What is the Best Gift for My Boyfriend? 4 Ways to Select the Perfect Gift
Choose the Gift According to the Occasion
You can’t buy happiness, but you can definitely gift it! The quest to find a gift begins with the occasion. Your gift must be well suited to the occasion. While some generic gifts are fit for all occasions, you definitely don’t want to get something for your loved one which he has got a thousand times. Handcrafted gifts are also very suitable for all occasions. The creative touch of the story behind a handcrafted gift is part of the gift itself. The time and attention invested in an item triumphs a trip to the mall any day.
For the person who owns everything, spare the pain of finding the next trendy gadget. Instead, go for the gift that allows the mental escape to a beautiful, exotic destination. Presentation is everything! From the initial glance of the surprise to the unveiling of what’s inside, the gift needs to be jaw-dropping. What will he remember later? Give him the moment he will talk about for a lifetime. Give your boyfriend happiness.
Buying Gifts From Reliable Stores is Important
Go through these tell-tale signs that can help you identify an original from a counterfeit, and make sure you are not taken for a ride. Unreal discounts, flimsy packaging, grammatical and spelling mistakes, omissions and mismatch context, flawed fonts, no contact details are all big no no for online shopping. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! Shopping at a reliable store ensures an efficient return policy in case of wrong size or faulty product. Always make sure that you make purchase from a reliable store only.
What Does Your Boyfriend Like? Make a Checklist of His Preferences
Choosing the perfect gift isn’t easy. Even if you know the person really well, there could be some roadblocks along the way, like what he wants is out of your budget or it’s out of stock. People who want to give the perfect gift have to plan ahead and listen to any hints that the person they are buying the gift for may offer. When choosing a gift, you have to take into consideration the passions and interests of your boyfriend. Talk to him and find out what else he likes apart from the obvious things you already know. Even though you may have known him for a while, see if you can discover anything new. If you still can’t anything, try a store gift card so he can buy whatever he feels like. The mistake most people make is buying something that they would like, instead of thinking about what their recipient would like.
Nice Gifts Don't Mean Expensive Gifts
When your partner says 'you really shouldn’t have' on opening that expensive gift, he meant it. Don’t feel guilty about setting a gift budget. You have to live within your means. Put more time into choosing a gift that the recipient will really like. Eventually what really matters to your loved one is whether he felt like he’d been thought of – and understood – when the gift was chosen. If you believe you haven’t got enough time to shop for something special and so instead you’re reaching for a thermonuclear price tag to get you off the hook, think about how long it’d take you to earn the money you’d spend on that costly quick-fix gift. Like this you may ‘buy’ several hours and hence a better, cheaper, and more appreciated present. Try to make something happen – an experience or a one-off event – if you really want your gift to be remembered.

Surprise Gifts Without Reason Can Add a Spark to Your Relationship
We all love the feeling of discovering a Rs.100 bill stashed in a trouser pocket. Even if Rs.100 isn’t the same as winning a lottery, the feeling of surprise is similar, and it feels awesome! What if you could give that fantastic feeling to someone else?
A study from the University of Pennsylvania discovered that human brains are hardwired to enjoy unexpected rewards. In the study, when people received an unexpected gain, the neurons in the substantia nigra (which play a significant role in reward) 'exhibited significantly higher firing rates'. In other words, that awesome feeling you get when you get a surprise is hardwired into your brain. Little gifts and surprises are just a wonderful way of telling somebody that you love them, and if the surprise is made without an occasion it gives a heightened sense of love and belongingness which the recipient can cherish for life.
