Boyfriend leaving for college. Any ideas for goodbye presents?


Question Posted Thursday June 4 2015, 11:55 pm

So, my boyfriend is a senior in high school, and I'm a freshman. My parents were previously begrudgingly okay with us dating, but due to a rather silly misunderstanding, they now forbid it. I don't want to go into the details; really, it's irrelevant. My boyfriend is super smart and nerdy and cute, and I really like him, though I'll admit the idea of a long distance relationship really worries me. He'll forget all about me at college. I know he'd say he wouldn't, but it always works that way. And, I know- my parents say no. But they literally don't understand; they refuse to. And this guy was my first kiss, and it's really the first serious relationship I've ever had, and I won't let that end just because my parents forbid it. I was friends with him for this whole year before we began dating, though I had a crush on him almost all year. We just started dating earlier this month. He's going to college far enough away that it'll be inconvenient but very possible for him to come back home regularly, so I really want to give him a few cutesy little presents to remember me by, you know? He'll come home monthly, he said, but I want to do something like that, and get him to do the same. Any ideas as to what I should do? He loves Pokemon, but I know nothing about it, and I want it to make him think of me. I know all about music, but he knows nothing. We both like Magic the Gathering, and do academic team, and basically being mutually nerdy. I want it to be sweet and stuff, you know? Any input greatly appreciated.

Do you have lots of photos of the two of you together? If so, put them into a mini photo album to give him. It need not be photos of you but familiar haunts, favorite places around town, a photo of the school, favorite pizza joint, that weird statue in the part you hung out at, stuff for him to look at when homesick. Other than that, any store bought gift should do, just write your sentiments in the card that goes along with.
