1.84 MB GIF
my dad is dragging me to the birthday of his friend's son, cause he's my age and he wants us to meet or whatever.

i have only met the guy one time previously, when we were like four, and my only memory of him is that he pushed me off a slide on the playground.

i don't know his interests or hobbies or anything. what the hell do i even get him? do men even like things?
>>
they like sex
>>
>>84881156
this, your only hope is to strongly come onto him
>>
>>84881065
becoming femboys and consuming slop
>>
>>84881065
how about you find that out for yourself? no harm in asking, exchanging ideas about what you like or not to do
you can then find something to do or somewhere to go from that talk
be curious, you doofus

let me rephrase: what would be a good, appropriate thing i can give some random 20 year old guy i barely know for his birthday.
>>84881176
i don't even have his number. how would i ask him?
>>
Your father is trying to find you a bf basically. Have you ever had one? I guess not.
>what would be a good, appropriate thing i can give some random 20 year old guy i barely know for his birthday.
A card with your signature I guess. "You're Pawsome!" And there's a little cat at the bottom idk
>>
>>84881195
Either dont get him anything or just get him some bullshit like a birthday card or a Keychain or something that people generally like

yeah, i know. which means its just gonna be a total humiliation ritual for everyone involved
>>84881229
keychain sounds reasonable. of what though? like a random car or something? men like cars
>>
>>84881195
>what would be a good, appropriate thing i can give some random 20 year old guy i barely know for his birthday.
maybe a birthday card with a coupon for one free blowjob? no guy will be not like that
>>
>>84881270
A car, a bike, a sports shoes idk what men like honestly. Or just something funny like a fish or sum
>>
I hear they're super into transformers around that age
>>
>>84881195
ah, you mean as a gift, that makes a lot more sense now
the way you phrased it i thought you two were going to spend some time together or something, like a date

hmm...
keychain is a safe bet, grab something you find interesting or funny, since you don't know him that well
you could ask your dad though, he's the one dragging you there isn't he? he should know the guy
>>
>>84881290
i'm not getting him a hooker coupon

>A car, a bike, a sports shoes
you think i have an elon musk budget??
>>84881306
...are we SURE?
>>84881335
>you could ask your dad though
i already did, but he just told me he likes what everyone likes, which is not very helpful. i don't think he knows him that well beyond "friend's son"
>>
>>84881386
>you think i have an elon musk budget??
I meant a KEYCHAIN OF THOSE. Still dont spend too much money on someone you dont know. 5dollars max
>>
>>84881065
that's not what you do with a pie stupid
also ai remember you form some other thread in the past
I think we had a nice conversation
>dragging
my tactic with that crap is I just leave after a while, I say hello to everyone, get something to drink and leave, just go outside and go on a walk
>do men even like things?
what's your budget?
>>
>>84881270
>keychain sounds reasonable. of what though?
Keychain of a slide on a playground.
>>
>>84881386
in all seriousness, cash in a card. don't bother with a gift card even, you'll risk getting him something he can't even give away for free.
>t. still have a chipotle gift card from two Christmases ago I've literally offered to people for free and can't give away
>>
>>84881065
They're hypergamous and like goyball. That's literally it.

Our normie families think that we should be just like them to be successful in life or something, I'm so tired of modern normies and my parents dude

>>84881404
>also ai remember you form some other thread in the past

wait, really? what thread?
>what's your budget?
ideally under 15 bucks but i'd go up to 20 since everything's expensive now
>>84881406
>Keychain of a slide on a playground.
WAIT that'd be actually genius if i could find that
>>84881428
> I'm so tired of modern normies and my parents dude
same here. i'm not sure they really realize that this whole "dating intervention" shit is actually just making it worse
>>
Kind of depends on the time frame involved.
He's a guy, so a super sure bet is some kind of food. Cheese wheel, beef jerky, homemade cookies / pie, whatever.
Next best bet is to get him something you would enjoy. You have a conversation starter at the very least and he may look at it and think of you which could start something who knows.

Much better than to get a blind gift you yourself don't even like / use like "oh here's a sports jersey for the team you apparently like" only to be met with "thanks femanon (gonna throw it away though because I don't actually like it / idk why dad told him to tell her that)" or "uh, sportsball is for niggers and the dumb poor", which would be a rude but very true response.
>>
>>84881065
Just look around the room, it's not hard.

Sports, vidya, etc. No, you don't have to give him anything.
>>
>>84881065

Sex, vidya, DragonBall Z, sports, cars, war history, and weightlifting.
>>
>>84881442
>WAIT that'd be actually genius if i could find that
There are places where you can get a customized keychain. You could even go to that playground from your childhood and take a picture of the slide to print on the keychain.
>>
>>84881386
>he just told me he likes what everyone likes
Probably something video game related then. If he's a normie maybe some one piece merch.
>>
>>84881442
>wait, really? what thread?
I don't remember!!!
do you remember what sort of threads you've made recently? maybe that'll help me remember
>under 15 bucks but i'd go up to 20 since everything's expensive now
well my answer is usually an opinel knife No.07 or No.08 (the bigger the number the bigger the knife) because they're very good and not expensive
but if you don't know the guy and don't care about him, I... don't know
some sort of small cheap knickknack should be okay, maybe visit a knickknack store and get him a little cat statue or something (at least that's what I'd like to get)
>>
Fembot listen. Multi tool knife. Military kind. Get it off temu or Amazon for like $10.
>>
>>84881386
okay do you even like the moid, id like just 20 bucks, do u really have to get a gift for someone u dont really know
>>
>>84881065
power bank, steam gift card, maybe a mug or something

DEFINITELY don't gift him a postcard with money in it with a note that says "get yourself something nice, little boy" with lipstick kiss marks on the note oh god that would be HORRIBLE
>>
>>84881600
as a 20 year old guy i got one of these and just threw it somewhere

yeah how fuckin' helpful, thanks dad
put his on the line and ask what he would gift the guy then, get to know "what everyone likes"

>i don't think he knows him that well beyond "friend's son"
then honestly i don't fucking know why he's forcing you to go to the guy's birthday party
if he's trying to set you two up then that's a god-awful way of doing that (and you should let him know)

but anyway yeah, just something funny or interesting
as anon mentioned, a mug may also be nice, or maybe one of those cheap stone necklaces (like a malachite or tiger's eye)
best of luck, anon

well money is always a safe bet, unless hes a weird normoid, does he look cute at least
>>
>>84881065
if money isn't a problem, then a playstation 5 controller is a good option, most people have a ps 5 or a gaming PC and both of those work with that controller.

Holy shit you really are a girl aren't you.
Yes of course. Men love knives / swords / guns / weapons in general. You see boys playing with sticks as kids? Knives are just sharp sticks.
>>
>>84881786
>remember me we probably talked before on something !!
we did we did ugh I wish I rememberd
>thing that men like knives?
I don't know but I like knifes and they're always useful
>what do you even use them for?
mostly cutting things like plastic packags that are a bitch to open or a loose thread or once I got a nail impale into my shoe and I pried it out
Also who do you think about my suggestion to leave the party when you get there?
>>
>>84881805
>Knives are cool dude
name a single scenario in your every day life where you would need a knife outside of the kitchen
>>84881815

uhhh idk. my dad says so, but i haven't seen him since i was four, so that's not much to go off of
>>84881827
>if money isn't a problem
it is
>>84881829
possibly. we'll find out
>>84881862
i mean i get swords, like katanas and shit. but only to hang them up on your wall and look cool. anything else makes no sense?? you don't need any of this
>>84881869
>mostly cutting things like plastic packags that are a bitch to open or a loose thread
men don't own scissors????
>Also who do you think about my suggestion to leave the party when you get there?
i think it might be hard to do, because the way i understood it its like a family celebration at a restaurant, so not really something you can just pull an irish exit on. otherwise yeah, i'd probably dip halfway through, but not with my dad and his parents there
>>
>>84881888
>men don't own scissors??
that's right men HATE scissors, they're a lesbian thing lol
But I mean like when you're outside on a walk to a store and you, idk, get some new headphones and wanna try them out before you get home
or you pick up a package and open it to throw the box away and just carry the thing you ordered with you instead of lugging the whole box
But like I said you can always get a little decorative thingie if you that sounds better to you
>not with my dad and his parents there
hm I see
well personally I wouldn't care but I'm me
>>
>>84881786
>i have like a week left, you think they could make it that fast?
Sure.

doggystyle cosplay sex as mei misaki trust me it will work

>>84881925
>that's right men HATE scissors, they're a lesbian thing lol
damn, i didn't know they felt that strongly about scissors, but i guess I'll keep it in mind??
>well personally I wouldn't care but I'm me
yeah, i guess i just don't wanna make it awkward for my dad or anything, since he's really close to the parents. him and boy's dad are highschool friends, so they go way back
>>84881954
what if he hasn't watched another, so he just thinks i'm insane and calls the police on me?
>>
>>84881972
>guess I'll keep it in mind??
yeah never even as much as mention scissors
>don't wanna make it awkwar
you sound nice
So do you have any better of an idea about what you're gonna get him?

op id just get him a giftcard or something. im a man and getting gifts for most other men feels impossible and always goes unappreciated unless its cash in my experience.
>>
>>84881972
if you look like a sexy anime girl he will fuck you regardless of knowing the dumb show just take him to the bathroom lul
>>
>>84881995
do this op.
get him both a giftcard and something small like a cool keychain or a watch if he wears them (casio watches are good and cheap, but youd have to determine if hes into them)
>>
>>84881972
do u want to get to know this moid, i feel like it will just be awkward 1 word small talk
>>
You guys are morons thinking OP is actually a woman typing all this
>>
>>84881990
>yeah never even as much as mention scissors
well if its THAT serious, i better not
>do you have any better of an idea about what you're gonna get him?
yeah, probably the key chain thing. i'll see if i can find one with a slide so its a little more personal or whatever, but if not maybe just a random thing, like a car keychain or whatever
>>84881995
a giftcard of what though? i think like another anon said, before i get him a giftcard for something he'll never use, i might as well just get him a random trinket or something
>>84881996
i don't look like mei misaki
>>84882020
>i feel like it will just be awkward 1 word small talk
it will be, yeah. but it will make my dad happy, and then we go home, and hopefully we all realized it was so awkward and weird that it never happens again
>>
>>84882035
>a giftcard of what though?
amazon, or whatever regional e-shopping crap site is popular where you live. i really wouldnt put much more work or effort into this. but that's just me, im jaded from trying my best over and over with people i knew and it going unappreciated.
>>
>>84881065
>your parents never got your a gf for your birthday
life is so unfair.
(You) are the present OP.
>>
>>84881195
Just give him cash.
>>
>>84882034
I don't care
I just care about them replying to me
the whole point of 4chan is talking to people and so many just do not reply or engage and that's sad

>>84882035
>THAT serious, i better not
don't even think about them actually
they can sense bad energy when you do that
Like that akira meme
>more personal or whatever, but if not maybe just a random thing
sounds alright
Just get some gift looking packaging for it so he doesn't think you picked up some trash off of the floor before walking into the restaurant and you're giving it to him

yeah, i don't that's common practice anymore... anyways, do you know how awkward it is to be so beyond hope that your parents feel they have to intervene? be happy that your parents still believe in you

if youre irl moid doesnt work out would you be willing to settle for a r9k moid online

sure it might be awkward but I wish it would have happen. I never go out so it would be my only chance to get a wife.

>>84881888
>you don't need any of this
Ditto to the house decorations, potpourri, dozens of pairs of shoes, numerous clothes, bath salts, bath bombs, beauty products, and more.
"Knives are cool. The end." <- Average male mindset.

Anyway I again reiterate, that in the context of inexpensive gift ideas, you really can't beat homemade food. Note that there are categories here. 2 dozen cookies? Nice. A sandwich? Not so nice.

>>84882133
>be happy that your parents still believe in you
I would actually be appreciative if my parents intervened. I mean, I don't see why they would as I developed a habit of deliberately antagonizing everyone around me in the most ridiculous ways possible.

i'm not really trying to date at all. i don't think i'd be very good at it. that's why the whole "trying to set me up" thing doesn't make a lot of sense to me or get me excited. i feel like i wouldn't be a great gf, so i would rather just not be one, if that makes any sense
>>84882171
>I never go out so it would be my only chance to get a wife.
hm...do your parents know anyone with children your age? i mean, you could probably always ask them for help, if you're on speaking terms with them. for my personal experience, parents tend to be more invested in your personal life than you yourself are most of the time
>>84882209
>pairs of shoes, numerous clothes, bath salts, bath bombs, beauty products, and more.
all of these are things you use daily or at the very least weekly !! a knife is not
>would actually be appreciative if my parents intervened
from your greentext kinda sounds like you've had opportunities but its mostly your mental block telling you that it won't work. not saying "just trying" is a magical solution, cause that's obviously not always true, but your chances might increase if you just decide to say fuck it and go for it from time to time
>>
>>84882270
I'm a little old for my parents to try to set up me now.
also I think most guys would love to get a knife from a girl. it's a boy thing for sure.
