Dear Mama Griever,My lover is planning to get me a gaming system instead of flowers and chocolate, because flowers die and chocolate will make me fat. What is the appropriate gift to give to him? (Preferably under $300. On a budget and all)
I assume your lover has always been a male, right? At no point did he receive a sex change to
become a male, yes?
If so, you may want to get him an electric razor, there are many that are good not only for trimming/shaping facial hair, but also can work on the head and on the groin area (if you prefer the smoother look.) If you guys are over 21 year olds, a grooming kit is another, highly-mature alternative for couples.
Video games are always welcome, and Dark Souls 2 is coming out in March, so if he's the patient type, a preorder for Dark Souls 2 would probably be appreciated. But not many people are patient, I realize. Men look good in bathrobes and they're nice to lounge around in.
If you two are sexually active, there are fun "novelty" gifts like edible lingerie.
If you're the DIY type, you can make your own pair:
Another bacon-related product is an As-Seen-On-TV product called Bacon Bowl that makes, you guessed it, bowls out of bacon.
Does he drink? If so, get him a beer holster, men can be lazy and holding a beer is sometimes a lot of effort. Particularly if you've already had a few beers already. Or if you have a tendency to lose shit.
