truffes Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Hi everyone. I met my BF in March of 2009 and it was one of those bizarre events that you never really think can ever happen. The only problem was that he actually lived 3,000 miles away, so in May I came to visit for a week, ended up staying for almost 3 weeks and by June I had moved and we were living together. It's pretty serious at this point and his birthday is coming up in a week in a half. It's his 30th birthday (I'm 23), so I want to make it really really special. I'm going to be going to his work to surprise him with a birthday cake for the cast and crew to enjoy during their daily lunch catering. On the weekend, I've reserved a big table for all of our friends at a really good restaurant (it's not a surprise though). The only thing I have left is his gift. I have absolutely no idea what to get him. I really need some help. I'm currently on unemployment compensation so he knows I don't have much money (I take care of all the home stuff and he takes care of all the bills). I can spend a maximum of $200 on his gift (I'm not willing to put a gift on a CC since we're both very financially responsible). If I could afford it, my dream gift would be to get him one of the new Panasonic LED TVs or the new Canon s90. He loves tech stuff but we already have two Macbooks, a Wii that no one ever touches, about 6 iPods, a blackberry and an iphone, you get the picture. He's also very into film but our DVD collection is getting out of hand. He doesn't read too much since he works 12 hours a day and all the other time we spend together but he does enjoy authors like James Ellroy. I'm totally at a loss. I've never really worried about stuff like this before but he's the one. Are there any guys here who could steer me in the right direction? What would you like from your girlfriend if you were tech, art and film oriented? I would appreciate any advice. Thanks in advance! Link to post Share on other sites
