He even showed what he got me to my family to see if I'd like it. He doesn't understand how impatient I am, and my curiosity is driving me insane. Ever since I was little I've always known what I was getting for Christmas. Unfortunately though, he really wants it to be a big surprise so I'm trying to not ask...even though I know I could convince my mom to tell me. He's hinted that it's not jewelery, but lately he's been going all out, and even took me to a spa for a massage and planning on getting my family all kinds of gifts. Anyone have any clue what it might be or to keep from obsessing over it? PS: *It can't be a ring as he doesn't plan on getting married til after college so I'm all out of ideas!!*

 My ex was this way and I hated it. I like the surprise and seeing the surprise in someone's face when they open a gift. I think you should drop it, or do what TasteofIndia says and get him something awesome that you can tease him with.
If you find out what he got you it will ruin the surprise he really wants to give you. It will likely ruin his Christmas. Why do that when you don't have to?

 If only we had x-ray vision...I too hate surprises, I'd rather know ahead of time what I'm getting.
You could be sneaky, look around his place for receipts, of if you come across a wrapped gift, the most you could do is shake it and listen to the contents. Think real hard, you may have mentioned what you wanted for Christmas in front of him. But sadly, you're going to have to wait till Christmas Eve or Christmas to get your present. Do note that even though he's going all out now, he could be getting you something small for Christmas since you guys haven't been together all that long.

 Dear Anom,
Reading through you sound so much of my kid sister she does the same with her boyfriend or when i get her a gift.
Hmmm Jewellery would have been my first guess. But did you mention anything recently to him that you would have really loved to have?if not that dont think it will be an easy one to guess.
I know it is hard but if he is not telling I would advise a little more patience. Christmas is just a little more than a month a way.
All the best and do let us know what it was!
Hugs
Kelly

Just be thankful that you have a great boyfriend who does nice things for you and your family and has even got your present two months in advance. You have alot to be thankful for so focus on that. Christmas will come around soon enough.

 What are you getting him for Christmas? Get him something pretty awesome and then you can have fun torturing him as well.
Don't try to guess too much. Whenever I do that, I always end up disappointed... assume he bought you a box of garbage bags, or a puzzle or something really lame. Then whatever he has actually gotten you will delight and amaze you! Good luck, sweet thing!
