If you want to make your boyfriend feel special, his birthday is the day to do it. Sure, a gifts are nice, but a gesture is something he won’t forget. Show him you put time and effort into giving him the perfect present and birthday experience.
We’ve come up with some fun ideas to make your boyfriend’s birthday something special. It will be a day he’ll never forget, thanks to you!
Here are our 8 best birthday gifts for your boyfriend:
1. Treat him
Why not cook your fella his favourite meal? Or if you have an irrational fear of pots and pans, take him out to dinner and pick up the tab. There’s a reason they say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Choose a restaurant he’s always wanted to try, but perhaps never had the opportunity. The fact that you paid attention and remembered will make the surprise so much more special.
2. Get crafty
Remember when a sign of true love was the gift of a mixed tape? Get with the times “ make your boyfriend the 2013 equivalent with a personalized iTunes playlist, or design a customized photo album or calendar and order it online. Gifts like these show you’ve put in time and effort, which he’s bound to appreciate. For more creative birthday gift ideas, read: Creative Gifts for Your Boyfriend.
3. Plan a surprise
An oldie but a goodie, a surprise party is the perfect way to celebrate his big day. Even if it’s not a milestone birthday, treat it like one by choosing a fun theme. Is he into Star Wars or Football? The more personalized it is, the more he will appreciate the thought you put into his special day.
4. Try something new
If he’s always talked about wanting to go white-water rafting or going to the symphony, organize it. Trying something new together is a great way to bond, and it shows that you not only listen to him, but that you show initiative and make things happen.
5. Give him a year
It’s the gift that keeps on giving: sign him up for a monthly subscription of his favourite magazine, or enrol him in a wine club that sends bottles and information throughout the year. In addition to honing his hobby, it’ll be a monthly reminder of his lovely and thoughtful girlfriend.
6. Have a lazy day
Going all-out for a birthday can be fun, but sometimes a low-key affair is more in order. Grab a few DVD sets of the show he’s been wanting to catch up on, his favourite foods, and spend your day lounging and bonding in bed together. For more unique ideas for his birthday, read: Unusual Birthday Gifts for Your Boyfriend.
7. Be sexy
Turn up the heat in the bedroom and put him in charge on his birthday night. Whether it’s new lingerie or indulging his every fantasy, trying something new and exciting will end his birthday in a way he won’t forget!
8. Get away
What better way to celebrate his big day than with a mini-break? Organize a romantic getaway for the two of you, or invite his friends and/or family to rendezvous somewhere special. You’ll make incredible memories, and he’ll appreciate the effort you took to plan it.

Lol my bf isnt the mushy type. I think he’d rather stick to going out with the guys to the strip club around his birthday. He doesn’t get many days off of work so usually cant ro anything on his birthday.
My boyfriend’s bday is 10 days before Xmas…i think i was get him a session at the chiropractor and take him out to dinner and a movie…i might even drive…he is a truck driver and i think that would help loosen up some muscles..i think he will enjoy it.
Check Laki Naturals website. They have bathing epsom salts for men that smell like citrus beer (Aloha Brew) and also Tobacco flowers (Island Warrior). I bought these for my husband for his birthday and he loves to soak after working out now – and smells great! They are just epsom salts to soothe achey muscles, sea salts and some essential oils. Its a great unique gift to give him “me time” and also smell great for you! 😉

The best one was: a poetry about love and passion, from my ex-boyfriend from a prison
The second one, was from another ex-boyfriend: A diary about all our trips around Europe, with the small pics of each place on it and some memories written. He also let some free space between each trip for me to wright. This supposed to be continued from my birthdays to his birthdays, but unfortunately we are not together anymore.
Hope you will find attractive

you can give him that
My favorite thing from this article is this… Sexy Chef: Make your man’s favorite meal for his birthday, and let him just sit back and enjoy. The special twist? Wear nothing but a pair of heels, and apron, and some sexy panties. Even if you’re a crummy cook, chances are he won’t notice (if you even make it to the dinner table, that is).
You could also do a run up to his birthday that week & send a small gift everyday .. Depends what country he is in I’m sure you can find local websites for shopping
And also tell some nice and cheap sites for shopping.
but the best u can get ur bf is just being right there beside him on his special day! all the best to u all in finding the perfect gift.
The day of his actual birthday (wednesday) I will present him with a red velvet cake birthday cake and chocolate chicken (a spicy Latin meal that is amazing and worked for me on valentines day as well).
On the Saturday following his birthday, I’m taking him and 8 of our friends paintballing. This will precede a night of partying of course.
I’m a dedicated believer in not giving gifts, but experiences. Boyfriends will get tired of toys you give them but not of memories.
