    I'm a bastard for buyinh them little presents at random times. Nothing big so could be a teddy,some make up or a tin whistle depending on my mood.
    Wish I could say ive been saving money since ive been single but it turns out I just buy myself crap instead :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭barleybooley


    Well he buys me perfume which makes him feel good and he brings me treats when he's coming home from somewhere and he's spoiled for choice with buying me presents because I'm not picky.

    Of course I'm joking. I buy him little treats like if I see cool underpants, I'll buy them for him. I make him dinner from time to time and I'd bring him home treats like chocolate that he likes and things like that. I also buy him clothes and stuff but I don't know if he sees that as a treat or not. Then of course there's the X-rated stuff but let's not go there. Personally, I love doing stuff for him, not in a subservient kind of way though but I just like fulfilling traditional gender roles and so does he, it works for us. Plus, I think he's a wonderful boyfriend so I think he deserves treats.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,085 ✭✭✭Xiney


    The way to his heart is definitely through his stomach. And I love cooking. Match made in heaven, ha.

    Also whenever I see any comic book related boxer shorts I buy them for him, he has underwear that cost more than my most expensive pair! (Hmm. Must go lingerie shopping for myself sometime)


    Sweet texts during the day while he's at work are also a way that I show I care. He often texts me the cutest things... when he's sitting on the toilet :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    I get toilet texts too. :D

    When we got together I liked to buy little things, but he'd always give out about me spending my money on him. It goes the other way too, he rarely buys me things "just coz". I was silly enough to let it bother me at the start, but looking at other couples, we defo make up for it in other ways. Sometimes though I do wish that I could buy something for him, and he apprecaites it for what it is, rather than worry about how much it cost me. :(

    Trying to think of treats I do for him and am disgusted to be only able to think of "well I cook....." :eek: Must go, have some serious spoiling to do!

    The toes! Try it. The skin is soft, a light scratch is lovely so I am told. Off course make sure the feet are clean.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭mollybird


    my OH loves to play with my feet but they mad sensitive. he not a man of many words but he loves to do things for me from an IT side. and since i'm a poor student he loves to bring me to really nice places.

    Much like me tbh. :) I made sure my wife could watch Eastenders when we went to Thailand last year. Not terribly romantic sounding.....but it's what I'm good at.....techie crap.

    Also take the kids out for the day if I think she's in need of a break.

    I should buy her flowers more often. She likes them and this thread has prompted me to get my finger out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,772 ✭✭✭✭Whispered


    Yes Khannie, it prompted me to do the same, so I thought a suggestive text message might set me up for a nice evening.

    "Gonna make sure you have a good evening, anything I can do to make it extra special ......;)"


    So I waited for a reply, and waited, and waited, finally my phone beeped.



















    "Yes, roast baby potatoes for dinner please.xx " :rolleyes:

    Me thinks that why she is your x.... Playing your x box at this time. I would have thought more like play with your x's box would be more appropiate :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,312 ✭✭✭rediguana


    I pick summer flowers from the garden and make an arrangement with them sticking out of a champagne flute.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Lockstep


    I buy her pens.

    She collects them so anytime I see an elegant one I put it aside for her.

    Damn right, I'd dump anyone who tried any funny stuff while I'm playing the xbox.


    Eh, mostly buying him stuff, he likes stuff. Or driving him places, he likes places. Or mostly just trying to stay out of his way when he's doing stuff, he likes doing stuff.

    Emmm....




    "must try harder" :(

    Well walking in front of the tv naked tends to get a very fast pause while the monks are singing in the background very fitting.... :pac:

    /Relise's it does sound very sword fishy :D, But its the truth :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 747 ✭✭✭all_smilz


    i like to buy him clothes
    Make him special dinners
    mend tears in his clothes or buttons etc
    He loves a lil dessert i picked up on in the fitness forum- sugar free jelly and cottage cheese with whole raspberries in it....
    we also like to take one another on mystery tours and give one another clues (really obscure ones)
    I go kayaking with him- i am not the most skillful yakker but he loves getting out on the water and often his family (usual paddle partners) are too busy.... it appeals to his saggitarian sense of adventure....
    I do nice things for his mum/family- bring them flowers, baking, cards, small gifts....

    drive 3 hours to see him after a days work.

    put him to bed whens hes had a few 2 many and make sure there is water, painkillers and crisps near his bed for when he wakes up.

    always buy skins and filters when im in a shop so he never runs out. (golden virginia is too expensive!)

    give him 2 lighters on a night out coz he always ends up giving them away.

    make him coffee in the morn before i leave

    leave skype on all night so he can watch me sleep

    I like baking him his favourite cheesecake
    cooking him dinner
    buying him a chocolate bar or something small as a little surprise
    sewing buttons back onto his suit jacket
    ironing or cleaning his apartment (don't mind as he has 3 jobs so doesn't have much time plus he never allows me to pay for anything and always takes me out to nice places).

    Just wee things- you say treats I say prizes. Prizes could be robbing a viscount from work when we've meetings on, buying a chocolate bar in shop or making a really nice dinner. Today it was a photography book.

    Warming up his side of the bed is one he really appreciates!!!!:D

    Rude prizes work very well too...... naked dinners, dirty texts- you get the drift.;);)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,185 ✭✭✭tatabubbly


    That'd be handy but i'm an E cup... needs must!

    Oh and i like to buy ice-cream for him..

    It scares me cause I am trying to picture my o/h walking around as a naked E cup....... Truly lost!


    But by the sounds of it you dont need fancy underware :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,185 ✭✭✭tatabubbly


    Yes, rude treats usually go down a storm.

    It ain't that hard to do, he only gets it as a treat..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,796 ✭✭✭MJOR


    Bring him breakfast in bed.
    Tell him nice things
    send him naughty pictures
    Cook for him every weekend
    give him tiddles


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Edgedinblue


    so i decided to ask the bf heres what i got... i give him massages, cook him the best dinners he's ever gotten, i listen to him talk crap, i wash his clothes, i make him smile everyday even if hes in a bad mood, i make him laugh, im extra cute, i give the best bjs ever, i look after him when hes sick and even when hes not, i give him awesome cuddles, and i love him like noone else ever has.. aww what a cutie :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,072 ✭✭✭SeekUp


    And often do all of these spoilings happen, ladies? I mean, bringing things from the shop whenever you go in, okay. But some of these things, I wonder if they're rarer treats!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,810 ✭✭✭Mackman


    I couldnt think of anything so i texted her:

    I always get her treats in the shop if im there,
    Massages,
    I always drive when she wants to drink,
    I cook when she's too tired,
    I always make her laugh
