Culled: Nigerianeye
Gifting something special to your guy on Valentine’s Day can be a little
tricky. Guys are usually not so forthcoming or particular about what
they want as gifts. But that does not mean they don’t love them. So what
to get for them? Well, let us make your task easy by telling you about
the gifts your guy secretly desires.
Chocolates, roses or soft toys are a complete no-no; they only prove
that you have not put too much thought into what to gift him. If you
want to give him the perfect gift, get something which is really
thoughtful. Here are few ideas for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for
your guy.
1. Sports memorabilia
Is your boyfriend a sports freak? We know when it comes to guys you
might feel this question should not be asked, but we still want you to
think hard and answer. We want you to recollect what sport he actually
likes and what teams or players are his favourites
2. You can gift him the sports memorabilia of his favourite team.
His favourite team’s jersey or an autograph of his favourite player
will definitely make him go over the moon. You can easily find sports
memorabilia from various auction sites. So, start bidding in advance. If
this is out of your reach, then you can gift him match tickets or an
annual subscription to his favourite sports magazine. If nothing else
works, it is easy to find a jersey or jacket with his favourite player’s
number on it.
3. Perfume
Guys love to be pampered just like girls. This is something we know they
would never accept! So, gift him a high-end perfume that he has been
lusting after for ages. Try to figure out his taste, the perfume notes
he prefers, look for his favourite brand and make your choice
accordingly.
If you don’t like his choice of perfume then you gift him something that
you think will make him smell good. Ask a buddy of his to tag along, so
that he can help you make a good choice.
4. Gadgets
Guys love gadgets and they secretly desire for them always. You don’t
need to break your bank account by gifting your boyfriend a high priced
gadget; you can give him something quirky and fun. A water-based alarm
clock, a USB drive in the shape of his favourite super hero or a new set
of stylish noise-cancelling headphones will definitely make him happy.
You can also get some colourful Bluetooth speakers, to add a colourful
spark to his room.
5. Fun things
Try for things that are a little different and fun. Colourful shot
glasses with crazy captions, stylish bottle openers and even stoppers, a
Kamasutra card set, a Swiss knife, darts game or a poker chip set are
some of the fun things which will make your guy’s face light up with
delight. Well, such a gift would also show your man, what a “cool”
girlfriend you are!
6. Chocolates
By chocolates we don’t mean those gifts packs that are available in
supermarkets. Your chocolates need to be a little hatke. After all, they
are for the most hatke person in your life! Premium dark chocolates
stuffed with paan, chilly or saunf can really tingle his taste buds. If
your guy is not too adventurous with his food, you can gift the
traditional chocolates with praline and nuts filling.
7. Dig into his likes
This one depends on how well you really know your man. Think about what
he likes, it can be something completely nerdy or totally luxurious. If
comics are all that your man talks about, get hold of a vintage comic to
surprise him this V-day. If he is obsessed with a music band or a movie
character (does Rocky or Family Guy ring a bell?), gift him a graffiti
tee with his favourite picture or a quote. And, if your sweetheart is
into music, gift him a guitar or a set of drums or limited edition vinyl
records that he has been saving up for.
If your man is obsessed with his work, this is a perfect opportunity for
you to get him a luxurious pen, which would remind him of you even when
he is at work. High-end pens like Mont Blanc and Pierre Cardin can make
any guy swoon. And, fountain pens are really fashionable and are
symbolic of good taste and sophistication.
8. Homemade goodies
If you really cannot afford to gift your guy something expensive, then
whip up something for him at home. Show him that you can be a domestic
goddess by making some chocolate chip cookies. Put them in a tin and
write a cute note for him. You can also create personalised gift cards
for him with ‘gifts’ such as giving him the TV remote for an hour,
breakfast in bed, not making annoying noises when his favourite match is
on, giving him a kiss whenever he demands and so on. He can redeem
these gift cards whenever he likes and you can surprise him all through
the year.
This Valentine’s Day is going to be a pleasant surprise for your guy, we
are sure. What have you decided to gift him? Share your ideas with us
