So I'm sitting in a Caribou Coffee where my boyfriend works flirting like it's the first time we've ever met. What sweet things do you guys do your for special someone?

Oh god. It's so cute. We're playing a prank on his co-workers who we're trying to make thing it's just a random encounter because we're weird like that.

My partner always complains that all we get in the mail is junk. So I write little love notes and mail them at random times. Also, he hasn't clipped his own toenails in over six years. Every other Sunday night I take care of it for him.

A little ew, I agree, but that comes with the territory in being with someone you love. You're a good bf.

So I ended up helping him close the store and set up for the next day. Followed by sex. soooo much sex.

Hah, we're exactly the opposite. My boyfriend and I bicker like an old married couple; always have, almost since we got together (it's been 2.5 years now).

On our first date, I found out my current guy hasn't played portal 2. Had to fix that one with a quick steam purchase. Problem is, now I keep him too busy to play it. First world problems. ;)

Ha! I work at a Caribou. No flirting from me, though. Well, not usually. And not successfully. So I guess that just leaves me with, "Ha! I work at a Caribou."

I try to live up to my flair; I like to be as romantic as much as possible. I was dating my last boyfriend during Easter and he was bummed because he couldn't go home for the holiday due to schoolwork. I picked up a stuffed rabbit, a chocolate Easter bunny, and a card telling him how cute he is, from his "not-so-secret" admirer and put it on his car outside his house. I then texted him saying that my friend was looking to buy a Cavalier (his kind of car), and asked for him to take a few pictures so I could show my friend what they look like, which of course forced him to walk out to his car.
A thoughtful man is a sexy man. He's also a man that is gonna get laid...hard. At least in my book.
I like your book!
I like reading books. =P
You. I like you.
Upvote for your username! When I'm dating someone, they're extremely special to me. Therefore, I like to make them feel as special as they are. I also like to be creative, so I have lots of stories.
Thanks!
I know exactly what you mean. I like to do the same with guys I date. It's so unfortunate when people don't know how to be romantic, or even worse, when people don't know how to appreciate it. Good on you for knowing how to do both. :)
I definitely don't do anything romantic with the expectation of receiving anything in return, or for the recipient to be overly appreciative, but I've dated a few guys that almost expected it, and it was really upsetting.

Alright, well some of these are cheesy because I was really young.
My last girlfriend was the most serious I ever got with a girl. I was still in the closet, and honestly thought we'd get married. For our one year anniversary, I gathered all of the important things I'd collected: movie stub from the night I kissed her for the first time, restaurant receipt from the night I told her I loved her, etc. I then took baby pictures of her and I, and had them lead to a picture we took together. I also really like to cook (and it helps because money is usually tight), so I cooked her favorite meal - fettuccine alfredo with a pizza cookie for dessert.
For my first boyfriend, I wanted to go all out for our first Valentine's Day. I knew he had to work all day that day, so I went and got flowers, a teddy bear, and his favorite chocolates. I made a full plate of chocolate covered strawberries, and made his favorite food (I can't for the life of me remember what it was now). As a gift, I took this picture of us, put it in black and white, and in red letters on the picture put something like, "I will love you until the end of time," and then put it in a frame I'd decorated myself. The last thing was a card with a two-page letter inside that just told him how much he meant to me and how happy I was that we were together.
Hope this helps!
I swear, sometimes I'm convinced I've found my boyfriend's reddit account when I read your posts even though I know he just recently signed up. haha
Well, he must be an amazing guy. ;) ha ha jk
You, you are awesome. I think I like you more every time I read a post from ya.
It's too bad you live so far. You sound like you're a great person all around and make a great friend to have.
Awww, well thank you. :)
I'd like to
thinkhope I'm a good friend. Where do you live?I live in Texas. I remember at some point you had said where you live but all I remember is that it was far. Everything is far now that i live in Texas. :'(
I'm in AZ, so only two states away!
Damn man you sound like a great guy. I love on the opposite end of the world so I'll probably never meet you in this life time but I'd also love to even be friends with a dude as awesome as you are.
Why do oceans always have to get in the way?! I'm always accepting of new friends, so feel free to PM me or send some other method of communication. :)
