Do boyfriends EXPECT a valentine's day gift?
My boyfriend and I have been together for a few months and I was wanting some opinion on whether boyfriends expect a gift for valentine's day or not. and if so, what kind of stuff do they want? He's 20 and for as long as I've known him he pretends valentine's day is a dumb holiday, yet he's suddenly driving many miles out of his way just to spend the day with me... So if I should be getting or doing something for him I need to think of something QUICK! Thanks

I hate to answer a question with a question, but, Do you expect a Valentine's day gift? You could always ask him what he wants. That way he gets the clue that you consider Valentine's Day to be a "gift giving" holiday. A good gift for a "20-something" is always an iTunes gift card or a movie he really likes (My sons and husband like The Hangover). I guess it depends on your budget. My mother always used to suggest that I give a framed picture of myself. Sounds cheesy to me, but I'm self-conscious. There's a photographer here that will do a portrait that looks like it's from the 1940's or 50's so it's kind of retro-cool. However, it can be rather pricey. You could always cook dinner for him or bake him some brownies or cookies.
Hope this helps and good luck.
He should already know the meaning of valantines day how could he not these days with all the merchandising of cards ,chocolates and big signs in every major shop declaring largley feb 14th.My birthday is also on valantines day and for the last two years my partner hasnt made a big deal out of it for either occasion.I came straight out this year and said to him that for valantines i wanted him to be romantic and plan a night/day for us.I would much rather thought put into it (he should know me by now)then money or a gift as a memory lasts much more the a present or a card any day.Just between you and me however i doubt anything will be different this year.
Personally Im alright with just spending the day together with whoever I am with at the time, gifts aren't that important to me it's the heart and passion that counts. How about asking him if he would like a valentines present.
If you expect something, shouldn't he? Valentine's Day is no big deal, so get him a card and maybe some little something. It's not as if he was your fiance or husband or anything, but a little gift would be nice.
NO, NO, NO - however, some of the younger guys may expect a small gift. Just make him a V-Card by hand and include a picture of both of y'all. If he knows what is good for him ... he will love it. Always remember, if you want a guy in your life, great ... but you never "NEED" a guy in your life.
maybe ask if theres anything special he wants, like the other person said, like new shoes or something
if not dw, just make sure its a nice romantic day, you dont have to spend shed loads of money to be romantic =] ...maybe cook dinner for him, it doesnt have to be posh or anything special, even just a mircowave meal could do... just you make it all for a treat for him after his long drive to see you ^_^
i dont think they do cuz most of them dont expect to get you anything.. just depends on the guy but if you do dont get anything expensive just simple and something he always talks about or if he wants a car get him like a little version of it and yeah it just depends on your guys type of relationship
Have fun shopping
i got my boyfriend a video game
but theyre really expensive, especially if your man's not into it...
think about casual things he'll need or use all the time...
like axe body spray, if he has piercings maybe a lip ring or two.....
a jacket, shoes, maybe even a haircut !
it all really depends on you and your relationship :]
goodluck hun,
