i've given my boyfriend little presents in the past months.. but i've never received a gift from him. i mean i'm not asking to be showered with gifts.. but you know.. possibly a THANK YOU note/card. something :/
he never pays me back when he says he will.
help?
also i think he's mad at me. because this guy likes me and gave me roses for the past few days.. i dont know what to do ?
Additional info, added Thursday June 7 2007, 5:34 pm: He does have money and he said he would repay me back countless times. Never has though. I'm not expecting many gifts. In this relationship, he remembers every little detail and whatnot. I'm the one who seems to forget things. So it's a bit mixed up here hah.
I'm not going to leave my boyfriend for my friend. Because roses.. are just roses.

Listen, guys are just that way. Or at least a good chunk of them are.
We ladies are more of what you'd call 'romantics'. Gifts, flowers, cards, all that warm and fuzzy stuff, and guys generally don't tend to be into that sort of thing. We are just so different from each other, yet so much the same.
A woman can remember every detail of the day they first met, down to how many stripes were on his shirt, and a guy is lucky to remember his wedding anniversary.
We are just different from each other in how we do things. That includes giving gifts to one another.
See what I'm getting at, here?
Just think of it this way- when he DOES give you a gift, it will mean so much more to you than it would if he gave you little gifts and cards all of the time.
If he is a good guy, and his only flaws is not having money to pay back and gifts to give, then I would keep him around. Material possessions are merely material.
Don't ever let a guy sweep you off your feet just because he has a truck full of roses to give to you. Yah, it's romantic and all, but what if he's really a complete jerk who hides behind romance? Hmmm...

I'm not a man-hater or anything, but guys usually don't think about anything like that. He doesn't seem like the type you would want to be with anyway. You should get rid of him and check out the rose guy. He seems to be the worthy one.
