My boyfriend is not romantic
My boyfriend and i have been going out for a year now. I have come to accept the fact that he is just not the type who give gifts and all. But i thought at our first valentines together, he would at least give me something. I am not materialistic but im sure i am not the only one who wishes that our special someone will put some efforts in surprising us during special occasions. My birthday passed, Christmas and new year, the only gift he gave me is the couples ring we both buy for each other. Dont get me wrong, i know he loves me, i am certain of that. He knows how disappointed i was last valentines day because he led me to believe he is up to something. I am not wishing he'd be all hopelessly romantic, but on love days i really really wish he'd grow a tiny bone of romance.

I mean did you know he was this way before you start dating...? You can't force an unromantic guy to be romantic. You should talk to him though. But as you said you are certain he loves you, and even though because he loves you you're going to want him to go out of his way to show it or spring the mister romance side on you... that just might not be who he is. But you should be happy just being in a relationship where you are secure enough to know he loves you without all the extraness.

What i would say is to talk to him about this. this is something that obviously bothering you and you have a point. Every girl wants to feel special and get a gift from their boy friends. i would just say to talk to him because nothings going to change unless you say something.
