🎁 12 Things To Send To Your BF
Okay, so you want to hit your guy with a little unexpected digital love (or maybe a physical surprise, we're not judging). Ditch the basic “hey” text. We're talking about sending him things that actually make him smile, laugh, or, let's be real, maybe even tear up a tiny bit. Get ready to level up your thoughtful game.
1. A Killer Playlist
Nothing says “I get you” like a perfectly curated soundtrack. Think beyond just “our songs.” Craft a playlist for his commute, his gym session, or even just “chill vibes for when you miss me.” Include some deep cuts you know he loves, and maybe a few new tracks you think he'd dig. Pro tip: Give it a ridiculously specific title that only he would understand. It shows you pay attention, and honestly, good music is always a win.
2. His Favorite Snack Stash
The fastest way to a man's heart? Through his stomach, obviously. Arrange for a delivery of his go-to chips, candy, or even a fancy coffee he loves. Whether it's a surprise DoorDash drop-off or a package full of imported goodies, this is pure, unadulterated comfort. Choose something he rarely splurges on himself for an extra thoughtful touch. It's simple, effective, and satisfies those munchies.
3. A Custom Meme or GIF
In this digital age, humor is currency. Whip up a personalized meme or GIF that references an inside joke, a funny moment, or even just his quirky habits. Use a photo of him, or even one of you two. Don't overthink it; the more niche and specific, the better. It shows you share a unique sense of humor and definitely brightens his day with a laugh.
4. A Digital Photo Album or Memory Reel
Got a gazillion photos of you two? Compile some of your favorite moments into a short video montage or a shared digital album. Add some background music that brings back good memories. Include some embarrassing but sweet throwbacks for maximum effect. This is pure nostalgia fuel and a beautiful reminder of your shared journey.
5. A “Why I Love You” List
Sometimes, the simplest things mean the most. Send him a list, via text or email, detailing all the reasons you appreciate him. Be specific: “I love how you always make coffee,” or “Your terrible dad jokes always make me laugh.” Keep it genuine and don't be afraid to get a little sappy. It&s a powerful affirmation that makes him feel truly seen and cherished.
6. Gaming Gift Card or DLC
If your man is a gamer, this is a no-brainer. Send him a gift card to his preferred platform (Steam, PlayStation Store, Xbox, Nintendo eShop) or even direct him to some new downloadable content (DLC) for a game he's obsessed with. Do a little sneaky research to make sure he actually wants that specific DLC. You're basically funding his fun, which is peak girlfriend material.
7. A Subscription Box Trial
The gift that keeps on giving, even if it's just for a month! Sign him up for a trial of a subscription box tailored to his interests: gourmet coffee, craft beer, grooming products, or even a book club. Pick something he wouldn't necessarily buy for himself but would secretly love. It's a fun surprise delivered right to his door.
8. A Virtual Date Night Plan
Even if you can't be together physically, you can still plan a killer date. Send him a detailed itinerary: “Tonight, we're watching this movie on Netflix Party, ordering pizza from our favorite spot (your treat!), and then playing some online Pictionary.” Include all the links and details he needs to just show up and enjoy. It shows effort and keeps the romance alive.
9. A Cozy Comfort Item
Who doesn't love feeling snug? Send him a super soft pair of socks, a comfy beanie, or a new graphic tee from his favorite band or show. It's a practical gift that he'll actually use and think of you every time he does. Choose something in his favorite color or with a subtle nod to an inside joke. Comfort is key, and you're providing it.
10. A Personalized E-Card
Go old school with a digital twist. Find a really funny or sweet e-card and customize it with your own message. There are tons of sites that let you add photos, videos, and even animated elements. Forget the generic ones; make sure it feels uniquely “you two.” It's a charming, unexpected way to send some love.
11. A Workout Playlist or Routine
If your man is a fitness buff, help him crush his goals. Curate an energizing workout playlist with all his favorite pump-up jams. Or, if you're feeling extra, find a new workout routine or challenge online you think he'd enjoy. Make sure the music tempo matches his preferred workout style. You're basically his personal hype-woman, which is a powerful role.
12. A Funny Voice Note or Video Message
Sometimes, hearing your voice or seeing your face is all it takes. Send him a quick, unscripted voice note telling him a funny story, singing a silly song, or just saying “I miss you.” A short video message where you're being goofy or just sending a kiss works wonders too. Keep it brief, authentic, and don't worry about being perfect. It's personal, immediate, and totally him.
Conclusion
See? Showing your guy some love doesn't have to be a grand gesture every time. It's all about those thoughtful, personalized touches that say “I'm thinking of you.” Whether it's a laugh, a comfort, or a little slice of his favorite thing, you've got this. Go forth and send excellent things!
