I say keep it simple. No guy can say he doesnt like flashlights. Make it fancy though - it needs to have a flexible neck or a truck horn incorporated.
One of those flashlight/radio/ thingies that doesn’t run on batteries or electricity, you have to crank it up. It’s for like when you’re in a tornado, or having car trouble, or just to say “hey lookatme!! I have a radio/flashlight/thingie you have to crank!”
Also recharges by solar power, apparently. That’s sorta geeky, right?
Get him a “how to” book on something he’s at least mildly interested in, like “How To Build A Guitar In 6,873 Easy Steps”. He’ll be flattered that you think he can actually build a cool guitar from scratch, and he might even be inspired to do it and use it to write cheesy love ballads.
Get a brazillian wax. All of it off. He’ll love it. I know I did when the gf did it.
Take him out to a nice dinner, buy lots of drinks for the both of you. Take him back to your place, put on some oh-so-sexy lingere, and then perform several nasty sexual favors that he doesn’t normally get, ie, take the sex up a notch. If you do something nasty that he hasn’t yet done with you, he will love it. I don’t know how adventurous you are, so it’s all relative.
I guarantee that he will think it’s the best gift ever.
Oh, and maybe talk really dirty to him. And, make him feel like the man, too. Act as though he was the one that did you a favor. He’ll feel so awesome.
Not to bring up a great debate or anything but…
Why is everybody assuming that this couple is sexually active? It’s possible, and totally acceptable, IMO, that they’re not screwing.
Ding ding ding we have a winner. And if he already has that, the Two Towers Extended Edition when it comes out.
Plus, sex.
