I am The Crusader. I'm headstrong. I'm a debater. I'm in High School...but that doesn't make my advice suck. I'm nice...sometimes. I'm opinionated. I'm a feminist, and I'd love to change your mind on exactly what that means. I like you until I'm given a reason not to, and it's very easy to give me a reason not to. I love life.

ok, i know its really early but i dont want to leave this til last minute...
i don't know what to get my boyfriend for christmas.
backround information: we've been dating for over a year, in december we will have been dating 19 months.
he's getting me a promise ring from james avery...and something else. heard it through the grapevine...and indirectly from him.
we've been through alot together and i want to show him how special he is to me and how much i love him.
we're still in high school so something thats not too hard.
he said all he wants is to spend time with me...so should i plan a day with us just together? and if so...ideas for what we should do? i know it could be a full day because my parents dont really have a problem with him sleeping over at my house....
if i buy him something, what budget should i stay close to? and what should i get?
please help! thanks in advance. :) (link)

What I did for my ex-boyfriend last year was made him a really nice scrapbook. I took a bunch of old pictures and magazines and bought a small 14 page scrapbook, a really nice one with a heart on the front. I cut words out of the magazines to write him notes and letters and pasted pictures of us and him with things like "I want you" ect next to them. I put some on-line comics in there and on the last page put in a handwritten note saying how much me meant to me. He really liked it. It took a long time and a lot of flipping through magazines for words but it was worth it in the end. They come out looking really nice if you put some time and effort into it and it's a really sweet, personalized gift.
You should spend the day with him also, maybe renting a bunch of stupid Christmas movies like A Charlie Brown Christmas or A Christmas Story and watch those and eat popcorn for a while, maybe go ice skating if you do that near where you live, open presents, bake cookies (heh), make out and just spend time with him. I've always found the best days are spent just hanging with someone aimlessly, talking and watching movies.
I wouldn't buy him something. I know that might not make a lot of sense, but I really think making a gift and personalizing it is much better for someone you're close to. Time and effort says "I care" better than anything expensive from the store does.
It sounds like you really care about your boyfriend a lot. :-) I'm glad.

thanks, those are really good ideas. and i totally agree...id rather make him something or do something for him than buy him something...for his birthday (it was over the summer) i had been out of town but i kept a journal of the first half of my summer and gave that to him...so im all about sentimental stuff.
thank you so much! :)
