18th birthday present ideas for my boyfriend
I'm 15 (almost 16) and my boyfriend will be 18 in about a week. I'm not exactly sure what to get him for his birthday. we've been dating for 5 months and we're really close. I want to get him something meaningful. something he can unwrap but I also wanna take him somewhere. I'm his girlfriend and it's his 18th birthday so I wanna do something really special and I want it to be the best present he gets. I was thinking a Red Sox game but he can't drive, he can get his license on his birthday but the way it works out is kind of iffy. so I don't wanna risk anything. I was thinking beef jerkey, sour patch kids, and a sports hat or sports tshirt. but I wanna go somewhere meaningful or get him something meaningful. any ideas are help ful and greatly appreciated! from both guys and girls would be great too. thank you :)

I think its best to steer clear of driving games-no pun intended. They're just not SPECIAL enough.
I celebrated my 18th just over a week ago. I'm a girl, but I have a few ideas :)
Like I got a new watch. Ok, so it cost over £100, but perhaps if you could get a cheaper one-say £20-£30, this will be very special.
Also, why don't you try a special aftershave set, or even like a new fragrance?
You can also buy 'experience' days. You'll have to check the age of this though, because some of them require one person to be over the age of 21.
I would stay clear from what I call 'everyday' thank you presents. This includes chocolate-no matter how posh-its just not special enough. It'd be fine if he was just a friend, but for I boyfriend? I wouldn't. Also, stay clear of clothing.
A nice idea would be to get something engraved/personalised. In the UK, I know many people who use [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) You could use this or similar sites? Its a nice touch that has the 'special' element to it. For example, if he is into sports as you say, you could buy a personalized sports canister/flask?
Hope I was a help :)

Personally, Since it's a gift for your boyfriend it doesn't really matter what it is as long as you give alot of thoughts and feelings into preparing them, I'm sure he'll really be happy with anything, Since you cared so much about his birthday. That's just my personally opinion.
'Something he can unwrap' - A present.
Something that he has alot of interests in.
Something that he wouldn't mind getting.
Something that he's been wanting to have.
Maybe something that could keep with him, Like, A matched ring, A necklace.
If you ever noticed your boyfriend talking about something he wants to have or a place he wants to go that could be the answer.
'I wanna go somewhere meaningful'
A place you both will have fun, Of course.
A place where you'll both make good memories together, Somewhere you both could spend sometimes together.
Remember, That it isn't all about what you give him or where you take him, As long as you both enjoy that day and make good memories together.
Have a great time.
Hope I helped.

So you know he's into sports, so I think the hat or tshirt is a good idea. Even a blanket with his team on it.
I think something meaningful would be a little gift basket full of things you think he'd like.
For Valentines Day last year, that's what I did. I got some candy, and I went to an aisle in the store that had some mini shampoos and cologne and stuff and got some of those because they are cheap and awesome for a gift basket. Even gift cards are nice.
Anyways, little things like that would be awesome. I also made heart shaped brownies and cake pops.
So maybe make him some treats like cookies or brownies, even cupcakes. Guys love food.
If you wanna go out, you could probably plan a date like going out for food. Somewhere in your price range. I wouldn't go out on his birthday if he has plans with family or something but maybe the next day or something.
Or you could make him dinner.
You could buy his favorite TV show on DVD.
Maybe a video game.
If you guys ever wrote notes to each other, maybe take some quotes out of them and make them into a collage with some other memorable things.
You could also make a scrapbook of pictures of the two of you and different things you guys did together.
Or if you don't want to do a scrapbook, you can make a slideshow with songs you both like or something.
If you don't like those ideas, a picture of the two of you would be cute and meaningful. And you could make a homemade card.
Hope these helped!
