Making a "Boyfriend Survival Kit"- Help Please!

in Sex & Relationships
Hello people! :)

For Valentines Day this year- I've decided to try and be a bit creative.. So to that end I'm trying to make a Boyfriend Survival Kit to give to my girlfriend.

I've got a small shoebox, and I plan to cover it in black and red material inside and out- then get some small fridge-magnet-style multimcoloured letters to spell out BOYFRIEND SURVIVAL KIT across the top of the lid.

Then the plan is to fill it with items that will help her "endure" the relationship with me lol- obviously this is to be fairly light hearted and a bit of a joke!

This is where I've got a bit stuck- thinking of items to put in it!

So far I have headache tablets, Earplugs, a light-hearted relationship book, and a magazine with an article on "Dynamite Sex Tips!" Lol.

Does anybody have any other ideas? :)

    I'm liking the chocolate idea- I've gone and bought a massive bar of galaxy and am now in the process of making a custom wrapper for it- an "Emergency Use" wrapper, with the First aid cross as the background.

    Keep the ideas coming! :)

    Print off some vouchers for various chores such as cooking dinner, cleaning the house, doing the washing, making the beds etc. then when she gets fed up of you lazing about she can just throw them at you :p

    I'd also suggest a mini bottle of wine :p

    Could even throw in a bridget jones DVD tbh.

    Behind you where you can never see them, if that makes sense. Sorry for drifting offtopic.

    Lol at the off-topic!! :P

    Just an update- me and a female collegue (who is much better at this sort of thing, if I'm honest!!) have been putting all the bits together- we've dressed up the lid in a silk material that she had spare (just got to do the box), and I've bought most of the things to go in it.

    I liked the idea of a mini bottle of Wine.. She likes Rôse, so in it goes!

    I've still got to print out the Chocolate wrapper, and get some fridge magnet-style letters for the lid- but overall it's coming along nicely!

    Please keep the ideas coming- as I don't think it's far off! :)

    A long over-due update!!

    I really struggled trying to get hold of some fridge magnet letters- so in the end I went to a craft store and found some foam stick-on letters that have worked really well. The lid is done, the outside of the box is done- I've just got to finish the inside in the red silk that I've got... And then it's finished! I'll post up completed pics soon!

    You should have added an aspirin so "Not tonight, I've got a headache."-trick becomes null and void. Nobody said you can't draw advantages out of your own present ;)

    /edit: a real thoughtful present I might add, however. Friends of mine (4 dudes) got such a boys-flatshare-kit when they moved in together.

    IT'S FINISHED!

    It already has headache tablets- one of the first things I thought of lol!

    Full list of contents is:

    * "Stress Survival" chocolate bar
    * Relaxing Spa body lotion and bath creme
    * Tension-busting headache tablets (lol)
    * Earplugs- so she doesn't have to listen to me!
    * Anti-deodorant- for masking bad smells!
    * Rosè Wine- for drinking away the stress I cause!

    The vouchers idea made it into the card- plus I made up my own voucher to put in it- "redeemable" for a long weekend away during her Easter break from Uni, just the two of us.

    Hopefully it'll all be a success, and thanks for all the ideas! :)
