Hey guys, So I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years now and tomorrow it's going to be our 4 year anniversary. Both of our budgets are really tight this year, especially because we are college students and have part time jobs. I don't even know if he's going to be getting me "something special" this year, and I truly don't mind because he's already paying for a lovely expensive dinner and movies. I have NO clue what to give him. I really don't. I have given this boy basically everything and he doesn't really need much. 3 days ago I got this crazy idea to give him a "self-care" basket. I basically went around Wal-Mart, drusgtores, etc and got him stuff for his own self personal care. I got him shaving gel, shampoo, conditoner, an awesome shaver (electronic) and some other neat stuff like after-shave lotion, a soft cleanser, face moisturizer, and deodorant. Now, my boyfriend is not really metro, let alone anything. I have to constantly be behind his back and tell him to shave, get a haircut, do this and do that. He tells me he will buy this stuff in stores but never does and it's constant battle for years now. I know that if I don't get him the stuff, he won't get it. Now my problem is, I showed my room mate and my friend the basket I'm making for him with all the stuff. I also made him an adorable card and printing out pictures and made a small collage. My friends think my gift is insulting because it means hes dirty and he needs to change. I just want him to take care of himself! I feel like crying, I feel like my gift sucks and I don't have time to get something else, I have school and work tomorrow and rushing to meet him for dinner afterwards. :(

I think it's nice! Your friends need to lighten up. My friends and I bought are friend fake tan, moisturizer, face wipes, nice smelling lotions and potions and stuff for her birthday one year she loved it. Your presents good it's personal, practical, and good. And the small collage sounds so sweet. It's not sucky, i'm sure he'll love it. chin up :)
