What do you get a 23 year old black male, as a gift for a two year anniversary present? Something that is special and meaningful. \nI know what kind of things he likes, I just don't want to get him the same old stuff, I want to get something new, and unexpected.

how about a romantic weekend getaway.. it don't have to be a major thing, just a fun road trip.. a cozy motel or bed-n-breakfast, a great meal at a restaurant you two have never been to, cocktails and dancing at a great club, and a mind blowing make love session that focuses on him..

A great book would be a wonderful gift! Even magazines and other reading material, I think he'd enjoy. Stuff that they can really use. Even stuff like batteries are great because there are limited places they can buy that stuff for their personal use.\nPs. If you have any further questions, you can email me, if you'd like.\n*Edit: Oh, I forgot to mention... also phone cards! That's always a great gift! Or a portable DVD player (if you want to spend that much money).

something tasteful and personal, but not too personal. Lik a gift basket or something. Don't give the female bath products. Try tea and cookies instead. For the guy, some small tech thing is usually welcomed. you can get nice stuff of this nature without spending too much, too. www.gifts.com can help, too

get him a jersey of his fave football or basketball player...if he doesn't like sports and is sappy you could pick 2 stars right next to eachother and name them after the two of you...i think it's like $150 or something like that...i think that it just so romantic but you can't do it unless he's the kind of guy who appreciates things like that. good luck and happy early anniversary!!

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~~~~~~~~~~

Just think about what he likes and is into.  My boyfriend plays guitar and likes anything to do with music.  So I had my Grandmother knit a Christmas stocking for him (You could just buy one) and I am filling it with things that have to do with playing or bands that he likes.    For example a DVD of a favorite band playing a concert, a gift certificate to a music store, magazine subscription, guitar pick holder, a cup stand for his microphone,  things like that.  Last year I went to build-a-bear and made him a teddy bear with a voice chip I recorded in it.  Another gift was a pocket watch that I had engraved.  He will like anything as long as u put your heart into it and get him something personal.

u should get him something that says alot, like if he metioned liking something (and it didn't seem important at the time...) get that. or get him something of his fave group, music, animal, etc...\n\nthat is what i'm doing for my bf. he likes snakes, so i'm getting him a beanie baby of a snake, and spraying it with my vanilla body spritz, cuz he likes the smell of it.\n\nit is little things like that, that says alot!\ngood luck

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!

I made my boyfriend a scrapbook for Valentine's Day... Just a little one with pictures of everything from that year and wrote some sweet stuff in it.  A gift that he might like better though - buy yourself something sexy and have a dinner alone at home.  He'll love it!  :)

These ideas are some from gifts my husband has given me, or I have heard of from other women, or things that I want :)  So maybe they will help you imagine what would work for you!  :)  This is kinda fun!! lol\nA ticket for a weekend for two at a romantic Bed and Breakfast\nA check for her to use for her - only her - for personal things and clothes.\nI would love very very nice pajamas with a matching robe (but if she is a mother with young kids she probably would want something more practical)\njewelry - the best, of course, or the best that you can afford.\na jewelry cabinet - they are the big ones that are like mini dressers - the run from 99. to over 400.  It holds alot of jewelry!\nA special piece of furniture - an antique rocker, antique hope chest - I would personally love it if he bought something from an antique store but she might prefer new things.\nwhatever her hobby might be - give her somethign that is really cool in her realm of hobbies - like very nice easel for painting, or new oil paints and expensive sable brushes, or waterpaints, or a gift certificate for her favorite hobby store.....  this would work for me but not all women and you would know if it would work for your wife!  \nplane tickets to a warm beautiful place for a vacation for the two of you for sometime in January!  wow -THAT would be cool!\nI know that I buy myself stuff through out the year but when Christmas comes - I want something I wouldn't normally buy myself, something seen as extravagant, something that makes me feel like I am really special to the person that bought it for me.  \nA special gift from an antique store just melts my heart.  That means that it is more than likely one of a kind and really specially chosen for me.   But if she doesn't have those same feelings then she might think it's junk and that you were cheap! yikes!\nAnother thing is if she has shown any interest - you could call your local university and see if the adult ed classes are having dancing lessons and you could sign you and her up for a few weeks of dancing classes.  The classes all over the U.S. are filling up with people who have never danced before who want to learn.  My husband and I went last summer and while we probably flunked the classes, we laughed the whole time we were in the class and had a great time!  It was a lot of fun!\nYou can also ask a female relative or one of your wife's best friends what she might be wanting and what they think.  Not knowing your wife makes it hard for me to answer, but on the other hand I am telling you things that might be new and different, too.  :)\nVery best of luck to you and your wife is really lucky to have a thoughtful (and early!) husband!!

A funny Christmas card and a gift card for strabucks, or some local cofee shop. nothing to personal but appropriate. I think this combo works well.  You could always switch the gift card with a place you know he likes, but coffee is usually a winner

Choose gifts that last for a long period of time, are personalized or celebrate the fact you are now committed.  Gifts should look to the long-term, be personalized and have an air of romance or permanence.\n\nWhat about a "diamond Key to My Heart necklace" Cost only a couple of hundred.\n\nI know you had a lot of bike information but, treat her more as girl, then as her riding partner.\n\n4 years, maybe an engagement ring

i guess if you are still friends it's ok to give him a gift but make sure its a 'friend' kind of gift and not a boyfriend gift. make it something he will like but not too expensive, etc.

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.

What is his favorite brand of cars? Is he into Dodges? If so get him t-shirts, hats, etc. of his favorite car brand.\n\nWhat are his other interests besides cars, tools, and video games? Does he like computer games? What kind of music.\n\nWhat my boyfriend and I do is give each other a wish list via email for each other. My boyfriend is into cars and tools but he has so many tools that I don't know what to get him so he sent me a wish list and I picked out some things for him and he loved it. \n\nI feel it is best to ask what they want and have them be happy than to choose something for them to be a surprise and have them hate it. \n\nAlso pay close attention to him when watching tv or hanging out. He'll most likely say things in passing he wants this or wants that.
