Make Him a ‘Welcome Basket’

Boyfriend Gift

My boyfriend moved 1300 miles, transferred jobs and forfeited all his furniture to move in with me. I knew it was a big sacrifice and I wanted to be sure that he felt it all worth it upon arriving. To make him feel welcome I crafted a large basket full of items to aid comfort in a new city; a street map, bus schedule, restaurant guide and local food items. I also added some creature comforts from home too; a printed satellite image of his old street, a box of stationary to write home with and pictures of his friends and family. To remind him what it was all for I made sure to add a few sexy gestures as well…that I’ll leave between me, my man and the basket.

WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In My umble Opinion, YOU are AWSOME....and He is luckier than he could hope for. You have taken the moments to show that you think about the things that still will affect him and seek to lessen the impact as much as you can in a positive way. Great Job !!!I hope he realizes how much you care and how sensitive you are to his feelings and sense of the things he left behind. I also hope he is as thoughtful or your felings and needs. WOW...
Check, Please!

As much as we hope for that great first date, the majority of them are, for lack of a better term, one big, awkward mess. But hey, they make for great stories, right? From hilarious to horrifying, tell us about the worst first date you’ve ever had. Share the pain. >>
