From a girl. Nice wine, chocoies or nice cookies. Nothing too personal to freak out the boy, as they have a habit of scaring easy on anything that screams 'long term commitment' anytime soon.

Er, I'm not a guy, but I'd get him something simple from the Body Shop... like the Hemp hand lotion. Good stuff and he'll need it with this dry winter air.

Depending on where you're at in the relationship, nothing puts a grin on a guy's face like his girlfriend in Uber-slinky underwear Cool

How about something a bit more intimate than hand lotion (although Korean guys seem to like it). Something like after shave that you would like to smell on him and then tell him to go to another room and put it on a few spots that you can then search for. Keeping it in the ESL field, if you have an attractive friend of the female persuasion, you could make it a competition and award points to the one that located the most hidden spots. I'm sure that would get him interested.

Very Happy

a fancy Christmas card with these handwritten words:

just a little something
for my new guy

thanks for being you
you make my heart fly

just for you on this special holiday
I'd like to up the ante

and tell you a little secret:
I'm not wearing any panties

You could take him to a nice restaurant. Or cook dinner. Maybe give him a framed photo of you or the 2 of you together (well, maybe that's better if you're a few months into a relationship). A nice CD is good- something he likes.

OK, A good korean dvd (think old boy, shilmido). A book. Just something small and simple. Think something you'd give a good friend.

Alcohol and electronics are the way to a man's heart.

Good scotch, DVD's (box sets of course!), nice headphones, USB flash memory stick, booze, MP3 player, booze, cool stuff with many functions etc.
