tie it around your waist but hide it inside your panties....then have him hunt for his last present.

Well let me say that the jersey thing was a great idea.  But maybe if he's such a big baseball fan, you could get him stuff from the college that he is going to play baseball at.  Or if you guys feel like you've known each other forever, get something that is relevant to your relationship.  Like for instance, something that reminds you of your first kiss, or the song that you guys had your first slow dance to.  But since his christmas gift was such a big deal and was more of a materialistic gift, his birthday prensent (since its like a week after!) should be something meaningful.\n\nGood Luck!

When searching for a great gift for the man in your life, the biggest question you should ask yourself is what does you man spend most of his free time doing? Provided that “sleep” isn’t the answer to this question, then you’re in business. Whatever it is that your man enjoys spending time doing is the biggest clue to finding a present he’ll really appreciate. Has he mentioned that he really needs a certain item, or that something he saw in a flier looks really cool? Take the hint, and make that item your next purchase. It’ll be a guaranteed great gift. Just to get you started, below are some categories your boy might fall into\n\nGift Ideas for Men\nThe Party Boy - Does your man love to host barbeques? If he does, there are a few key gifts in order, such as a set of pristine BBQ tools, metal shish kabob skewers, a “kiss the cook” style apron or a chef hat. To really get that party started, he’s going to need a cocktail shaker, wine, cocktail or shot glasses, and a great set of frosty beer mugs. Collapsible canvas chairs with built in cup holders, tiki torches, and beverage coolers will all help to complete his backyard festivities.\n\nThe Sports Fan - Does your guy routinely invite all his pals over to watch the game? If so, the best gift (if you can afford it ) is probably a large screen TV. Wait for an in-store special when buying, or check out online auctions for the best buy. There are also plenty of neat remote control options, from glow-in-the-dark to voice-activated controls. To keep his beer cold, try a foam beer can cooler. For a boy who loves to play games as well as watch, a tabletop air-hockey or foosball table might be just the ticket.\n\nThe Outdoorsman - If your guy likes to spend his time outside, than there are plenty of great gifts options. If he likes to camp, then your best off getting him something practical, like a waterproof flashlight, lightweight tent, thermal sleeping bag, torch lighters or a Swiss army knife. If he’s a fisherman, then a tackle box filled with assorted hooks and weights, or a new pole, reel or line, is a gift that will be much appreciated. Some fun outdoor gifts could be a set of walky talkies, remote control airplanes, a Frisbee, soccer ball or  a picnic basket, complete with lunch.\n\nThe Electronic Guy - If your partner gets excited every time he walks into the electronic department, then you’re in luck. There are new products coming onto the market virtually everyday to satisfy his technology lust. From digital cameras to webcams, from boom boxes to game consoles, speakers, and wall-projector clocks, there are so many things to choose from. Just make sure that whatever you buy is compatible with the existing computer or music systems he already has. Don’t be afraid to ask a sales representative for help.\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nHopefully the above gift ideas have helped spark your search for the perfect present. The best gifts for men are often the most obvious. Do your homework by keeping your eyes and ears open, and by doing product research. Don’t forget who you’re buying for the most important thing is that he likes it, and you can live with it. \n\n~~~~~~~~~~

Whenever I'm in that situation (for anyone, not just boyfriends) I make a list of everything he or she likes. Try to be as specific as possible. As you're making the list you might start to come up with some possible ideas. My boyfriend (who buys everything he wants and is consequently extremely difficult to shop for) just had a birthday and I did the same thing for him. The list was ridiculously long, but I ended up buying him season 1 of Stella, an incredibly stupid sitcom that lasted only 10 episodes. Anyway, he absolutely loved it. He said that it was one of the most thoughtful gifts anyone had ever bought him and that he wouldn't even have thought of buying himself that. So give it a try-- maybe you'll come up with the perfect gift! Good luck!

Before he comes over, sprinkle red and white rose petals trailing from your front door, to the living room. Watch your-guyses fave movie together, and after that, go out to eat to a fancy resteraunt. I know it doesn't seem like a present to you, but it'll mean a whole lot to him <3 hope it works out!

What about a nice pocket watch and have a personal engraving put on it, or possibly a bow and arrow set for hunting!  My hubby is a huge hunter and alot of times he uses his rifle but a few years ago I got him crossbows and he loves it!  A new rifle is an idea too!  Fishing rod and gear, video game system, Make him a nice basket filled with bubble bath-lotions-candles-sex coupons u make yourself-a bottle of champagne and 2 glasses-  he may look at u weird UNTIL u invite him into the bath with you!  Then he will be very very HAPPY with that gift!  Happy Holidays!  If he smokes a zippo lighter with an engraving.

I guess I would look at it in a nonmaterialistic way. \nMake the day special. It doesn't cost money and items are just that items. I don't know any gift that is treasured more than a great memory.\nWrite him a letter in the morning telling him that you want to create many wonderful memories together today in thanks for all the love that he has given you thorughout the years.\nIf it is a work day, leave messages on his phone......anticiaption is a great thing. Leave little hints as to what you will be doing later together. It doesn't have to be sexual. Send something to work or give him a small gift....have his favorite lunch delivered, think about favorite memories that you have shared and write a letter reminding him about them.......put it in his pocket so he finds it while he is at work. \nlittle things like that ............they mean a lot. \nThen when he comes home, have a great meal waiting for him. Decorate the bedroom with a blanket on the floor and have a picnic in there. Put up little christmas lights or candles all around for atmosphere. Make a cd of all your favorite songs. After you have waited on him hand and foot during the meal, have him lay back and give him a massage......you know the rest.

Anything that he cannot obtain while he is there and things that he may run out of.  My son is in the Middle East too and I am sending him snacks and sugarless gum, a Scrabble Game (the one that is in a small travel case,) for when he gets bored, eye drops, dvd's and cd's for his lap top computer, magazines that I think he will enjoy reading, and Smart Wool socks because he especially likes those because they can keep your feet warm or cool depending upon the weather and are well-cushioned.  I am also going to get him a harmonica even though doesn't know how to play it because he couldn't take his viola with him.  Depending upon where your boyfriend is stationed in Iraq, and what his job is, it may be best to send small items that are easily carried in a knapsack or in pockets as some of these guys are on the move a lot.  When choosing gifts, just keep in mind that he is in a Muslim country so you have to be careful that things that you send are not an insult to that religion; you definately don't want to send any snacks that contain pork or that even say, "bacon flavored." (these were the instructions I was given.)\n     Whatever gift you send to him will be greatly appreciated, but regular letters from you expressing your love and telling of news from home will mean the very most\nto him.  Of course a picture is a good idea but I am not sure I'd send a nude one unless you don't mind other guys seeing it because if your boyfriend somehow lost it, others might see it.

I mail my boyfriend little out of the blue cards for stupid little reasons...Everyone loves getting mail that isn't junk.  On his birthday I had a balloon bouquet sent to his work...Make some cookies or cupcakes and drop them off with a little note so the whole office/coworkers can share.  Put little notes in his coat pockets or inside gloves he wears in the winter that just say I love you or miss you and he will know you are thinking about him even if you're not there.  Invite some of his friends over for Monday night football and spring for some pizza and beer, you will look like the coolest girlfriend ever and he will love you for it.  Surprise him by cooking his favorite meal or making reservations at his favorite restaurant.   It is sooo the little things that count and that make relationships strong.

make a nice dinner for him rent a movie and stay in, it'll be more casual than buying him somthing, plus you'll probably make alot of memories and that's what's going to make it a good present

Get him somethig that interests him(ex:cars - music CD,car magazines,tunning parts etc).Even if the present doesn't have any use for him,try to make him understand that you took some time to pick it and it's the gesture that counts.P.S.:do take some time to gather information in boy stuff,you probably screw up with a pink set of neons for his car :)).Good luck to you!

Transportation-Car;Cell Phone,Nice suit ( Coat and Pant -nice shirt and tie with a tie pin.)Nice shoes ( preferably Black Bostonian).You can buy him out of those if you can,Or buy him a  shaving set,so before he goes to office and do the shaving he will remember you for your gift.And if you wanted to be cheap than buy a shoe polish-shoe color and shoe shine brush.Or a Nice Parker or a Shaffer pen. With an Appointment book with a address book.A pocket calculator ( from Texas Instruments) for calculating mortgage.So as a Christmas gift buy for your BF whichever you can afford it.

Get him something cute and meaningful that you'll be able to joke about later...A little compass on a necklace. He'll ask why the compass and you say, "so you'll always be able to find your way home"...later you can say, "So you can always find your way back to me."\n\nGood luck...let us know what happens!

OK, since we don't know how special you two are to each other, I am going to offer something pretty safe. Go to his favorite music store and get him a gift certificate. Put it in a great card. Now if you want to deliver that card scantily dressed with something else on your mind, fine, but at least let him pick out his own jams.

The very best gift giving ideas I've come up with came from www.thinkthoughtful.com.\nI always try to do something personal, but I'm not creative! I guess a painted rock isn't romantic...my husband loves tools. I thought this was horrible-I wouldn't want kitchen appliances, why would I give tools?! He told me that Home Depot is for him what the jewelry store is for me. It makes his heart sing!! So, I go with that and he is like a little boy on Christmas morning. It's about what makes it wonderful for that other person. Good luck and have fun!
