Since I already bought gifts for my parents and brother, the only one I have left to buy for is my boyfriend. We haven't been dating that long yet (1 month this Friday), but he always tells me he already has "a ton of ideas" for me and I feel bad because I don't really have one yet! Girls are much easier to buy for, I think. So guys- what do you like to get from your girlfriend/wife? I need some ideas!

Cute romantic gifts are fine and encouraged, but nothing too sexual would be good considering it's way too soon for that for us.

Thanks for your help. :)

EDIT: He's a big gamer. He has every console and every game for the 360, Kinect, and Wii. That's his main passion. But considering he HAS every game, I'm not sure what I could get him in that area (besides the controller GoldenCyn suggested).

If he plays call of duty black ops, get him the limited edition wireless controller for the 360, don't know if they have one for ps3.

He's a biiig gamer. He has every console imaginable, and every game for Xbox and Wii (plus the new Kinect). He probably doesn't have that controller. But I'll google it and next time I'm over there I'll be on the lookout for it. Thanks for the suggestion!
 
As a fellow guy, I can tell you guys like cool/useful gifts much more than romantic/cute ones. Your best bet is to talk to his siblings and/or friends to get a better idea of what your gift options are.

This is the kind of advice I was looking for! Thanks. I could definitely ask his sister, and I was planning on it before I bought or did anything for sure.
 
And always remember, no matter how young or old, boy's love their toys!

One of the Coolest Christmas presents I got from a girlfriend (back in the stone ages) was a fully illustrated Coffee Table Book about the history of Looney Tunes. I never would have bought it for myself, but I still have it and I've read it several times.
 
ideally, id love to have another moment with a loved one that just recently passed away.

materialistically, i'd like out of the ordinary gifts- like mixed CD's, homemade cookies, and framed old photos.

He loved Power Rangers as a kid (gag) so I wonder if I could find something vintage about that show for him.

I'm really sorry about your loved one. It's so hard to lose someone, particularly around a holiday.
 
If it's a gun fanatic like me, a gun related thing, if other, i'd do a phone, maybe a pair of Bluetooth headset? or a phone he really wants?
