I'm stumped :(

Usually I get her box set of dvd's

ie, Friends 1-10, Columbo 1-7 etc etc

Need to get something better than dvd's this year, but because i'm a boy, can't think of anything
 
I need the same question answered really, its my fiancees 21st in October... i feel i should start planning now

you could get her a day/weekend at a spa bledd? (thats what i was going to do until her mum decided to get that for her >_< damnit)
 
did the meal in a restaurant last year & before that (and went to watch die hard 4 in cinema.. -she loves die hard)

we've arranged a meal in the chinese with a few of her & my friends going (and her mum etc) for sat..

her brothers bought her a digicam for christmas (good suggestion though)

she's wouldn't appreciate a spa etc as much as say my mum would
 
ok - how about some jewellry? Its a must for a 21st to buy something that will keep and be of sentimental value someday. Wouldn't have to cost a fortune though. I bought camera + necklace + something else but cant remember what!
 
a new graphics card and processor

i'd actually go with a nice engraved piece of jewellery tbh

edit: damn, beaten to it
 
Get her a boyfriend who knows what she wants?

Lol, kidding.

I don't know - why not try cooking dinner, jewellry, day/weekend out or abroad, hotel maybe? Concert she wants to see? Theatre?

Edit: Hideous spelling of boyfriend. Had to be corrected.

necklace or watch, nice one, can get it etched if she likes it then

trouble is, thursday pm is the only chance i'll have to go shopping :S
 
she said all she wants is a tea set :p:rolleyes::o:(

Totally buy her a cheapo tea set, give it to her, and make her think that's all you got her.

She'll be really surprised when you eventually reveal that it was just a joke present :P And it works for you, as she'll be even more receptive to whatever you give her/do for her. Plus, it's something amusing to bring up in light conversation.
 
i don't know about yours but mine goes weak at the knees just at the thought of shoes. Go window shopping with her and buy what she liked most :)
 
Depending on how long you both have been going out get a digital picture frame and put all the pictures of you both you can find on there then take her out for a meal or something. Girls like things like that even thou it doesnt mean much to the bloke until the end of the night. :D:D
 
It does amaze me that these men spend time with their other halves, but dont have a clue what their other halves like.....have you never been talking and she's said "Ooooh id love to have blah blah blah"

Why not have a conversation with her where you say "Honey ive got some things planned for your birthday (DO NOT SAY IM A CLUELESS FOOL AND SO FAR IVE GOT YOU NOWT :D ) but I was just wondering as its your 21st and its special, is there anything youve always wanted"

And make sure you listen! :p
