i have never been one big on holidays but i found myself pretty hurt today. i sent Him an ecard and He never acknowledged it. When i asked Him if He got it, He said yes ty hun. That's it. No Happy Valentine's Day, no nothing except ty hun. i couldn't help it, i cried for two hours before i finally emailed Him and let Him know that He had hurt me. He said He has been alone so long that it doesn't register anymore. My response was that He may live alone still but He has not been alone for 6 months.. that's how long we have been together. am i wrong? should i have not been hurt?

Some do not celebrate VDAY. Others have horrible memories of it. Others just don't realize how much it means to their significant others. He should know how bad it hurt you, but I also believe you have to understand His position as well. I'm not saying you are wrong...you are not. You and I both know a relationship works both ways. Chin up doll...I know He loves you, and did not mean to hurt you. I am also sorry that I did not know about this so I could have been there for you.

Well obviously he didn't to hurt her, but he has, and he should apologize for it. We have all been alone for a while at a certain point of our lives, but being alone doesn't turn ourselves into insensitive beings, and hey it's been 6 months, not 10 years, it's not that long. The being alone part sounds like EXCUSES to me.

He has been alone for years hun. We have been together for 6 months. Once He realized that He hurt me, He did apologize .. not just once either. After our normal good night ritual, i thought He was gone to bed, and He imd me with "goodnight hun and Happy Valentine's Day". i guess what got to me the most was this: when i am having a bad day or something has happened to upset me, He does little things to turn my tears to smiles. He'll tell me He's going to bed and then pop up a half hour or so later with a poem He's written or a song that He's sang.. He is so talented and He knows how much i love hearing Him sing and how much i love His poems. He's always doing little things to make me smile.. even on the worst days. So, Him forgetting about Valentine's Day really shocked me.

Well first of all Hugs for you hon. I do think you have enough reasons to feel bad with his attitude. You send him a card with all your heart and all you get is a "ty" ? come on. A relationship is based on reciprocity no matter what shape that reciprocity adopts, and i am sure that you know what i am talking about. About him saying he's been alone for a long time...that only has one name: Excuses. Anyway we will talk bout it later ok?

well try 8 years of being with someone and nothing for V-day.. it doesn't bother me none, it is just stupid holidays.. holidays are for rich people because it seems that only poor people get upset. either the givers or the receivers get upset because 1 they didn't get the right thing for the other or the receivers are upset that it was something they really didn't want.. i hate holidays all except for one that will never let you down and basically noone gives you anything which is halloween.. don't be upset it is just a waste of time.. the world is nothing but trouble and the world is nothing but money this and that.. halloween is the time for you spirit to be free from this world and take in the amazing stuff that don't cost anything.. yes i know e-cards don't cost anything but still.

I would've been hurt too but don't hold it against him. Guys tend to do that on Valentine's day A LOT!! I've had it happen to me several times. It just the way some men are. Expecially ones who aren't use to celebrating it. If I were you I would forgive and tell him to make sure he doesn't forget next year lol. Good luck and I hope your day turns around for you.
