When can surprises go wrong?
If the surprise is too dramatic or costly, it can have the unintended effect on your recipient, for example, spending a lot on a surprise trip could backfire if you find out they had to work during that certain period. For this reason, it's often the smallest surprises that surprise your boyfriend, partner or recipient the most and make them the happiest, as it is often the thought that counts.
Avoid putting any demands on your recipient with your surprise
If your surprise requires a certain reaction or actions from your recipient, this might put pressure on them and in return, result in a negative response from your recipient. Examples to try to steer clear of might be, planning an event with many guests at a time your recipient is tired and needing to relax, or indirectly sending a message with your surprise that requires a particular effort on your recipient's part, such as arranging a romantic meal or dressing up, for the expectation of activities afterwards. Aim for surprises to make your recipient smile, as they come straight from the heart!
Keep their tastes in mind
When planning a surprise, be sure there is nothing that might be costly or inconvenient for your recipient involved, such as a difficult cleaning job, or anything that might make them feel uncomfortable. Also, if planning a food related surprise, be sure to check for any food allergies they might have beforehand!
My boyfriend is working on his birthday - what do I do?
Ideas for how to surprise your boyfriend at work include dressing up in a disguise or costume and surprising him at work, making a lovely surprise for him to come home to, or setting it up at the pub he visits on the way home. You could also make him a little birthday care lunch package and take it in to him at work! It can be themed, filled with specially cut sandwiches or cookies - all you need is a themed cookie cutter off Etsy or Ebay! It's inexpensive and such a cute and special idea.
You could even make him a mini pick and mix bundle, with little amounts of all the pick and mix sweets you can think of and find! As you only need small amounts, they should be super affordable to find and it makes such a special, playful and nostalgic surprise gift, the gift of reminiscing his childhood!
