I'm trying to ask around it but he's not getting it. I want that "WOW" factor.

FYI~ I gave him clothes for christmas(no wow there, just ty) and I got him a new IPOD for his bday/our anniversary (i got "aw sweet thanks babe").

last valentine's day i got him a watch (again no wow, just ty).

if it helps he is a 34 year old professional male. 6'4" tall..if that means anything.

Honestly, I barely remember the day myself. But he goes all out for it, so I want to get him something special. I'm already cooking dinner.

all suggestions welcomed..and thank you.

I can't speak for all Libra men but if I like my woman to be "the present" . Wrap yourself up in a sexy outfit and tease the living birthday out of him. Otherwise find out his hobbies and buy something in that department . Just my 2 cents but hey you wanted our opinions

get him some beauty products, lol. Anyways libragemmale is on point. I once left my ex a note on the counter saying- ' sorry babes i have an emergency to attend to, your present is in the bedroom. PS..HAPPY BIRTHDAY. A'. The present was me on my birthday suit with a red ribbon tied around my neck. We celebrated all night long. OMG, we were very naughty together. Too bad he turned out to be an anaconda. Get your mercury working girl, they arent hard to please.

yup i wanted opinions. I wanted to see if i would get anything from you guys that i didnt think of. yea he had me as the present before that was a wow factor. its been a while, probably time to do it again.

You might want an "ooh" instead of a "wow".. Beauty products are right up the alley.. Like get him something he likes or has liked for a while instead of something that you think would illicit a reaction you are seeking.

Yah he's right you know...a professional in the field..if he doesn't have one already that he loves..could appreciate that.

I know even though i'm a woman, if my husband got that for me, i'd be touched.

A good quality one is pretty expensive though...just sayin.

If you got munny to spare, get one from something like Bottega or some other brand he likes, you'd surely get the "WOW!" you're looking for, which is admiration of your exquisite taste

Right..
My Lib friend has been wanting this bottega manbag for a loong time.. no one has gotten it for him yet tho' haha ๐Ÿ˜›
style is a mishmash of fashion concepts thrown together to fit body types, hair style s etc.. it has to be discovered.

A quick google image search leads me to believe Botegga omitted the 'man' part in the majority of their designs. ๐Ÿ™‚

haha.. manbag's a funny term; was just extending the joke a little bit ๐Ÿ˜›

Those Bottega bags follow the more modern terminology methinks.๐Ÿ™‚

haha i'm not much into men's fashion, those bottega bags look like faux twine tbh

come on...do it..i'd get it for you!! you know if you wanted things like that....

Anyway..guess the person won't post...i'd was thinking if you could try to get something taht would appeal to one of their placements..like their moon..or their mars..or their eros. We could go generic libra male gifts all day, but to try to orchestratrate something on the basis of their chart...that'd be interesting to think about.

I may be different here but buying gifts doesn't usually give a 'wow' factor for me. I have never been much of a gift giver though. I do it in relationships and for my kids but that is it. I have told friends and family not to buy gifts for me since I was a teen, I don't need/want them. One girl I dated in HS asked what I had wanted for x-mas and she wouldn't accept "nothing" as my answer, so I said some thing like "Fine, I'd love a new pair of socks, a can of soda, and a banana"...

The best way to 'wow' someone imho is to share an experience with them. A friend of mine just had her birthday last week. I got her a book that I know she wanted, but the wow present is not material. She is in medical school and has talked about going into veterinary care. She also confessed a while back a deep desire to touch a lion. She basically wants to motorboat its mane. Obviously you can't just go to the zoo and jump in the lion pit and play with his mane... not if you want to walk out of the zoo anyway. So I found an animal park that will let us feed their lions and tigers. We are going Saturday (she has no idea) and getting a behind the scenes tour. They have a few rare baby bears that they are going to let her bottle feed.

I do agree too, the 'gift of yourself' is great. Watercup's present story is hot.

Outside of Watercup's bad humour, a man-bag isn't a bad idea actually.
Here's a few ideas, nice leather ones always look pretty snazzy imo, unless he's sensitive to that sort of thing hah.

those are nice. I love the hangover...."Its not a man purse it a satchel"

he could use a new one, the one he carries is getting worn. he had it since he graduated. ty

i have the feet problem in winter, socks refuse to come out. Its shameful when u wake up with feet covered in lint, like sum furry animal. Oh well, at least i dont get coin slots on my feet, like a jukebox or payphone.
