Hi there!
My boyfriend ‘M26’ and I ‘F25’ have been together for 3 years. I’d like to know; what’s the best surprise your partner has ever done for you and/or what’s the best surprise you’ve ever done for your partner?
From big things to the smallest of gestures, I would love to hear it all!
We love gaming (he has a particular fondness for DOTA 2 and Deltarune) and mushy romance. In fact, we are so mushy we are called “diabetically sweet” by friends, so nothing is too cheesy. Gift recommendations are also more than welcome!
I love to knit and sew so ideas for what to craft for him would be great too! (except for socks, I can’t make socks for the life of me!)
Some examples of things I’ve done in the past are writing multiple love songs, as well as making a custom book of poems I’ve written and paintings I’ve made to go with the poems. I have also knitted a hat and scarf set and a Binding of Isaac doll. I’ve even thrown him surprise birthday parties with all our friends!
TLDR:
What surprises/gifts from partners meant the most to you? Any gifts or gestures (aside from the normal emotional support, cuddles, and general consideration) you can recommend?

My boyfriend (50) myself (54) he painted me a beautiful photo of dandelion💙❤️❤️💙 its soo special to me.
I did a scavenger hunt for my husband while on lock-down during covid. Haha, it took me all day, but I made clues that rhyme with pictures and hid them around the house. I home-made “Love coupons” ie free back massage, free bj, etc.
I made a huge, corny, happy birthday sign and put it on the garage. I blew up ballons and left them all over the house. It was so silly, but it made a man in his 40s cry happy tears.
