Birthday Gift Troubles
My boyfriend's 27th birthday is coming up in a few weeks, and I can't think of anything to get him. He has quite a bit of money, and I'm not sure what to get him that doesn't look bad.
I know he'll love whatever I give him because I gave it to him (Cheesey I know, but that's him to a T. I could hit him with a frying pan and he'd think it was cute.), but I really want to try and get him something he would use.
Any ideas or suggestions are gladly taken, believe me, I could use them.

Well, you could buy him a watch or some sort of jewelry that he would wear all the time. Rings are in, so you should get him something like that.

One of the almost guaranteed good gift ideas for guys is to give him something he can use, but with a personal touch.
What are his hobbies? What does are his preferences? Does he have any passions?
I've found that if you cater to his preferences, you'll have a much better time finding him a gift. Keep in mind that monetary cost is not a measure of how good a gift is, but instead how much thought and love was put into it. For instance, a "I LOVE YOU" that you found encrusted with diamonds for $500 probably won't be as valuable as a hand-knitted scarf simply because of the time put into. Has he been eyeing a nice watch? or have you noticed that he's been checking out some gadget?
Just be careful of what I call "trinket gifts". Before you buy anything, think about where it'll be the week after you give it to him. If you think it's going to be collecting dust, then it's not a good idea.
On the other hand, your birthday present doesn't even have to be a physical object. Do something romantic for him (Guys like romance too!) Turn the tables on him and take him out on an amazing night out on the town. Go out to the beach and have a picnic, take him to a fancy restaurant and pick up the check, go somewhere and act like children, drive him to make-out point, participate in one of his hobbies with him. Make him breakfast in bed or something, anything to show him that you care enough to make him feel special on his birthday.
From what you said, he'll love whatever you give to him. Think about why for a second...perhaps it's not the OBJECT that he appreciates more than the gesture, consideration, and care. If so, you're a lucky girl!
My suggestion to you: Get a single present that he can USE (a new watch, videogames?) and instead of trying to cram what you're trying to show into a physical object, spend the day making him feel special on his special day. That way, whenever he uses your gift, be it watch, a razor, or a new stapler, he will remember how you made him feel that day.
Good luck! ^_^

Lol, Maybe a keychain, you know, I came across one of these pair keychains where one of them is shaped like a heart with a space in the middle and it has "I" space(in the middle) and "YOU"
and the other one fits into it like a key and had LOVE on it....
I'm sure if you looked around you could find something like that.
Or a sliver chain with something cool....like a lion with your intials....
He'll know it came from the heart no matter what you give him.
Make him a gorgeous card to go with it~!
I have alot of other suggestions because I make everything I give to people I love...
If you shape aluminum foil into a letter and cover it with gold string (embroidery works well) (just tie a knot at one end and warp it slowly around the whole letter and tie a knot at the other end)
and hang it from a black band, it'll look cool and masculine, I give one to my cousin, just make sure the knots are tight, make many if you have 2!
There are so many other ideas! Let yourself free and make not one but 3 or 4 things!
