Some of you may remember a few weeks ago when I was trying to decide if I wanted to get my boyfriend an iPad and give it to him while he was visiting from the army. Well, he already left and is in Korea lol and I'm just now getting around to posting my discussions from times when he was here. He kept telling me he didn't want me to buy him an iPad and he was also buying a new laptop when he was visiting. If I didn't get the iPad I knew I would regret it once he left. So I went on the computer and ordered one and had it sent to his house. I had really wanted to get the back engraved with a nice message but the shipping was longer and it wouldn't have gotten here in time before he left for Korea. So I bought it with no engraving. My boyfriend kind of had an idea of what I was getting. He acted like he was mad I was spending money on him but I really knew how much he wanted an iPad and he was actually happy. I know he hates me spending my money on him but there wasn't anything he could do to stop me and I was buying it as an early birthday and Christmas gift since I won't be seeing him for either one because he'll be in Korea. I also knew that if he had an iPad we could still use iMessage to talk to each other for free and facetime. The iPad came and he was thrilled. I'm glad I bought it for him, he really deserved it and I knew he'd love it.

I knew how bad he wanted one even though he said he didn't want me to get him one. He would always play with mine and we'd fight over whose turn it was to play on it lol. He was so happy to get it and I'm glad I got it. Not only did it make him really happy, but it made me feel better knowing that if he didn't get a phone, at least he could still use the iPad to talk to me.

Hi friend, good to hear about this, surely your bf will be surprised a lot while receiving the ipad. It clearly shows your real love. Hope you both have good contacts and communication with each other using the ipad.
