Ok so i really want to do something nice for my boyfriend. He is wonderful and i appreciate him so i really want to show it by doing something more special than just making him a nice dinner and baking him treats. He does alot for our family and is sole provider now so that i could stop working to take care of our sons one of whom came down with a terrible (but treatable) infection and whom also has orthopedic issues (also correctable.) he also works hard to fix things around the house and change the oil in my car. Today he even went out in a terrible storm to get two tires put on my car as the metal was showing. He doesnt complain much and he runs small errends for me on his way home from work. We are a bit low income so i cant afford anything entirely grande. He enjoys video games and going out to eat, movies, pool, etc. He also likes the outdoors such as hiking. Could anyone help me with ideas as to what i can do to show my appreciation? thankyou so much and sorry it was a bit long.

Miamine agony auntI swear by body massage. Get a nice body oil, or if you can't afford that almond oil will do. ( you find it in the chemist) Then massage him from his back, shoulders, knees, from front to back. Rub the oil in, and then take time to massage out all the tension that he is feeling inside. Brings greater connection between couples, makes him feel loved and adored, is great for the health, helps him to relax and when he gets up for work the next day, he'll feel strong and able to cope with anything. Massage takes very little money, but lots of time. If you do it right he'll either relax and go to sleep, or do it even righter and he'll get sexy with you. Men always seem to like that, either way, it's win-win. Guaranteed smiles or your money back.

Warm oil up in your hands first so it's not cold. Have some warm towels nearby to cover him up. Nice music and privacy helps to set the scene. Wait for 2hours if you are cooking him a nice meal as well.

My girlfriend treats me to a date night every now and again that is only about me, as a show of appreciation. It usually consists of cooking my favourite meal, turning off our phones, a few beers in the fridge, watching a movie I like while cuddling, before we get hot and heavy with a lapdance or massage and then to the bedroom. To me that's heaven, she gets dressed up and puts as much effort into her appearance as she would for a night out, wears a dress or miniskirt etc with lingerie underneath.

Why not have your kids stay at a family members house some time and have a whole night and morning of just the two of you? While I can only speak for myself, good food, beer and a sexual treat usually goes down well, excuse the pun hehe. I usually wake up the next day to breakfast in bed and a hell of a lot of cuddling and sweet talk.

OP your guy may be a different kind of guy, I value relaxation time. I like nothing better than to kick back and do nothing so having a night and day where I don't have to do anything and my girlfriend takes care of all my needs and pleasure is great.

Maybe he feels best doing things, maybe he likes to fish, maybe he likes working on cars or just going to see a sports event with his buddies. You could buy him tickets to an important sporting event, maybe organize a cheap fishing weekend, or a day trip somewhere just to two of you, or you could organize a poker night in your house for him and his friends, or just even have a party or barbecue in your house.

I think it's best you think of the things he likes to do, what gives him awesome fun and organize something pretty cheap, no kids just two of you or a group of friends.
