7 Awesome Gift Ideas For The Man In Your Life

Whether he is a millennial tech geek gadget guru, culinary genius, sports guy or just the guy who happens to have everything, buying a gift for your guy can be difficult. You can't go wrong when you choose a gift by personality and hobby, and by knowing what your guy likes or needs will let him know how much you care. The majority of the men I have dated were sports guys, and surprising them with Super Bowl or World Series tickets were always a big hit. I feel that men appreciate the simple gestures and feel cared for when you are thinking about them and do thoughtful things. So, if you need some ideas for a birthday or the holidays that will be coming up, below are some gift ideas for your guy.

1. Throw a surprise party

Throw him a surprise party and get his old high school friends and other friends he has not seen in a while to show up and turn it up on his special day. If you can't get everyone together, you can do a group video message by contacting all his friends and family members to record a small video. Your guy will be surprised to see all of the closest people in his life all on a video together.

2. Cook him dinner

A home cooked meal is simple and will make your guy feel cared for when you are taking the time to cook his favorite dish. Make a date night at home he will never forget, and take care of every detail.

3. Be his personal stylist

Take him shopping and show him how to dress and look great. Not all, but most guys are not paying attention to style trends and do not know how to match their clothes up. They will end up having a wardrobe that looks great on them and they will look hot for you.

4. Craft a coupon book

Put together a coupon book...sex is one way to spend time with your guy and make fun sexy memories together. Be creative like putting together I.O.U. sex coupons. I can guarantee he will be wanting to redeem them!

5. Indulge his sports team obsession

Take him to one of his favorite sporting events, or buy the tickets and give him a night out with one of his buddies. You can also search for something rare and unique like signed memorabilia from his favorite athlete or his favorite team.

6. Subscribe to his favorite food

Sign him up for a beer, wine or scotch of the month club. Their favorite one will get delivered to their doorstep once a month, and they get to try all different varieties and become the best at-home bartender.

7. Pack your bags

Go away together...find an affordable vacation to a place you both have been wanting to visit and go. You will have the memory of an amazing vacation place that you spent quality time together at.

I recently found a great website that makes it easy to get a gift for your guy - check it out here at. They say 'no' to ugly neckties, cologne samplers and executive trinkets. They don't save wrapping paper, they don't do ribbons. They are Man Crates, and deliver awesome gifts for men. Check them out to find a great gift idea for your guy.

They say it is the thought that counts, but when you put some thought and consideration and have taken the time to think about your guy and their personal interests, then it is from the heart and your guy will love that you did this all for him to make him feel special.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
