Take Care of Your Man on His Birthday

So your man's birthday is coming up.. and you have NO idea what to do for him or what to get him. Now, although every man is different there are a few basic items that will gurantee to put a smile on his face.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • His favorite food
  • Creativeness
  • For people who drink, a nice bottle of champagne, or his favorite liquor.
  1. Step 1
     

    Start preparing a couple months ahead of time. Keep your ears open for things he may mention he wants or needs. Keep your eyes open for things he needs, but says nothing about. To show that you're paying attention to him and his life will make him appreciate you even more. The ideas that you gather, make sure you write down. This way you won't forget them.

  2. Step 2
     

    Now, once you have an idea of what to get him. You need to start brainstorming of what to do for him on his birthday. What kind of person is he? Does he prefer to be around a lot of people? Then throw a surprise party for him. Does he prefer more one on one time and staying home? Then cook him his favorite meal or take him to his favorite restaurant. Be open minded and flexible. Remember throughout the whole thing, that this is HIS birthday.. No matter how much fun you'll think YOU'LL have, make sure you're putting his needs first.

  3. Step 3
     

    Now once you have a few ideas of what to get him and what to do for him, now comes the next step in planning. Financing. It depends on what you're doing, but it doesn't have to cost more than your budget to be nice and enjoyable. If it is going to be a little more pricey then use the couple months before his birthday to start saving.

  4. Step 4
     

    Now I mentioned in the beginning that there are a few basic items that all men can appreciate no matter what their personality or interests are. It includes amazing food and giving up a little booty. haha You have those two things and you will be good to go. The more planned and prepared you are for his special night the more he'll appreciate it.

Tips & Warnings
  • Most men appreciate one large thing, rather than several smaller things.
  • The saying is true: The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
  • I know it's hard when it's your money, but if you care about this person, money is just a materialistic thing. Try not to be cheap!
  • Give yourself time for errors.
  • Have backup plans for the just in case scenarios.
