I've been dating someone for a little over 1/2 a year. This guy has $$ and isn't shy to spend it. He has everything that he could ever want, and then some. Very different from me.... Not only am I broke, but I'm also a minimalist. His birthday is coming up in a few weeks and I would like to do something, just not sure what. He doesn't expect anything special from me and knows my financial status. Still though, I don't want the day to go by without me doing something special. Any ideas??

This book feels good in your hands. The paper is heavyweight, and the illustrations flow perfectly.

How about a picture of him in a nice frame?
A CD with music that you love that tells him a message (when DH and I were long distance dating I sent him a CD with s*xy songs)?
A day where you plan everything - it won't matter if you do free/low-cost activities just take all the planning/deciding off of him and make it special (I brought an old boyfriend a cake I made, a bottle of champagne, candles and music to share in the hot tub after he was off of work, he was really touched)?
Good luck. Once I figure out what to do I have so much fun planning it. I just had a surprise 50th birthday party for DH that overwhelmed him.
