Ride the Staten Island Ferry back and forth. 
Walk! Central Park- pass by the fountain, the boat house, the lake.

There is a show on Timewarner Cable channel 25 (or so) and it is called 9.99
the show is about spending the day in the city for just 9.99
it is on everynight
if you dont have timewarner try googling the show.

Re: fun things to do? for free?..
I've always said that the most fun you can have in NYC with a $10 bill is to get a manicure!  But that won't kill too much time...and not sure your BF would be too into that 
I second the park - whenever we just "went for a walk in the park" we always happened upon something interesting.
You can do the Cloisters - it's a suggested $10 donation...but you don't really have to give that much.

have you ever been to Sony Wonder? it's free, but it's suggested that you reserve a slot in advance online. it's not that big of a deal, but it has some innovative games and stuff, and it's a good way to kill an afternoon.
How about playing with the toys at FAO Schwarz or Toys R US in Times Square?

Haven't been there in ages, but in college I loved to bum around the Village. Have to say though the $10 limit screams Chinatown to me

The metropolitan art museum is a suggested donation - but when I was in school and had to go for my studio classes our professor told us it is a suggested donation and that we should feel free to pay what we could afford. I used to work there for a summer and I know many people pay from .10 cents to only a few dollars - but many don't realize it is just a suggested amount.
You could walk around central park afterwards - or take a walk down 5th ave and window shop on the way to penn station
