Hi guys! My boyfriend quit smoking at the beginning of this month, April first. He mainly did it for me, I didn't like it and I want to keep him around as long as possible...obviously. So, when he reaches his one month mark of not smoking, I want to do something special for him but I can't really think of anything that I'm really stoked about doing for him, to really exemplify my love and appreciation.
So, if any of you guys have ideas, I would greatly appreciate it! I was thinking a little gift - he's been wanting a smart watch lately so I was thinking of looking into getting the one he has bookmarked on his amazon wish list. He just got a new car, I wanted to take it out and fill his tank for him so he didn't have to do that. Maybe bake him something. I just want to do something for him that really shows how much I appreciate him doing this for me and congratulate him for making it a month and for many months to come.
Again, any help is appreciated! I'm 21 and he is 23.

In fact it might make him feel that you will expect lavish gifts in the event that you do something that pleases him and then you have created a very uncomfortable dynamic that will be very stressful to continue. I think a quiet dinner where you express your appreciation with words is all that this situation calls for. I would save the smart watch for a birthday or Christmas gift! I am sure he is already knows he did the right thing by quitting! [ GiddyGeezer's advice column | Ask GiddyGeezer A Question ]

This is something all couples should do to celebrate something special plus it will definitely set the mood to give him a smart watch at the diner. If you do this give him the watch with desert it add more sweetness to the night.( no pun intended) Though I wouldn't go over the top showering him with this and that, but I definitely think the watch is a great idea plus a great romantic dinner, that would make him happy.

Put the picture at the bottom of the box, then take him to a park on a day out and get him to open the box and watch all the butterflies flutter out! and take photos of him while its happening too if you want!
