some thing that you made from your heart that means a lot well meaning that you love him alot

A home-cooked meal would be perfect!  Something he likes, it will seem special but won't make him feel empty-handed for not bringing his own gift.  Plus, if you tell him in advance he can always show up with something (like flowers or wine hopefully)!

It's still early on in the relationship. If you don't feel it's the appropriate amount to spend, I'd talk to him and let him know how you feel.  And maybe come to terms with a spending amount for both of you. I know you may want to get it for him to make him happy, but then you may resent it and this feeling will not be good towards the start of your relationship.  You have to do it from the heart.

Actually I think it is sweet. But my instincts tell me that he doesn't need you to spend money on him. Some fun and romantic gesture would be that much more meaningful. One time I did a really fun thing for a guy I was dating at the time. I wrote about thirty little things on pieces of paper and folded them up and put them in a jar I decorated. That whole weekend we kept pulling out little slips of paper and doing whatever they said. Some were real spontaneous involving jumping in the car and going somewhere. Others were more intimate. :D Others still were fun loving and silly and goofy but great fun. Think of things you know he likes to do. (Hockey, baseball, reading, writing) and center some of the activities around that. Still again center some around things you like to do. Its a great way to get to know one another at the same time you are having a blast! Good luck and I so hope you see this two months later!!!

this year i got my boyfriend a really nice watch. in the past i've given him framed photos of us. one time he gave me an engraved photo album filled with pics of us, you can try this too. or you can try to find something with a lot of meaning behind it, like a gift that somehow reminds you of how you too first met. you could buy him tickets for his favorite baseball team or tickets to a concert for a band he loves.

Well, that depends on the occasion.  \nValentines:  A nice bottle of cologne (like Polo Blue).  Think about how much roses cost on this day....the cologne is a nice match, and lasts wayyy longer.\nAnniversary:  A newly released game (if they play video games), a new golf club (if they play), A season of thier favorite tv show (however stupid it may be lol, they will love it!), I.E. get them something that has to do with their hobby.  It reminds them of how well you know them, and how much you care.\nChristmas:  This one is difficult, I try to zero in on something they need or really want, if they are kind enough to drop hints lol.  A  watch if there is broken, or they have a fine casual one, then if they have that - buy them a "nice" one to wear on special occasions or when they need to look nice.  Seasons tickets to a sport they like, if you can afford it.  Interior covers for thier vehicle, stearing wheal cover, floor mats, a cd holder for their sun visor, and a customized gear shift ball .  ( you can buy these at an autozone or even wal mart )  Basically a car make over, \nB days:  Take him to a movie he wants to see (no matter how stupid you think it is), Find your local race track and take him to a race, they are cheap and the guys love em!  Order a pizza, and play his favorite game - od do whatever he likes at home, Take him to the mall and buy him an outfit, then go out later that night so he can show it off.  The idea with the b day is to do something together while making him feel special on his day.\nI hope this helped.  Guys are just like us, they like to be given thoughtful gifts too!  And they too are thrilled when they get something they really want, or something that lets them know - hey I have been paying attention to you and I really care!  \n: )  So go on spoil them too!

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~~~~~~~~~~

Sounds like your man loves gadgets, ha, I have one of those types also!  My suggestion: try anything by the Sharper Image! Just go to their website, and I'm sure you'll find something that you think he might like. Sorry not to be more specific, but I'm sure you know him better than anyone on the internet does.

On my boyfriend's 19th birthday I got him his favorite candy and a CD for his collection that I knew he didn't have and wanted. Just don't get him anything too expensive. You haven't been together that long and he might think it's a little weird. Not to mention the fact that if you plan to stay with him for awhile you have to be able to top this gift!

i'm in a long  distance relationship too and for my boyfriend's birthday i got him a dvd of a movie we had seen together.  i made a cd of love songs that make me think of our relationship.  i also gave him a picture frame with a picture of one of the times we were together.  those type of gifts any guy from any type of background might be touched by.  my boyfriend loved it.  hope that might help.

Well guys are actually very simple because as long as they get something they are happy but we love to break our heads trying to figure out just what to get them... Well how about you buy him lots of different things and make him a Valenties Basket your self.. exam.  Cologne, beer, Boxers ext... you get the point one colonged you should try is CREED its about $200 joe brand but you will love to smell him and he will love it try it not the black one but the gold one... hope it works out and have a wonderful valenties day !!!

Ok...in my experience...you are better off telling him what you want. Otherwise, you will get something you don't want. For example, last year for my birthday my husband got me a gift certificate for an OIL CHANGE!! So, think of something you want...spa package, jewelry, new pajamas, nice romantic dinner at home, whatever. Just tell the poor guy so he doesn't have to worry himself. he just wants to make you happy!

perfume is good, if your boyfriend likes it. if not, a shirt or jeans would do good too. if your boyfriend love watches, give him one. remember, the only jewelry we guys are supposed to be wearing is watch and a ring. enjoy your shopping!

something homemade maybe.\n\nim thinking for my boyfriend's 18th birthday in a few weeks, im going to give him a cute 5x7 of myself, in a frame, and like have a speech bubble attached that says "i love you!"\n\n/shrugs\n\nas far as actually purchasing something, that depends on his tastes. if you know he lovvves a certain kind of cologne, buy him some. \n\nmaybe even a cd he really wants.. or a shirt you think he'd like.

That's very sweet of you. I think you should get him a gift certificate to his favorite store or if there's anything he's been hinting at wanting then you should get it for him. It's not easy to give specific suggestions because I don't know what types of things your husband likes but whatever you give from your heart I'm sure he will love it.
