This way he can do a date night while not having to front the bill. It's simple and shows a nice gesture on your part. @Cyndi Another good idea would be to get him a restaraunt or food gift card.

However, the purchase of the gift is none of my business. I would personally recommend tickets to a sporting event of some sort. This of course depends on where you live and how expensive the tickets are. I'm sure you can find tickets to an NHL or NFL game at a reasonable price. Just make sure you get two tickets so he can drag your daughter along. @Cyndi A great point was brought up by Sandy. However, the purchase of the gift is none of my business.

Honestly, unless he's going to be at your house on Christmas when mass exchange of gifts is taking place, a gift for him doesn't really seem necessary to me. I'm a college student who has been going out with my boyfriend for over a year. My mom has met him on numerous occasions, and on top of that, she gets along really well with him. She's not planning on getting anything for my boyfriend, and I don't see a problem with that at all. Cyndi – it’s very nice of you to want to get your daughter’s boyfriend a gift.

What do you recommend for a 21-yr-old, male college student? He's been dating my daughter for about 3 months, and I just don't know him well enough to know what to get him. I know you recommended the liquor store gift card, and I know he drinks, but again he's dating my daughter so that's not really the route I want to take! Thanks. Ok, I have a question.
