They almost
look like something you'd find in Hollister.
Again, the Gap has some nice plain T-shirts
I've got a bunch of shirts from the Gap. If
your boy likes sports, go to any Nike or
sports outlet. Eventually you'd figure it
out.

That's also a good point. I used to write my ex little notes during math class and give them to him, he kept a lot of them. He also still has all the cards I made him (Birthday, Anniversery, and just because)

ok, so i'm sixteen and i've known this guy that i'm dating for almost 2 years. We've only been dating for several months. His birthday is coming up in the next week and I'm not exactly sure what to get him. See, I know that he likes video games, the one that he wants, is the one that his parents won't allow (his parents are strict)so i decided to go to the store and figure something out. Once there, I didn't know hat kind. I wasn't sure which one, so instead I decided to get him a gift card. Simple enough, he can choose a game that he actually wants and one that he's actually allowed to play. But the thing is, I don't want it to seem like I just got him a "card." So I decided okay, I'll get him a shirt..maybe..
I think that this is enough and reasonable for our age, but are there any other suggestions?
Btw, he doesn't really have a "favorite band" and there aren't many "good" concerts in Hawaii. =(

  • Cologne. - I don't wear it
  • A nice shirt. - Maybe, but I got plenty
  • If your will to, a video game. - Usually let the boyfriend do that on his own
  • His favorite bands CD. - Downloading.
  • Anything that reminds him of you. - That wouldn't be bad
  • A nice bracelet. - I don't wear bracelets
  • A nice necklace. - I don't wear necklaces, cept dogtags
  • Maybe even a hat. - Don't wear hats
  • A belt, maybe even his favorite color. - I got one belt I ALWAYS wear
  • A cool wallet. - Guys tend to get wallets that they hold onto for a long time
  • Or just be creative and cheesy. - Cool
