For my birthday last week, my boyfriend showed up in person. He lied the whole week before saying he "forgot" to ask off from work and that they scheduled him to work on my birthday, so he wouldn't be able to drive out and see me. In reality he had taken my birthday and the following day off. When I came back from class the morning of my birthday, he was standing there, shirtless, and holding my birthday cake. Which he also had preordered I might add. He thoroughly thought this out before hand and kept me completely in the dark. It was awesome, I was so thrilled to find out he came out and did all that for me. He had 2 regular actual gifts too, but the fact that he was there was better than any gift.
Other gifts I love very much: the promise ring he gave me 2 months ago... and my KKG diamond and sapphire lavalier. He wanted to get me a Kappa lavalier, but didn't want it to be just any lavalier, he wanted it to be one I'd reallly treasure. I rarely take it off now.
On the cheaper side of gifts, earlier in our dating, I had just written a 10 page paper on the game of Go, and he got me a Go board set randomly about a month later. I was ecstatic about that because I'd been trying to learn the game, and now I actually had the game board and pieces.
He's so sweet...
