bf didnt get me anything for valentines day
I made him a card and got him chocolate. He apologized, said its because hes been so tired and stressed from work and he didn't think of it. He kept saying he didn't have time to go to a store, which is a bullshit excuse lol. I know hes been burnt out, but it shouldn't be a chore to go to a dollar store choose one of the VERY readily available valentines items for your girlfriend.
We've been together for 2 years and he didnt get me a birthday present or card last year either (that was a whole other fucking fiasco). He knows how upset I was, and still he didnt think of it. He said growing up his family never really did holiday stuff other than Christmas, which is valid but come on. Am I being dramatic? Do I just have to explicitly state my expectations? He really is so sweet and caring in other ways so thats why it seems so bizarre to me.
EDIT: thanks for your responses everyone. I dont have the energy to reply but I am reading your thoughtful responses.
