Im kinda used to her being "mean" now..    Well at least if she wasnt being truthful to me, i wouldnt have to let my brother to taste my cake.. I pity my lab rats..
I did try the second time.. It got softer only by a little bit..  Then i stopped trying coz it looks like a complete waste of money.. 
Ur mom is a fast learner.. 

i give him a pink tedy bear
really dont know what to give then i decide to give my pink bear

last christmas i got a pair of Charles Jourdan watch. one for me, 1 for my bf as gift. very sweet. he likes it very much too..
Tissot watches r nice too.. there r abt rm500 a piece. can nego abit.

i got him Lacoste n Polo T before... o ya n last year bday i invited all his friends to Karaoke to celebrate wit him n i paid for it..

i plan on getting a Mont Blanc pen for him this year if i can afford hahahaha...
or mayb a LV wallet.. cos i bought him a Renoma wallet like 4 yrs ago hahaha n he's still using it now..its sooo time to change thou he really takes good care of his stuff..

he got me Star Tortoise as gift b4.. i love it very much..
but after few months we arguing who should clean it hahaha..

n instead of buying cards
i jus use paper to scribble n wish him.. he still keeps it in his wallet..
i mean really crappy paper like those plain white paper wit no deco at all 

as for my gifts normally i prefer to choose wat i wan.. so i tell himw at i wan if its within his budget he'll get for me.. if not i'll top up myself.. 
no surprises frm him.. but i guess i cant really complaint cos i prefer to get something i really like than him surprising me wit something i might not like.. 

how will a guy feel when he receive a handmade card from his gf?

I'm still single and so i have no idea. I would keep it i guess.
But this is what my friend does,
Gf handmade a card for him, he happyly takes it home and leave it beside the pc table so that he could see it everyday.
Few months later, yes it's still there. (collecting dust)
TBH, many guys don't appreciate [time+effort] gifts.. =\

Nah thats not silly, very sweet instead =)
Keep up the good work, hope you could get 22 really meaningful gifts for him 

Basically, guys will love watever his partner gives. Eventough he gives lame responces or xpression, but believe me, they like it. How i wish my gf will be reading this thread and giv me weird n creative surprises like in this thread.  Haha. No offense of the word "weird" being use here.  .

If me, i would like a grand piano. Lolz. But it's totally impossible. So any present will actually do. And of course better if hand made stuffs.
Sorry for tumpanging people thread again, valentine day coming. Another hard time for me. Any1 knoes any candlelight dinner in malacca ?
