So, what kinds of gifts should I give my boyfriend?

I’ve already given him ornaments, artwork, nice photo frames, a leather wallet and a cute and quirky mug.  I’ve bought him nice shirts, shoes and socks, a drinking cup, a varnished crucifix, some antique bowls and a dolphin paperweight, a scrapbook, a quilt, cushions, a mug set, a vintage salad bowl, a journal, a photo of me and a fancy birthday cake over the time that we’ve been together.  What else can I give him?  For his next birthday, Xmas and valentines Day?  What else do men enjoy?

    Just think of things he likes. You don't have to get something flashy for him to like it!

    My Aunt makes my cousins' "birthday boxes." They're grown and have their own families, so they're hard to shop for now... So she'll get them tools, shirts, socks, undies, makes their favorite cookies for them, other snacks they love, and gets silly gifts for them too--my one cousin has a thing with duct tape, so she bought him like 5 different colors of duct tape, and she just fills a storage box up for them... No only are they useful, but I think it's sweet and shows she really knows her kids and what they like.

    So just think of thinks he likes or could use and fill a box. Clothes. Snacks. Could he use new, really comfy bedding? Does he like working on cars--maybe get him a gift certificate or something... Does he like sports?--get him memorabilia? If he likes, say, the Lakers, get him Laker PJ pants or something... Cutesy gifts? Does he like random kids toys like Play-Doh, squirt guns, paddleball toys?

    Personally, I think any kind of jewerly is cliche. And guys usually don't wear jewerly--if he does, then I guess that makes it slightly better, but... idk, jewerly is just really typical and it really doesn't take a whole lot of thought and it doesn't really show you KNOW that person and things they like.

    Why so many gifts?  Are you trying to buy him?  Stop.. with the gifts.  He has you and thats all he should want.

    why do you have to give him things? why do women / girls think they need to give him  things. If you are sure he needs something or would like something then get it for him or do it for him otherwise he has you. He needs nothing else.
