Self centered?? Absolutely not. I love hard and give my all but I also know my worth...so with that being said I know my expectations weren't unreasonable.
You never commented on my post, it's not a compliment to his character but do you think he was basically giving you a reason to "dump him"?
I mean, unless he has been doing crap like this the last 4+ months....it's pretty blatant that his actions are relationship ending.
op the fact you even mentioned your bday shows what a brat you are
YOU tell him to lose your number, he does and you're mad at him?if someone tells me to lose their number I'm never calling them again.Your birthday was after you told him this.
stop playing games
Here's the story..I've been dating him since Oct after we reconnected (I've known him for quite some time). I had minor surgery the week before Valentine's day plus I ended up catching a nasty cold. I was just completely miserable, down and out. Valentine's day came around and he did absolutely NOTHING for me..not even a phone call or text message (to even check up on me) and to make matters worse, my birthday was the next day. I was extremely crushed and livid. He never had an explanation for me so I just ended everything..
Pat yourself on the back. Sounds like you did yourself a great service..The guy sounds like a p ick...When you were sick, he should have been there to help you out. That's besides the doing nothing for valentines day.. You 100% did the right thing. I don't even know why you are questioning it..Like others have said. I'm surprised he lasted that long. This one should be an easy one to get over..Not much substance to him.
Yes, well you are young and eventually will grow out of that kind of churlishness, one would hope. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you've never really had a girlfriend or been in love, so I'm going to take this ranting from its source, because when the time comes, you will either change your tune because you realize how trite and silly you're being, or you'll get dumped just like the OP's boyfriend.
You, and the others who are raging on and on about this, are not making any great statement about commercialism. You're just making yourselves look petty and childish. With all of the injustice in the world, with all of the war and poverty, with the state of the economy and the nation as a whole with millions still out of work and all of the pressing issues of the day, you folks are going to rant and rave about a holiday that celebrates love? Really?
Good luck with that.
Do you really need to have a special commercialized day to celebrate your love?
Really?
I don't care about Valentine's Day, but if the person I was dating did, then I'd be sure to at least do something small. Make them a nice dinner or whatnot. You don't have to buy 10 teddy bears and dozens of roses and chocolates. Or at least tell them Happy Valentine's Day.
OP, I think you're better off without this guy. But remember, if you tell someone to never speak to you again, they may not. I think maybe you were hoping he'd respond saying oh no, please forgive me and are disappointed he didnt?
So basically if I do something nice for a SO on 2/13 or 2/15, I should get dumped because I strongly believe V-day is full of and refuse to celebrate it?
If you want to make a stand at the expense of your SO that's up to you but they can respond accordingly. So that says that your SO is less important to you then making a stand; you needn't spend a lot of money, or any money at all. A nice phone call or a simple Happy Valentine's Day or even an extra I love you will all be appreciated. You make a stand by not spending lot of money, not by blowing off your so.
I give my kids' teachers birthday cards, for heaven's sake. No, OP, you weren't overreacting. He's lost that lovin' feeling. You did exactly the right thing. Hugs, I feel bad that your SO blew off V-Day plus your birthday.
I got him a pair of sneakers which I promptly returned. Also I had oral surgery.
