    What do boys like for presents? Yikes, I need a little help.
    So my boyfriend and I will be celebrating our one year anniversary in about two weeks. I have no idea what to get him. Girls are easy to get presents for, buy us a teddy bear, some jewelry, some clothes, candy. Whatever! And we're happy. Do boys even care if we only get them like one thing? So far I've bought a personalized dog tag for him with the special date and our names on it. Is that enough? I feel like I should buy more. Any ideas? Help, please .
    - Thanks!

    Sounds good to me! I suggest some non material things. For example, bringing him to a sports event. You could go to the game a few days in advance, it doesn't have to be that particular day. Otherwise, sports gear is always good.

    If he's not sporty, then try to buy something to goes with his passion. For example, if he likes music, then buy something related to music. In the end, it's the thought that counts, more than the actual gift.

    Something that every guy WILL loveee for sure is seeing the one they love in lingerie and ready to get down and dirty... there is no better gift than that if you are trying to stay away from materialistic things. :)

    Good Luck,

    @ 'I Wish' - thanks! Sounds creative. He loves his videogames... Gosh such a little kid at heart, lol . But then it comes to what specific one he wants and he's got to have the latest one and oh goshh maybe I'm over-thinking it ? Ha, I always stress when it comes to presents because I want it to be perfect! Mmm :/ I'll figure something out. Thanks for the tip! :)
