    Well if you know what kind of things he's into, you can get him something that he'll most likely appreciate.

    I often buy my boyfriend cd's of bands he likes, accessories for his guitar, gift certificates to the music store or maybe the computer store/game stop, he likes that... one time I just asked him what his favorite restaurant was and took him there for his birthday!

    What Kind of stuff did you buy him for his guitar, because I know he loves his guitar!

    Well I noticed that he uses colored strings on his electric guitar, and that he uses certain guitar picks because he likes the way they feel when he plays, so I picked him up a couple sets of the strings and some of the picks that he liked. If you're in doubt though, most guitar stores will sell you a gift certificate, and then he can pick out anything he wants with it. =)

    Welcome!

    I'm sure he'll appreciate that you were thoughtful about getting him a gift he would like.

    Good luck!

    Hey there..
    Your in the same situation I was like 4 hours ago haha..
    I was wondering what to get this guy I like for his birthday depends how old he is..
    Cause this guy I like.. is 18 so I got him all 18 year old males usually want like.. shot glasses with 18 on them and just get what ever you think is nice. Because the thought is all that matters!

    If you are considering to buy him something for his guitar I would be careful, as you will probably find he already has all the equitment he needs. You may also find that anything he does need/want is well out of the price range you are prepared to pay.
    So mabey it would be best to pick him up a gift certificate.

    What are his interests. Music, clothes, games, cars, hats. Or just be simple and ask his mom

    Yeah, just ask him what he wants for his birthday but if he says "i don't really care" or something like that ask one of his close friends what stuff he's into, what sports he likes, clothing, hats, music. Stuff like that. I was in that problem like a day ago. Haha but I found a solution :)... or ask his mom...

    I'm in the same situation, but he's just a friend. People are baking him cakes and cupcakes if that interests you. And you can never go wrong with a gift card! Haha. My other guy friends birthday was last month and I know he's like obsessed with England so I ordered him a hat with the English flag on it from Sweden. He loved it. Just ask the guy you like what he's in to. That'll give you a hint on what to get.

    This person is not actually my boyfriend, just kind of a good friend and well his birthday already passed but I still want to give him a present. Well maybe you need to know about his personality and if you're too shy ask anyone just try to see what he likes and find stuff that might actually will fit his personality. Like if you friend is a nerd you can buy him a book or a bunch of puzzles or something related to education... (that my friend) :)
    Hope this information is helpful.

    That's what my friend is having trouble with because her friend's birthday is tomorrow and he said that he likes outside stuff but she doesn't know what to get him.

    Men are such hard work to buy for and it really gets on my nerves! I read a good article which provided a man's perspective on why men are so hard to buy for (link below)
    http://www.whattogetaguyforhisbirthday.org/why-are-men-so-hard-to-buy-for-a-mans-perspective/
    Worth a read actually, quite funny, didn't agree with all the tips but good to get a man's point of view.
