he took me out for dinner but didn't give me any gift or card for our one month anniversary..we dated for 5 months and became a couple a month ago.

many other things tells that he loves me and he said that he loves me..and but should I be upset or doubt his love because of this?

i am not asking for any pricy gift..just a small thing..but I didnt even get a card

should I be upset??

For a *one month* anniversary? I personally wouldn't expect a thing (nor would I think he would expect something). I would be upset if he didn't acknowledge a real milestone, not for something like this. A one month anniversary? Seems to me to be as contrived as a "half-birthday".

Save your emotions for more important things.

Uh, no. One month isn't, exactly, a milestone. .... well shouldn't be...if it is, you have bigger fish to fry.

One month? Short answer - He** no!

Curious; what did you get him?

If he doesn't get you anything for your one year anniversary, I would look into it. However, one month is nothing to fret over. -mmccul

One MONTH?! Most people (even women past their early 20s at the latest) don't even remember such things!

I'll answer this with a short story. I dated a guy that recently, after 33 years, told me out of all the women he's dated, I was the only one who never wanted anything from him but him; that I never expected anything, even when it was 'socially expected', you know, Valentines Day, etc. I really never did expect anything and when I got it, I was very surprised. He said he was always amazed at how grateful I was for any small thing and he never forgot that. I still don't expect things from people. I hope I never change in that regard but at my age, I doubt I will.

A little high maintenance? Be glad he took you out for dinner; he didn't have to do that.

Yes you are- You better be glad he took you out for the one month.

IMO outside of a wedding anniversary, the rest are pointless and mean something only to those who find them dear. I won't buy my girl a gift for our one year anniversary of dating- because we never established when we were exclusive. It just happened. Now I know the first night we kissed, but I'm not buying a gift for that either. It's pointless and becomes a burden to the person it doesn't mean anything to, trying to remember all these random anniversaries.

I'd be upset if he did remember your one month anniversary if you're female. As there would be little doubt that he'd have to be gay.
