What should I get my boyfriend for his 20th birthday?

Alright, so we have been dating for over a year. His last birthday, I filled his apartment with balloons for a balloon scavenger hunt, and just got him a t-shirt for my college. (We had been dating for almost 4 months.) For Christmas, we had been dating 6 months and I got him tickets to Blue Man Group. Boy did he love that! We went to Universal Studios for the day (since we have passes) then went to dinner, and then to the show. For Valentine’s Day I got him an Onyx/Sterling Silver ring. For our 1 year anniversary I made him a book of our love story and he loved it. (We agreed to make presents for our anniversary instead of buying junk.)

Anyway, his birthday is coming up towards the end of September and I am at a loss! I don’t want to buy him just any old thing, ya know? He is going to be 20. He likes dragons, swords and weapons, music (we were in band together in High School, he is studying Recording Arts in college), Magic (the card game), video games of all sorts… he’s just a typical guy. I need to leave in a few minutes, but any ideas would be great! Thanks. I was thinking about getting the ring engraved, because I was going to do that on Valentine’s Day but thought it was a little much. I always said I’d get it done at a later point in time. Other ideas?

How to get closer to the guy I'm going to prom with? Does it sound like he likes me? A few other questions…?

I met a really great guy about two weeks ago at a small party, and we friended each other on facebook. We had this fascinating, intelligent conversation about music and pop culture and then a few days later, I got his number and started texting him. Within a few minutes, I asked him to prom, and he said yes.

But like I said, we only just met two weeks ago. I see him every day at school briefly in passing, but we don’t really get a chance to hang out much. At the most, we exchange a hi and sometimes he gives me a hug. I’ve invited him to my 18th bash this friday, but I don’t know how else we can really hang out to get to know each other better. How do I tell him this?

Also, is it unusual that I’ll be 18 and he has just turned 16 in January? I know last year he dated a girl in my year, but my parents acted strangely when I told them he was two years younger than me. Is this a big deal, or should I not worry about it?

When I asked him, he was surprised and he said, "you sure move fast, don’t you?" I only asked him so shortly after we met because prom is only a month away. And then a bit later he said he was glad I had spared him the awkwardness of a certain other girl asking him. I texted back saying that I was glad I had spared him the awkwardness, and quickly he texted back saying "without tone, I cannot assess whether that was sarcasm for the disregard for your emotions in my comment." Does it sound as though he might like me as well?

I really like him, even though we’ve just met – he’s funny, intelligent, I’ve been told by my other friends that he’s hot, and he has an adorable personality and gives the best hugs. But it seems like some of my friends try to warn me away from him. The friend that introduced us says he’s very depressed and she doesn’t think I can handle it, and another friend says he’s a douche. Should I listen to what they say, or go based on what I feel and what I’ve seen of his personality?

getting your ex back?

My ex and I broke up 2 months ago. Since then we talked for a bit, then she told me she wanted to stop communicating till she was ready. Almost two weeks ago she sent me and email, and we have been communicating, and seeing each other almost everyday, if only for a few minutes. She told me that she loves me, that she deeply cares about me, and she wishes we could start like we did at the beginning all over again. She also said that she isn’t sure what she wants, and last night she said she isn’t sure we could do that. She goes back and forth everyday on what she feels. She’s said several times that sometimes she feels like running away with me and getting married, and other times, she wants to just get away completely from me. I’ve told her how I felt, and that I’d like to start over again, and that I love her very much. when we first broke up, I was trying to get back with her, and she said that I was pressuring her, and it was pushing badly.

Now, I see my chance, but I’m worried about saying the wrong thing to her and pressuring her more to the point she will be gone. She is hanging out with a guy quite a bit, but she says he’s just a friend and that she was/is only interested in me.

What should I do?

We ended it but I still love him :( Please help me!?

At the beginning of the year I met this really sweet, hot guy in my algebra class and he would help me with my math. We would stare at each other all class and flirt alot and he would tickel me. Then I found out he was a Satanist and I’m a Christian so I told him we could only be friends. Then I couldnt stop myself and I told him I still really liked him. Then he told me he loved me (texted this tons of times in a row) then he started saying how he missed me and wanted to kiss me, etc…. then he told me that if we were alone together that he wanted to have sex with me. We never even started dating but I called him a prick and never spoke with him. Well at least till this month a few weeks ago. He still stared at me alot and showed all signs of liking me and I couldnt take it anymore so I e-mailed him saying that I miss him and to email me back. He did saying he hates me and never liked me and that he only opens up to certain people and that id never be one of them. Then I cried so much and emailed him back swearing at him and saying I never wanted to talk to him. He sent one back saying the same thing and to never talk to him again. So the other day I walked past him with my guy cousin to make him jelous because I was hurting so much and a few minutes later someone saw him crying. His friend is friends with me and he told me that the guy was really upset because he saw me walking by with my cousin and he thought it was my bf. Now I feel horrible. The other day I passed by him and his friends and he said "Hey Anna!" The way he used to when we were flirting and stuff (so really friendly) I said Hi back and looked sad. But if he talked to me is this a sign he misses me? the other day he walked up to me and started talking alot but I was on my phone and when I got off he was gone…… Then today he walked up to me and started talking fast and I said What? then he said oh I was just messing around. Im confused Do you think he still loves me?
