Right now I act normal I don't want to show him that it really bothers me but I think he can tell. Yeh I'm gonna try to be happy & without the long face...thanks mamabear u made feel better:)

It's understandable, I think we would all feel the same way. They can be stubborn sometimes...they need to learn to pick their battles too. :)

Tomorrow I'd confuse him by being ridiculously happy and telling him that you love him more than he could ever understand. And then be happy, no matter what he does. You have a good relationship, a beautiful daughter, and if necessary, go out and get yourself some flowers or maybe just treat yourself to a movie and a manicure. Create your own joy, and next year maybe he'll remember your conversation.

Thank u for all ur reply yeh already talk to him b4 about this & I have a feeling his doing it in purpose but why would he if he knows that it bothers me..? but  yeh u guys are right shouldn't be a big deal it's just that feelings sigh:(

I think guys think differently about this stuff that we do. To them, if they show you they love you everyday - and it sounds like this guy really does - so they don't get the big deal. And sometimes they don't like to feel pressured for gift-giving, they want it to be impulsive and come from them. So I agree, sit him down and tell him that it does mean something to you and you'd appreciate he'd at least acknowledge it, but I wouldn't pressure him for anything this year. Pick your battles, in the long run it's more important that he be an all-around good guy to you and your daughter than that he get you a card or flowers.

Girl dont feel to bad, yeah it means alot to us but some guys are not into that . As you being in a relationship with him , for that long . It will be best to sit him down & let him know how important this is/was to you . Maybe hes gettin YOU SOMETHING BIG & THE STORE CLOSED LOL . DNT PUT UR GUARDS DOWN.
