Q. Me and my boy just recently started dating so I don't wanna go too crazy for a gift for his graduation. I was thinking about getting him a framed picture of him and I, but I'm not sure if that's something a guy would like. Thoughts?
A. Sorry, no.
Not that he would not like that. Just not as a "graduation" gift.
Included with something else, sure, but a guy will not see how special your thought is.
We are just not wired that way.
Get him some neat "guy gift" and put the picture of you in with it.
You both win that way.

Do people buy gifts for graduation parties?
Q. I'm going to a graduation party for someone I know and I'm not sure what the custom is - am I supposed to buy some kind of a gift for my friend or money? Are gifts given at graduation parties?
A. Yes, my brother just graduated and he got gifts from everyone. You can get just a nice card with cash, or if you really know the person get them something meaningful. If you do go with personal try to give them something that will help them in college if graduating high school, or help them in their new life if graduating college.
What is a good gift for graduation from Marine bootcamp?
Q. My boyfriend is in Marine bootcamp in San Diego right now, and I will be going to his graduation this summer. What should I get him for graduation? Please help, I have no idea what to get him.
A. Honestly?
Just love and support him. Be proud of him.
Your attending his graduation, and seeing him afterwards and congratulating him will mean a lot. I spent 20 years in the Navy and I still remember my family and friends who attended my graduation from boot camp... also in San Diego.
Perhaps a picture of the two of you, with him in uniform... something small that he can carry with him.. Something to look at when he gets lonely... or weary... or afraid... or gets tired of hearing the diatribes of the nay-sayers...
Make it small enough to fit in a wallet--that way it will also fit in a pocket. Make it of good quality. And laminate it so that water cannot reach it. And keep a copy so that he can see it when he sees you again.
He can get anything material he needs, and usually at a lower price, through the military. Anything like that, he'll have to carry around. Stuff like that can be lost... or stolen.
What he can't get is evidence of the love and support of those he loves.
At least that worked for me. But you know him better than I do.
