Wallet It's generic, sure, but a wallet |
Clothes (stick to tops) Clothes are practical, and if he wears them, you'll know that he truly liked them. Of course, you're not going for the grandma-knit Christmas sweater--tops are your target. They'll be easier when it comes to size than shoes or pants. |
Watch Watches can be tricky. You definitely don't want to get him something cheap, but if you two have only been going out for a few months, a Rolex might be a little overboard. Check out what we've listed below. |

CDs or DVDs What's his favorite band or TV show? Get him a Best Of or a boxed set of something you know he is into. It shows you are paying attention, but it's still practical and fun. Plus, you can watch together. Don't forget the popcorn |
Cologne You can't go wrong with cologne |
Event Tickets Tickets to see a guy's favorite band or sports team are priceless gifts. You'll score huge points, especially if you actually show enthusiasm to go with him to support his fandom (go Dallas!) and get into the spirit during the event. |

Picture Frame All guys have a sensitive side, and you could tap into it by offering him a picture frame of pictures of you two together. Avoid giving him a frame with only pictures of yourself, no matter how in love he is with you. A frame with photos of you two will make him remember the good times of the relationship. |
Dinner Date Take him out to his favorite restaurant and treat him to dinner (as in, YOU pay)! If the weather is absolutely dreadful, then maybe it's better to plan a romantic dinner inside. Surprise him with the classic, candle-lit dinner, complete with homemade _____(fill in the blank) or take-out (for those of us who can't cook for their lives). Oh, and don't forget to wear your sexiest outfit! |
