Is this normal for a boyfriend to do?

A couple months ago my boyfriend and I had our 2 year anniversary and he didnt get me anything for it. It was a day he had a lot of work and school and he said he didnt have time to get me anything. I made him a really nice sculpture and got him flowers, he didnt even seem that thankful for them. He also completely ignored Valentines Day as well. I made him some cookies and got him a card. He got me nothing, not even a card.





Its not like im asking for much, I dont want any expensive things. I just wanted those special days to be recognized with maybe just some flowers or a card, especially our anniversary.





He said he would make up for them and he never did.





I know he loves me very much and we love spending time together, but why doesnt he recognize these special days even just a little? Is this normal? Are some guys just like this?

Yeah, some guys are like this. They either:


-Never learned to recognize special occasions at home, so they don%26#039;t put any importance on it.


- They think it is too mushy and they are too manly, or busy, to be mushy.


- They find it wastes their money, so they find reasons not to recognize the occasion.


- They just don%26#039;t really care about special occasions, feeling that how they treat you everyday should be enough.





I think he does this out of ignorance more than lack of feeling. You should still recognize the holiday/occasion and keep encouraging him to reciprocate, he needs to learn how to recognize special occasions and use those times to show his girlfriend that he cares, that is what it is all about.
Reply:Some guys are just like that. You get what you put up with.
Reply:i know a bunch of guys like that.


try talking to him and explaining why those days mean so much to you and that you would really like him to acknowledge them.
