    So, I'm not a guy either but you had to know with a title like that nosy girls like me would want to get our opinions in
    • I believe a birthday is a persons "special" day so I would ask him what he wants to do - his choice for all activities that whole day, 24 hour of his choice about everything you do or don't do.
    • Included obviously all his favourite foods, snacks, drinks, and do bake the cake (his favourite of course)...sweet gesture!

    I don't think it's so much the gesture as the thought. My wife can make my day just by putting hers hands on either side of my face and kissing me as we pass in the kitchen or hallway.

    What does he like to do? Is there anything he used to love to do like a hobby or something that he hasn't done in a long time because life gets in the way? we tend to have a routine day in day out because of work. And breaking that routine especially with something he loves to do would be a great gesture.
    Would be my perfect day, go fishing, long drives to no where pretty much anything that breaks my work week routine.

    Get him something related to any of his hobbies or interests, something that shows you pay attention to what he likes.

    Do something different that he doesn't expect. Don't do the same old boring stuff.

    Or... Just give him a steak.

    Sorry, nosy female here LOL!!

    Since you said he likes to play video games, try playing with him! I'm sure he'll get a good laugh and appreciate that you are trying to do something with him that he likes.

    Hit the nail there!

    When he comes home, greet him at the door wearing only clear saran wrap stretched around your body.

    That should do it.

    Makes a cute outfit. :) Not sure why he didn't like it. :/

    I am not a guy but if it were my guy I would do this along with getting daughter a playdate. That way you two can play games uninterrupted and hey if it leads to other games well so much the better.

    For me it's the quality of the time we spend together that counts. My daughter is grown and gone, so that's easy. Find a way to spend a day or two without yours. Then find a way to really communicate. For us it usually involves a secluded walk...a winter beach, a park off the beaten track, a hike in a state park...a weekend at the shore is always conducive, something about the ocean.

    A long walk, a really good meal out somewhere, some alone time...

    You'll figure it out...
