The Non-Boyfriendless/Girlfriendless Club

Hmm, I feel bad is 2 months really important, shall I do something? or make him something. Mine is in about 2 weeks time, it's the day after I come back from a week holiday away from him. Oh dear :nonono: what am I gonna do? I was gonna let him come and meet my oldest friend on that day. I guess I could make him something, eeek :blink: or will he think that lame? or too soon? Oh dear, I am in trouble.
 
Yeah I think he would do, but just in case I will bring him something back from where I'm going and then it can be a present for both :smiley: aww that's really sweet merry, I wish I knew how to make a cake, lol :lol:

:lol: Definitely don't stress. A lot of couples don't celebrate "anniversaries" until they get into the upper months, or they wait until it's a true anniversary ;)

If you celebrated every week or month then it could get kinda pricey and would take some of the specialness away from it. It becomes too routine and less of a surprise if you do it every month. I just like the thought of doing something really special every 6 months or year.

My boyfriend and I exchanged sweet cards and little gifts for our 6 months. And then did something bigger for our year (well, he had to anyways because our anniversary is also my birthday :P ). But once we hit a year it seemed silly to celebrate a year and a half so we're just going to do it every year now. But our 2 year is coming up later this month ^_^

But if you do still want to do something, I'd go with something simple and thoughtful. Never underestimate the power of a card. Even if it's store bought just writing something of your own will mean a lot. Or you could make your own. The one I made my boyfriend for our year anniversary was decorated with scrapbooking stuff. I had different stickers on there that represented the weekend we first met...like a monopoly board because we stayed up all night playing monopoly, a videotape because we had a "movie night", and basketball equpiment because we initially met playing basketball. Something like that is really simple, but packs a big punch.
 
Thanks guys for all of your responses :smiley:

they say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, so cake sounds like a really good idea.

Unforunately he doesn't eat cake, it's really strange, he's not a big cake person.

Yeah I mean we do actually spend the day together but ... you know, it isn't a present or a card, just like a cinema trip or a meal together. You're right I guess it does take the specialness out of it. I might bring him something back from my holiday anyway, just cos I like doing that. Aaww that sounds so sweet that card for your year, I have actually kept everything like that like cinema tickets and when we got stopped by the police once cos we hung round in gatwick airport to long, lol, we were just laying on the sofas with no luggage, so they thought that was suspicious, lol 😆
 
I'm so upset with my stupid boyfirend right now :cry: I havent got to talk to him in forever because we've been so busy and the past 5 or 6 times he said he would call, he didnt. I know this cant be a good sign :cry:
 
You're right. I went to see him a few days after I wrote that and things were fine :D He has been very attentive lately. I was just overeacting. :2love:
 
i love how guys dont even realize that their wording is SO important...i mean if someone says "we really need to discuss things" it does not sound good!...boys are silly
 
I don't think they realise quite how sensitive and how we pick up on the smallest of things, like I just got really suspicious, cos his friend was upset and about something and I asked him what he said to her and he said something like "am I obliged to answer that question" which makes it sound like it's something he doesn't wanna tell you, is keeping from you and will naturally make you suspicious and think all sorts of things.
 
Lol, what really gets to me the most is when I annoy him I really really apologize and he doesn't like forgive me, he just says it doesn't matter, it really gets to me, and I reckon he knows it.
 
Nate calls me randomly sometimes and apoligizes for being a jerkass (that's our word), when he really didn't do anything wrong. He jokes around and i know that, but i like the fact that he thinks about things and doesn't want to say anything that would upset me.

And with the whole anniversary thing...i don't think buying gifts takes the specialness out of it. It's kind of hard for me to overdue him, since he's bought me a ring, a necklace, and my favorite perfume (that isn't cheap). The closest i got was buying Sox tickets. It's so much easier for a man to shop for a woman.
