I actually prefer presents (and prefer to give them too).  It shows that the person that it was given by really took the time to think about you and what you would like.

If someone gave you a present for your birthday, then it's polite to give them one for theirs.  Basically though, give a gift when you feel inclined to, maybe because you're old friends, or family members, or the person helped you out a lot this year.  Don't worry about them feeling like they have to "repay" you for your gift.  Gifts are just that -- gifts -- and they shouldn't be thought of as favors.

You can give him a kiss. I mean, isn't that special? It is from you, a gift that no one has ever thought of before.

Give it to him! Make his day, and yours!  \n\nThere should be pre-birthday, birthday and after-birthday presents as far as I am concerned.\n\nI love it when I have found something I know that person is going to love and I can't ever wait either.  By Christmas eve all that is left under the tree is a pile of paper and ribbon.  But we're happy!

Appreciation/enthusiasm of their gift is best.

We have to.  Guys usually aren't creative enough to come up with a real romantic gift, which we would prefer.  So, it's almost like an understanding that if the guy gets a woman flowers, she accepts that as the best he can do!  Seriously, if you want to get a girl something nice and romantic, think about her as the unique person she is - not as a generic woman.  Flowers, candy, bears, etc are all nice, but don't show her you have put any thought into your gift.

Well, it sounds like maybe he needs a little prodding...maybe you should get him a gift that signifies something meaningful to the two of u, and then plan a night that he wont soon forget.

If his being with you has made your life happier or more meaningful, there would be no sweeter gift than to somehow let him know this.

Yes. I try to imagine the giver taking the time and energy to select a gift just for me. It takes a special amount of focus and care to select and gift and I feel very blessed that someone has given me the gift of their attention as well as whatever they have given me. For me to send a sincere thank you note is just a simple way that I can show them how much I appreciate what they have done.

If the gift in question is truly sincere and comes from your heart then go with that. A new regulation football, or a signed one by his fav player, a nice smelling cologne that he likes, clothing that he has interest in, mp3 player, and/or just about anything that he has mentioned that he has a fondness for. If you know him that well you will come to realize these things.\nGood luck and good shopping.\n\n\nps: Take him shopping with you and see what interests him and what stores he frequents. he will eventually and unknowingly show you what he likes or wants.

With men, if they ask for something that means they really want it. It wouldn't ruin the surprise if you got him a bbq grill... he might even be dissapointed if you don't get him one. You should always get guys what they ask for..it's easier. You still have two more gifts to surprise him with.
