i need gift advice--especially from men!!

ok is this too corny for a guy to receive this.i have been battling back and forth over this gift idea..

i already got my bf mets tickets for our anniversary..now these tixs r for the friday b4 our anniversary..

then on the day of our actual anniversary which is a tuesday we r driving too montauk to walk in the village and go to the beach..

now would it b soo dumb and corny to get him one of those huge picnic 'baskets that come with all the fixings and some wine' so we can have it on the beach and have a romantic kind of lunch.. i

was also thinking of getting him that guitar book INSIDE the basket as a surprise.. is this too corny, and guys will think it is dumb??

I know my hubby would love it, I think it sounds so sweet and romantic!!!
Is he the sweet and romantic type??

does he play the guitar?

as for the picnic idea -- great idea -- a way to a man's heart is through his stomach

I think you have all the areas covered than!

he is trying to learn to play the guitar..so i figured mets tickets for thegame friday nite, then tuesday when we go to montaulk i figure the whole romace thing will work and he is trying to learn the guitar so the book would kinda b an xtra surprise...

i m honestly trying to hit all the areas cause as u can tell from some of my last posts our relationship needs a little 'restored-loving' lol..

needless to say i better get more then a card on this anniversary after thinking of all this LOL!

now on to the alcohol what kinda wine should i get..i kno NOTHING about wine at all so nothing expensive but still um tastes expensive lol..recommendations please

my only piece of advice for you is this --

i read your other post about the issues around you guys getting engaged and the sensitivity there. That being said, I wouldn't overdo it with this. The whole idea is nice, but if the engagement issue is too fresh and some awkwardness is still present, then your plan may come off as a way to guilt him into engagement.

In other words, make it clear that you don't expect anything in return for your kind gesture.

i think it sounds like a wonderful idea!
i may have to steal it from you!!!!!
