Selfish girlfriend?

I tend to have trouble giving gifts, mainly cause I cant really think of something I know they will like. Sometimes though, i can find a really good gift.It makes me feel bad to give a gift that wasnt very good. They say its the thought that counts, but it feels like they're staring daggers at me if they don't like the gift

It sucks that he wont give you anything in return, but it sucks that you're actually expecting him to. What's selfish is the fact that you're making him feel obligated to give you stuff by buying/making him stuff all the time. I loved to make stuff for my bf too, but after a while it just caused angst because one of our gifts would always be better than the other. So we decided not to get each other stuff for things like holidays n' what'not. Everyone has their own way of showing affection, but most people are no good at giving gifts :p

I honestly don't like buying things for gfs.
Maybe special occasions like Christmas, anniversary, birthday, other than that, no, and I don't expect anything either.

You're not selfish. Try stopping giving him gifts for a while, and if he picks up on it, not only will alarm bells ring to remind him he should get you something, but also if he mentions it, you can drop a subtle hint to him.

You alone are a sufficient gift to him if you are a good girl :)
(if that's not true your relationship might not last)

Just give him yourself, if that's not enough nothing will ever be.

Why do you have to use the gifts as a proxy of yourself to get to him? Is he too distant so you by yourself can't seem to reach him? Do you feel like he needs something to remind him of you?

(sorry for my bad english)

I would hate if my girlfriend would non-stop buy me things (whatever that is)

Just give him your love, everything else is a junk! Stop bombarding him with stuff, we guys hate it (unless we get used to it, then we don't care).

I was in the same situation really recently. At first the guy gave me little things even just a cute text pic was enough to make me happy but then nothing.

I always sent him stuff, made him feel good and got almost nearly nothing in return.

Just cool down giving him things, I think if he really cares about you he'll notice the change and lack of gifts and if not, well you might have some thinking to do.

Either way, good luck :)

I understand how you feel, I tend to give more to my gf than she does to me. Don't expect your bf to change though, if you want to be with him you just need to accept that he may not be the most giving guy. Don't stop giving him things to get back at him though, that will just lead to more problems.

Normal. Whats his deal? Stop making & buying him things until he shows you the same amount youre giving him.

It's normal cause ur giving tons but ur not getting anything in return.
