1Jessie86 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 My boyfriend has been away for a 2 week training (12 hour training days in a tent.) I know he's been working hard so I want to surprise him with something to put him at ease when he returns. He's into living a healthy lifestyle, fitness, reading.. We've been dating for about 4 months. Ideas? Link to post Share on other sites

Art_Critic Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Not a gift idea but as hard as he is working I would think spoiling him somehow would go over real well, maybe a nice shoulder/back rub and a quiet dinner someplace secluded would be cool. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 A home cooked meal & some TLC ought to do the trick. A random gift at 4 months of dating is over the top. Link to post Share on other sites
FilterCoffee Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 A random gift at 4 months of dating is over the top. You really think so? If I got one I'd be happy! You can't go wrong with something for the bedroom. Nothing like some extra luuuvin to make those aches and pains go away Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 FilterCoffee Gifts are delicate subjects. You never want to make the other person feel like you are trying to buy their affection. My husband is a Marine. He would have hated receiving a gift only 4 months in unless it was his birthday. I don't know any of his Marine brothers who would have liked it either. If he was actually deployed, I was going to suggest some candy, toilet paper, baby wipes sunscreen. I'm usually pretty good at gifts but I can't think of a single thing that the OP could get her military BF that he'd like that wouldn't be over the top at this early stage. I do think he'd appreciate a good home cooked meal of his favorite (or a nice steak if she doesn't know his favorite), some dessert & some TLC -- back rub plus some good lovin'. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
