Doing sweet things for your partner is a given, but it’s hard to decide what you should do, when every other idea seems to have already been done.
But that’s the thing: you don’t need to be original to make your guy feel special. You just have to follow through and make sure he gets exactly what he deserves: a heap of love and affection from you for being the sweetest boyfriend ever. So, how can you do that?Finally, the moment you’ve been waiting for: here is your cheat sheet to being the sweetest partner your boyfriend has ever had.
# Buy him something he needsSpecial gifts are all well and good, but it’s okay to buy something practical, too. Your boyfriend will appreciate this much more than something decorative or consumable because it shows you care about the little things.
# Treat him to a fancy dinnerIt may seem generic, but guys rarely get the royal treatment because they’re usually expected to be the ones doling out the cash. Make your man feel like a prince–but don’t spoil him too much, okay?
# Take him out to test-drive a sports car
There are places where you can let your man drive the car of his dreams, such as car dealerships and race tracks. There are tracks that cater to the public for this very reason. Exciting activities like these can be really sweet, especially for your boyfriend.
# Visit him at work bearing treatsYou can opt to bring some for his co-workers as well, but make sure he gets the best ones from the basket. It’s a nice change from his mundane workday and a pleasant surprise.
# Go shopping with him
It’s your turn to sit on an uncomfortable bench with three other people carrying shopping bags. Take your man out to shop at places he likes, like male clothing boutiques, outdoor merchandise stores, and hobby shops.
# Swap roles with himBeing in a relationship means you have certain roles. If, for example, your guy usually drives, you can offer to do it for a week just to give him a break. Take the reins during dates, so he’ll feel less obligated to plan everything. Do the little things that make him a good boyfriend, so you can show him how great a partner you are.
# Host a guy’s night for himYour man will appreciate the effort you took to prepare a relaxing night for him and his friends. Prepare their snacks and make sure they have everything they need, like games, a pay-per-view subscription to a sports game, or even just a large bottle of Jack.
# Agree to have a marathon of the stuff he wants to watchYou probably take turns watching shows and movies you each like, but for once, let him choose an array of movies and shows you can watch for a whole day at home.
# Give him flowersHe won’t expect it, so the gesture will probably be even more special. Don’t worry about whether or not it’s okay to give flowers to a guy; nobody cares about that anymore.
