    What if you cook him a nice dinner and tell him how much you care about him and how much he means to you. Tell him what you love about him and tell him how he has made your life better because you guys are dating.

    Hopefully that will lift his spirits on a low budget! :)

    There are too many variables to give a good answer to this question. I can tell you that the way the "name a star" scam works is they sell you a certificate, listing a star that has been supposedly named after him. They put this information in a book, and file a copyright on the book, which is how the name is "registered with the US copyright office".

    You do not say what his age or interests are. A twenty year old who loves computer games would want something different than a 30 year old into auto racing, or a 70 year old into opera.

    The best gifts are ones that are given from the heart. Is there something he likes. A sports fan would love tickets to see their favorite team. Someone into outdoor activities may like a weekend camping trip.

    Without knowing what his interests are, it is hard to give an answer. I can tell you that you do not have to spend a lot of money to make him happy.

    OMG guys are so hard to shop for!

    Does he have a favorite sports team? Say he's a yankees fan get him some nice sports stuff like a jacket,hoodie really anything that's sports related. A nice wallet maybe. Something for his car like new speakers, their not too much $$ on most car models. Just think of some of his favorite things and look on ebay.

    Depends on what he likes, I would be happy with either:

    A toolbox, a highly rated PS3 game, a surefire mini flashlight, a swiss army knife, or a massage session.

    I would NOT be that happy with: a book (I like to choose what I read), or a pet (I like to choose my responsibilities).

    well, what does your boyfriend like? i would take him out for a night, go to a restaurant, movie etc. and then i would just buy him clothes or if he likes a sport than something with sports. etc.

    how about getting a gift certificate for a tattoo or something. it's empowering and will mark a time in his life for him to remember forever.

    Maybe you should buy hims something that he likes... an updated version of something old he has... or possibly give it up/ but in a "wild & kinky way"

    Hi,

    The star sounds good, and how could it be a scam if you know in your heart that you named it after him. :) helps, also try getting him somthing costom with his name.
