Anniversary Idea- Need Opinons

[Hildy]

On January 26th of next year, my SO and I will be celebrating 2 years together! I am already working on his present, which is a photo book with varies events and pictures from our time together. However, before I thought of my new idea, I wasn't going to be able to be with him on the day because I will be back in school.

This anniversary means so much to us. Our relationship has been nothing short of difficult these past two years and with recently becoming LD, things have been more difficult. Despite our struggles, however, we have grown closer and love each other more now than ever and I couldn't be more thankful to be a part of his life and he a part of mine.

That is why I've come up with the idea of coming home after my classes are done that day and surprising him with a visit. Now I know that most people say that this is a bad idea to just stop by unannounced, but I know his schedule well and I know his family well, so maybe if I coordinated it with his family and mine that maybe it would be better.

I really think he would love this, and I really want to share that day with him.

Suggestions, opinions, and thoughts are welcome.

Absolutely great idea.
I love surprise visits and I love being the one making them . and I have not met a person that wouldn't like those. Yes, I have heard from people how they'd hate it (in fact, my SO said that before I surprised him too), but then, once it happens eveyone is way too happy and excited to be thinking whether it was a good or a bad idea (my SO still mentions the surprise visit as the best gift he had ever received ).
Definitely let someone know though, as for your SO, as you don't want to be interrupting his plans or anything, maybe tell him you have a special gift for him for your anniversary and you'd like to set a skype date for exactly that day and that hour. And then at the mentioned time you just show up at his place? That way you make sure he'll be free then

I think it's a good idea. Surprise visit = win.

OMG, you guys will be two years together exactly when me and my SO will be 3 years together! and the day we will get married too (our third birthday),

so it is a very special date for us as well. <3


That said, I would love to be able to make such a surprise to my SO if I could! I think it is amazing!

I like it Just as others have said, make sure you coordinate with someone so you know he'll be around. The skype date was a good idea.
