Are you hoping that your sweetheart brings something home for you ?

well i don't expect a gift everyday but tell u what at least at the day of 14 th Feb i can expect something from my partner... and its not about becoming selfish to expect something from ur partner it is a normal desire of every normal human being and there is nothing wrong with it... well i think u shpuld talk to ur hubby about that...

no you are just like the millions of us who don't like to be taken for granted and like to feel special..my hubby..and i we joke a bout how unromantic he is i mean in the western sort of way...i am terribly romantic..i have just braved heaps of snow with a chesty chest to get candles..new bedding..i bought him a glass buddha and some more clothes..put them in a gift bag on the bed..we already bought each other a chinese outfit for new year and i am not expecting him to bring me back anything save some wings and fries cos that's what we arranged lol..and yes would be nice to get a piece of bling or something that he would go out and get but not all men are the same..he does other little things that count..little caring things..try to see the little things he does for you and see if it makes you feel any better.. we love unconditionally..what we get is always a bonus.. you are special remember that..with or without that piece of bling lol.. i have no rings yet on my fingers but i have a guy with a good heart.. love and big hug from me..

No you are not beeing selfish - we all want this att times, to feel that we are special. I am one of the lucky ones. My bf brings me flowers and other stuff every now and then so I feel special for him all the time. yesterday he brought home roses for me - so cute!

I'm so sorry to hear you are sick on Valentine's Day. My husband wouldn't think to get me anythink but last night I told him that I didn't want flowers, just a box of chocolate...knowing full well that he had no intention of buying anything. Well, he surprised me this evening with a box of chocolates. Of course he will probably eat the best part of them while watchin tv later this evening. I hope you are feeling better soon, and maybe you can celebrate your Valentine's day at the weekend. Best wishes.

Well, I don't have a sweetheart so pretty sure I'll be getting nothing. I do remember many a year though when I would watch the door hoping for a beautiful bunch of floors or take a little extra look in hopes of spotting a small box from the jewelry store. No, I don't think you are being selfish I think you are just being a romantic, nothing wrong with that as long you don't take it out on your sweetheart when you don't get what you hoped for. I'm counting this as my Valentine gift - early this morning I heard a snow plow outside my window. I couldn't figure out what was going on, no idea who it was but they were plowing the foot plus of snow from my driveway. I found out when a man from church knocked on the door and asked for my van keys so he could move it and plow the spot where it was parked. He explained the lead pastor at church had called and asked him to come plow my drive. That was soooo sweet, of both of them. Pastor lives just down the road from me and passes my house on his way to the church so am guessing he saw the "mess" and decided to help me out.

My husband is the same way - After showering him with some pretty awesome gifts he sat there and said "Hmm .. I thought Valentines Day was toward the end of the month" and left it at that .. I thought for sure he'd go out and get me some flowers or something but no.. Nothing.. Just an "Oops". Grrrrr

I am very sorry to hear that you are not well.Never mind every day is a Valentine day,every minute is a valentine minutes,so enjoy and celebrate it with you husband.Wish you a very speedy recovery.

You should go ahead and wilsh him all the same. Anyway did you wish him? How was your valenties day? My hubby bought me fish as I love to eat fish and he doesn't like it so I don't buy it.

i new for 100% sure he didn't bring me something special and i was right! this man is as romantic as a block of wood! i bought a card for my mdaughters to give to their daddy, and that's all what happend on valentines day. but i don't mind, i prefer getting something on a normal day, with the surprise, but i know that is not going to happen, i keep on dreaming!

no i think your not being selfish its just that your expecting your guy to do something thats not in his nature thats why you get upset after finding out he hasn't brought you anything. my guy often is the more thoughtful one than me but we never had any misunderstanding or bad feelings about this.

I don't think you are selfish at all. When a hubby brings home gifts to his wife, it makes his wife feel special. I was hoping that my hubby would bring me home flowers. But i didn't get any flowers, i did get a gift thou. It was a cat. I'm like 'what in the world were you thinking'. lol

I'm one of those rare females that think Valentine's Day is another one of those holidays kids get to have fun with, but for adults its just geared towards how much money you can spend on someone. Most women, and probably some men, just end up disappointed because they didn't get the ring or flowers or other display of devotion they wanted. My hubby and I don't generally exchange gifts on any holiday, with four kids we focus on them. Our anniversary is pretty much the only day we celebrate for ourselves.

When you get married, have kids you think about your priorities now. When we were still dating he was kind of big in giving valentine gifts, but now there are three kids i would often tell him not to get me anything, or if he really want to give me, that it just be food so the whole family can enjoy it. But always there is a hidden feeling from me that hope he gives me flowers, makes me feel good. This valentines (and for the past years)he also comes home with single stemmed rose each for his two daughters and for me. And then we would trk to the kids fave restaurant and let the play in the playground. That for me is enough celebration.

I feel the same. My bf isn't a gift-giving type of lover as well. Unless i tell him what i want and that i want something, he wouldn't give me anything. you are not being selfish, it's just sometimes you also want to feel appreciated, feel that your partner took his time to think about you and what you would like. it's always nice to sometimes get something, it doesn't have to be expensive, just something to say that i'm thinking of you.

i dont think your being selfish i feel the same way. ive been married to my husband 8 months Friday. i havent seen anything yet. last year at this time we had been together8 months and i got nice roses. i didnt know what to get him this year so i just got him a really nice card that had a token in it that he could redeem for well ya know lmao. i just cant understand why i havent at least got a card but hes at work right now he could have something when he comes home :)

yah, my husband is same with your husband, he's a great guy, but he is not a type who would surprise me of something, but it doesn't bother me, coz i knew it before we get married.

who wouldn't want to receive gifts?i'mjnust agirl , and of ocurse i do love surprises but when i know that we are saving for something important,i tell him not to give gifts. though i told him that,i received a bouquet of flowers this valentine's day and it is enough gesture for me.i already told him not to give me anything expensive so we could buy a nice bike for our daughter.he maynot given me a gift but he surprised us with an italian buffet dinner.:)

That would be a great surprise!! My husband usually gets me good gifts, after one Mother's Day he didn't do anything for me. I felt horrible not getting acknowledged on a Mommy's special day. Ever since then he always gets me stuff. But I know what you mean, just something extra special, maybe he will since he knows you aren't feeling well. Let us know if he gets you anythign!!

it doed not make me feel mad and i think your being increadably selfish.

gezz it sucks that you are sick. My bf gave me my gifts yesterday because he had to go to town so he just picked them up then. It was a major surprise for me.
