Gift giving is meant to be an act of love and care but it has come under some scrutiny of late. If you watched “The Big Bang Theory”, you would probably side with Sheldon’s theory of gift giving. Sheldon had this non gift giving policy because giving the right gift troubled him so much.

One thing almost all men will agree with here is that our ladies usually do not gift us men what we would like. They almost all the time buy us boxer shorts and singlets. I don’t if that is what happens everywhere but from my part of the world that is what happens.

Gift giving

Before I continue let me just remind @abenad she owes me a car and @nhaji01 owes me a jet. Your boy has got needs babies hehe. In my opinion, it is not difficult to please or get a get a guy a good gift. Most of us men love watches and shoes. I have always maintained that if you want to give a good gift, forget about food. I very much prefer to gift and to be gifted stuff that will be with me for long. Gift someone food say on their birthday, they forget the gift once the food is finished.

However, if you gift a shirt or something other than food, it stays with the recipient for quite some time. Us guys just want to be loved and appreciated. After all, it’s the thought that counts but it is written nowhere that time after time, you should gift men boxers. Like was there a meeting where all women agreed on boxers?

Someone reminded me that guy’s clothes are expensive and though that is true, there can be substitutes to boxers. Hand bracelets, caps, sun glasses, some watches, perfumes and a whole variety of other things can be gifted. If you want to go very big for that guy friend or boyfriend, brother or father you love, pS5 is a good gift. But only if he is a gamer.

Simple gifts to give men

Sometimes it can be difficult to gift a guy because even we don’t really know what we want but if you really listen, you can find out things even we do not know we like. You can ask the recipient what he would like but for me, I would not tell you what to gift me because I would very much appreciate a surprise. Because of that I don’t really ask people what they want as gifts. If I see something I think you would like, I just get it for you.

That said, try to surprise guys and don’t be one way. Do not let your guy think every year they are getting boxers and at the end of the day, they get exactly that. You can buy boxers for guys on different days but not on special gift giving occasions. Be unique, be different and stay away from boxers ladies. Don’t let us guys start gifting you underwear every year as well.


Thank you.

The funny thing ladies don't know about surprises is that it isn't in the worth, but rather how it makes a person feel

I’m actually very good at surprising people 🫢

That's good to know

That's the thing bro, focus on making guys feel good with good surprises

me taking notes: No boxers, no singlet 😂.

It is really hilarious how guys get to talk about this each time but every year, singlet and boxers would still be gifted to them😂😂

nonetheless, I agree with you when you say that its the effort that matters the most.

🤣 please take note dear. Boxer shorts are not the way.

It is really hilarious how guys get to talk about this each time but every year, singlet and boxers would still be gifted to them😂😂

😂😂 that's really the funny thing. Ladies know guys don't like these, but that is the gift that keeps on giving.

Don't worrry, the ladies would hold another meeting again this year. I'd be sure to put in a word for you😂

😂 thank you very much. But don’t let them come after me 😂

They won't 😂

Great post.
Indeed boxers and singlet are not the only gift, to be gifted to men

Indeed bro, I couldn't agree more

😂😂😂😂😂
Just a car?
Is this playing
You want to look down on my riches?
Just give me a list because car isn’t enough sir

Anyway I’m glad you agree that men’s stuff are expensive.(boxer shorts all the way)🤣

🤣 sorry for looking down on your riches oo. Buy me an island then.

🤣 boxer shorts are never the way

It’s too late you already looked down on me🤣

😂😂 is there nothing like second chance in your dictionary?

No please 😂

Don't be wicked 😂

I’ll think about it😂

😂 that works for me

Please you’re not my boy so nothing for you, sorry.😂😂😂

If I ask you what you want you don’t mind me that’s your problem. It’s sorrow that will finish you.

😂 I didn't even ask for anything.

Go and sleep

I think it doesn't take much to please a man unlike a woman. Women who continuously buy boxers or underwear for their men perhaps have not studied their men well to know their preference.

Indeed, that is true. If women listen to their men, they would know what they want

Exactly 👍🏼
