Me and one of my best friends have been friends for nearly 3 years now and he has been there for me through spick and span, even when my other best friend and I split. This other best friend and I were friends for over 13 years and well, when we split, it was pretty devastating for me. When I was sad and everything because of that unfortunate event, he was still there for me... so with that, I had the oddest feeling to get him something. Something for the both of us that we can keep with each other always, like something to wear. But the thing is that I'm a guy, and well he's a guy as well. So the thing is that I can't think of anything like that... Like girls have those necklaces that have a split heart with one side saying best and the other friend, and many other things like as well. Though, I can't think of something like that for guys. I want to give him something like that, but I don't want it to look as if me and him are homosexuals, because were not. I need some suggestions.

Here's a few suggestions:

* Buy him some tickets for a sporting event, concert or special exhibition.

* Buy him something for his car, computer or tool chest.

* Make him a gift basket with his favorite alcoholic beverages, gourmet foods, or give a gift certificate for his favorite restaurant.

* Pay for both of you to take a local fishing trip, play a round of golf, or play racquetball.

* Sign him up for a beer-of-the-month club.

Yes, these are great examples. You can never go wrong with his interest.

I always send my best friend a long newsy letter with a tea bag. That way she can have a nice cup of tea while she reads all my news! A great best friend birthday gift for an absent friend.
Or send them a video birthday greeting
