what are his interests?
Help! I'm looking for the perfect guy as a present!
:D
He loves pro football. But he already has his Madden 2005 plasystation game and he won't play anything else but that. I've also gotten him tickets to 2 Pittsburgh Steelers games because my parents neighbor is Hines Ward (reciever). Other than that, he has no real interests... very simple guy, just likes hanging out w/ me and my family.
If he's as simple as you say, I wouldn't worry about it. Get him something that matches him, even something cheesy. Simple guys don't care what it is they get as a present, but rather how well their wife/gf understands them in picking for him something that is meaningful to him. Doesn't have to be spectacular... it could be something as simple as a heartfelt letter of appreciation, gratitude, and love. Free, handwritten, and not too long.
Then again, I'm a sentimental fool. Probably one of the last romantics of my generation.
A keg of Sam Adams. And an Xbox.
An Atari 2600 with original cartriges... always a gas!
does he ever wear jewelry?
Here is a site w/ nice stuff...

Iceland.
Something from Victoria's Secret.
Tools are always good. How about a nice, full set of wrenches? (Got one for my 1st anniversary, and am still pleased as all get out with it.)
And for levity, a pair of glow-in-the-dark boxer shorts.
Camping equipment
Fishing equipment
Glamour photoshot photo of you in antique style frame!!
Porch swing for star gazing
If he drinks, what about a good bottle of expensive scotch.
Don't get him clothing of any kind. Especially, a tie.
Well, I'm a perfect guy and I don't go in for flashy or expensive, so...
This may take some work, but the best way to find what he would like is to see what he gets OTHER people. At some point he will say, "Joe will love this widget -- it's really cool." Translation: "I love this widget but I don't like to spend money on myself."
Problem solved.
If there really is a perfect guy out there then I would hold on to him, tell him you love him, tell him how wonderful he is. Cherish the fact that you found a perfect guy. He probably doesn't need a fancy gift. I would suggest something memorable from your first date.
There aren't that many perfect people out there!!
Many try to think they are perfect, but are far from it when you find out who they really are.
Binoculars
Expensive folding knife like a Swiss Army knife or something similar
Magazine subscription corresponding with a personal interest.
Tools but you have to get your brother/father/son to go with you. I'm sorry ladies but it almost never works out when you buy tools without male help
More info, please.
What are the 5-7 top priorities, passions etc. in his life in rank order?
What are the 3-5 most common things he does with 'free' time?
What colors does he prefer?
What kind of music?
What kind of books?
How does he typically show he cares for others?
If you give me more info, I suspect I can come up with a list of possibilities. People usually say I'm good at picking gifts--thoughtful, creative etc.
