Top 10 Birthday Gifts for Boyfriend of 2 Months and How to Balance Presents in a New Relationship

Getting a gift for someone you just started dating is hard. 2 months is a very short period of time to go for an expensive gift. You're not close enough to plan a trip to Goa together, nor are you close enough to give him an electric tweezer to take care of his stray hairs.

But just because you aren't comfortable manscaping him yet, doesn't mean you have to get him something lame for his birthday. And no, you cannot just get him a boring box of chocolates. You're an original lady, so no excuses!

We have some tips that will help you choose the perfect gift for him on his birthday.

Your relationship is still very new. So instead of an expensive or extravagant gift go for something that will be of use to him on a daily basis. Do not go over the top and let the love blind your practical senses. Be rational in your approach and decide on a budget before you make your purchase. Thre are plenty of reasonably priced gifts available online that would impress the new man in your life. Things like decorative lamps, wallets, mobile covers etc. make great birthday gifts. Alternatively, you could also pick out a gift basket or hamper with all his favourite food items, flavoured teas, coffee, gourmet cookies, chocolates or grooming products. Try to keep it below Rs.2000.

After dating for 2 months you may or may have some ideas about what his interests are. If you don't, then try to pick up things by observing him a little more. Does he always tune into the sports channel whenever there is a football game? Or Is he a big fan of the Beatles and likes to strum on his guitar in his free time? Does he love to take you to new restaurants on every date and seems enthusiastic about trying new dishes?

These are just a few things that can help you decide on a gift that will touch your boyfriend's heart. For a music lover, a band t-shirt of his favourite music group or a capo for his guitar would be a great inexpensive gift. If he is a gadget freak get him something electronic if he is a bookworm get him a book or e-bookreader.

Things like laptop bags, watches, wallets, belts, cologne, shaving kit, sunglasses etc. are examples of gifts that he will definitely use and appreciate.
