I want to do something really nice for him...HELP ME PLEASE!!!

[StarryEyes]

DB is pretty down in the dumps lately, and he's not himself anymore. I want to cheer him up and send him another package.

I know Halloween is approaching, and i would send him tons of treats, but he's not much of a sugar person...he can't stand sweet foods!!! Haha, can you believe it?!!

So i don't know what to send in his package?!! Does anyone have any ideas? It doesn't have to be Halloween related, just anything...something to cheer him up!!

Does he like scary or cheesy horror films? You could send some of those and some popcorn (the already popped kind)

I always like to send stand up comedy dvds or cds, to make db laugh, silly toys, or maybe joke stuff from a party store. db will laugh about almost anything, but still gets down sometimes too. i know his number 1 request from me is music and that always gets him excited.

Aww! Well he is lucky to have such a great girlfriend who cares about him so much! If it were me I would send him photos of you, make him a blanket, or something very personal with a hand-written letter acknowleging that you know he's feeling down and that you love him! You care about him! He's your sunshine..(or however you do feel that's appropriate) That kind of honesty is beautiful. And when I'm down knowing that I am loved is wonderful.
Thats my suggestion sweetie. I'm sure whatever you decide to do for your man will bring a smile to his face.

DAMN, Are men are lucky to have girls like us!

I'm pretty sure he does, we've just never talked about horror/scary movies much. We talk more about crime/action/historical/based on true event movies more. I wouldn't mind sending him some scary movies, i just don't know what movies to send? lol...any advice on a good flick or two?

Yeah, i was thinking about burning him some cd's because it's been a long time since i sent him some new music. Not sure if anyone else sent him any, but i doubt it. So i think i'll do that for sure. What kind of silly toys can i send him?

They sure are lucky to have girls like us I've already sent him a blanket previously which he loved so much! He has tons of pictures of me lol...i send them to him when we chat on IM. Hmm, gosh i'm so out of ideas!! I don't know what to send?!

well, if you havent done something like it alreayd, you can send a "favorites" package. List al of his favorite things and put them in a box... like i did: his favorite candy, a few small bottles of his favorite soda they dont have over there, a little matchbox version of his car(he loves his car), a magazine or two on his hobby, a dvd of his favorite tv show, some healthy snacks (he's trying to be healthy), and some little halloween costume things so him and his buddies could mess around with them (fake mustache, big glasses, fake teeth, a coconut bra..) thats my idea!
