my boyfriend, who is turning 55 this yr, is the most difficult man to get a gift for. he likes to fish, hunt, cook, gamble..people have gotten him geo.forman grills (which stay unopened in boxes) i have tried a gift certificate to the bait/tackle shop (got a mildly pleased? look) i bought him a ring cause he was shopping rings online and he never wore it (it bothered him) i got him shirts like he wears with his name and logo on it (said "you got me WORK shirts??) i got him $100 in scratch tickets once, that was ok (he won back $80) but i am at a real loss this time. i find no way of really pleasing him, while i am pleased with everything and anything he's gotten me.i want to get him something he'll use and enjoy! anyone know a person like this? what to do..

Everything you are talking about giving him so far are things... just things.... why not play into something a little bigger... and get him a night at a casino or something... book him a hotel room for a night or two and let him run free....Something like that... or better yet, have his buddies coordinate with you on taking him on a surprise fishing or hunting trip. Try activities he can enjoy, rather than wear or play with or shop for. He seems to be really active, and probably would love a present that gives him an opportunity to get involved in...

Buy him what he really needs... nothing! That's probably the only thing he hasn't gotten before and that will leave a lasting impression, but seriously...I think the best thing you could do is to sit down over the course of a few days and write him a long letter. Tell him how much he means to you. Talk about all the fun times you've had. Let him know about the times you've cried over him, just because you love him so much! Believe me, that is one gift that only you can give and it will be used for the rest of his life.
