My boyfriend's Birthday; What to buy?!

Sat Jul 17, 2004 3:52 pm

OK, I really LOVe that guy, and I think He loves me how much as I do. It will be 3 months that we will be together at his birthday (OK, I know it's not a lot, but theres always a beggining). He will have 17 years old.

Althought I am 14, I don't have a job, so I can't put a lot of money in his gift...I'll say About 40 $ Can MAX.

My boyfriends LOve music, but he has a MP3 player, so he don't care about CD's anymore. He love Snowboarding... (What? We are in summer!?)... I tried to figured out what he wanted, and he said... I want a surprise. (Yeah Right, so now, Then?!)

Any of you girls have ideas, or you guys, tell me what you receive has gifts from your girlfriends?

Thank you!

You could get him Blank Videos(The gift that keeps on giveing) that way he could record any Snowboarding programs that he find interesting but is too busy to watch.

Then there aftershave what guy wouldn't want aftershave?

Does he like shiny objects? I always like to get Gems and whatnot...

Sorry I wouldn't really know what you could get. Maybe some sort of snowboarding gear or some...stylish sunglasses? Clothing? I dunno. Good luck.

You could buy him some blank CDs that he can burn music on (if he cando that legally anyway). Maybe one of them could already have a collection of songs both of you like on it. Just a thought.

Make him a dinner, even if you're not a good cook it always looks nice when you put effort into something like that.

Then maybe go to a movie or bowling or minigolf (pick up the tab, should be under 40$ definitely)

Yea I think some cooking would be more of a "Come from the heart" gift which I would rather recieve.

I can't think of ideas for a snowboarder. But if he also likes cars, you could buy him one of those model replica cars.

Cook something!

Cooking is excellent. The music CD with songs you both like is good, too.

I use to like giving a bunch of little things. Go someplace special to the two of you, like wherever you first met. Maybe have a little picnic you made up, with a radio playing a collection of your (both of you) favorite songs. Then give him a bunch of little things that remind you of him. You can find some nice things at like a dollar or department store. You could give him gifts like:

*a keychain with a picture of you (or with the both of you)
*some of his favorite snacks
*a stuffed animal that reminds you of him or something you did together
*a chain with a charm that has something to do with you (does he wear jewelry?)

and other little things like that. It doesn't have to cost much.

Flowers and balloons are nice, too.

Once I gave my husband (then boyfriend) balloons, a single rose, and a variety of different desserts (brownies, canolis, carrot cake, cheese cake, cookies). I can't remember which anniversary it was, though. I know it was one of our early ones, like 1-3 mths. Whatever you give, make ot form the heart. I'm sure he will appreciate it as long as it's from you.

Maybe a snowboarding video or computer game... I have one of those.

Or a G-Shock watch, they rock, exspecialy if he does sports. I know that they are expensive, but there was this one Baby-G watch that I always wanted and it sold everywhere for 80-100 bucks, but right before I left the US I bought one at Macys for $22... A very good deal.

Does he need a snowboarding helmet? Maybe you could find something like that. Make sure it has awesome graphics, too.

Guys like naughty magazines and video games. That's all you need to buy.
