I'm engaged to the love of my life, but agree it is a little bizarre to get engaged at 18.
I'm confident, quite literally crazy, caring and crippled. My manual wheelchair is called Sebastian and he gets scared when he goes too fast, my electric is called Jermaine (after the Flight of the Conchords character) and he really does not like ice.
I can read Braille and I know basic sign language because I believe everyone should be given equal chances. I dislike it that money doesn't have Braille on it.
I'll do my best to help out with your situations, I've been in and seen many a family conflict, I've had my fair share or love life crises, I've had about every illness known to man (could tell you a lot of amusing stories about psychiatric wards) and I'm "The Queen of Hair Dye" so hopefully I'll have some idea about advice. If it looks like I don't give lots of advice, it's because I only advise on things I know about. I also detest poor spelling and grammar so although having dyslexia makes me a bit hypocritical about this.
advice
So me and my boyfriend will have been together for about two years when his 18th birthday rolls around (beginning of October), and I have no idea what to get/do for him. Last year I had a pretty nice paying summer job, so I was able to buy him an xbox 360 with a game. This year Ive got another decently paying job, so money really isnt an issue. I just want to do/get something special because its his 18th you know?
Any ideas?
1: Why not get hip an ipod or similar (and docking station etc if you want to spend more) and load songs on to it that tell him how you feel about him, and pictures of you two together. A bit like a modern twist on the mix tape.
2: You could get him a photo makeover thing for the two of you so that you get some professional pictures of the two of you together.
3: What about a minibreak/holiday take him to a city he really wants to go to for a few days. It doesn't have to be too expensive.
4: take him to see his favourite band with dinner before/after and a night in a hotel?
5: whatever you get him, you could leave a note or letter for him somewhere in the packaging, telling him how much he means to you.
Thats all Ive got at the moment, hope he has a good one
(Rating: 5) Those are really good ideas, thanks :)
