Tell your partner that you enjoy celebrating Valentine's Day and were hoping for a gift. Suggest the possibility of an alternative "Valentine's Day" just for the two of you. Be sure to use "I-statements" while discussing the subject. I-statements usually begin with "I feel" and go on to explain your emotions. Don’t blame yourself if your partner, despite knowing how much Valentine’s Day, didn’t give you anything. Valentine’s Day, in addition to being adequate for people to fall in love more, also knows how to open some burning questions in the relationship. If you love that day so much, don’t let it go to waste because of a lousy partner. Maybe you don’t need to find more energy, maybe you just need to find a dream that makes you actually want to get up in the morning. Maybe you need to find something that gives back more than it takes. Maybe you need to stop trying to be good at the hundred things that do not light up your soul, and finally choose the one that does— the one I was always triggered around Valentine’s Day when they didn’t plan or get me anything. I realize it’s a dumb holiday but when they made zero effort the other 364 days, you hope that maybe on Valentine’s Day, when there are boxes of chocolate or bouquets of flowers front and center at every grocery store, they’ll do SOMETHING. Girl, read this post thoroughly, as it will save your sanity. I will tell you what to do if your boyfriend doesn’t get you anything for Valentine’s Day! —> In case you are reading this in advance, let me save you some time: jump to this section of the post, so you avoid the major disappointment. There is nothing wrong with you. You certainly deserve gifts. Your boyfriend’s failure to get you cards and flowers is probably all about his own relationship with his emotions; it has very little if anything to do with how he feels about you. The male mind is a funny thing. Men are born with all the tender and vulnerable emotions that women You know that you told your boyfriend Valentine’s day is important, you told him about your favorite flowers, gave him your work address, sent him a list of gifts you wanted, heck, you even sent chocolates and a gift to his house! Don’t get your hopes up, but the reason why your boyfriend hasn’t given you your Valentine's gift yet is that you’re in for a surprise treat. This is one common scheme, and your boyfriend might want you to think that he really forgot to give you a gift when in fact, he already has everything lined up for you. #2. Ask questions. Another good tactic is to respond by asking some questions. This has the dual benefit of buying you time to react, and figuring out the reasoning behind the choice. Yet one of the burning questions men who have been in a long-term relationship face is what to give a woman who says: “I don’t want anything for Valentine’s Day.” Plenty of advice gurus will tell you that this is a trap and that a woman who says this doesn’t mean it. And plenty of men have had experiences that bear this advice out I don’t think you’re upset because he didn’t spend money on you, I think you’re upset because he did nothing even though you both discussed doing a gift exchange. I think you just need to explain to him how his actions came across, and how it made you feel insignificant. People who never get anything for other holidays (birthdays, Christmas, etc.) get their hopes up for Valentine’s Day. I’ve dated two guys who didn’t even bother to call me on my birthday and yet still got my hopes up that this would finally be the day they show out for promising to do better. There are some guys who doesn't like celebrating Valentines Day and for them, it's just any regular day. In any case, he clearly don't know you at all since he didn't get you anything for Valentines Day and you would have wanted to be given something nice or at least taken you somewhere romantic like a revolving restaurant. I'm so sorry to hear Female here, No I don't want anything for Valentine's day, I don't get upset at my man if he does or doesn't, I think last year he gave me a card. maybe, i don't remember-- like i said, I'm ambivalent. You should definitely get him something for Valentines day. In fact, he may even feel embarrassed or confused as to why he got you something but you didn't think you had to. I don't usually like Valentine's Day because I'm part of the "every day should be Valentine's Day" club, but when that's not true, it woud be nice to get that special affection one day out of the year :/ So I feel your pain on this one! Hope things look up soon, I'm sending you a belated Valentine's hug and flowers :) you two should both take a love languages quiz so you know how each of you expresses your love. Also, Valentine’s day is just a holiday invented for consumers to spend money, you should focus on spending time together not buying plush toys and flowers in my opinion. My bf and I never do anything super fancy for valentine’s day A board game night is perfect for a free Valentine's Day night in. Grab all your favorites and have some fun together doing something you don't get to do all the time. This is a great choice if you have kids that you'll be sharing the holiday with this year. You'll have some great memories and create a great opportunity to bond with anyone you It gets more complicated when you have not had the talk and Valentine's Day is approaching. You don't want to speed up the nature of your relationship by asking her a week before Valentine's Day if you are exclusive, but you also don't want to look foolish if you choose not to give her a Valentine's Day gift and she ends up giving you one! Yeah I guess. I’m just kinda nervous it gives off signs that I’m too attached or too invested after only 2 dates (and I’d be giving it to her on the third). I don’t think either of us are Valentine’s Day people and I don’t wanna make her feel pressure, which si the only thing. But also, it’s like $10-15
