On Monday, I gave my boyfriend a Christmas present. He told me he loved it. We just got out of school Tuesday and I didn't get even a Christmas card from him. I know it's not Christmas yet but I don't think he is going to get me anything. Is that a sign that he doesn't like me anymore? Oh and my birthday is 5 days after Christmas as well. Please help me!!! I REALLY like him!!! Thanx!

Believe it or not,,, but this has nothing to do with whether or not he loves you..
This has to do with male insensitivities. Some men are just insensitive. They DON'T THINK about how someone they care about may think about their thoughtlessness.
Now the typical male is trainable, however, he will need careful instructions. Next time you talk to him remind him that Christmas is for gift-giving and that goes double to guys who have girlfriends. Birthdays are also for gift-giving. This may require some effort for him, but he needs to work on his sensitivity. You will have to remind him of dates, anniversaries, birthdays etc. at least until be begins to catch on.
Sorry, but it sounds like you have a boy friend with all the sensitivity of a water buffalo. Not all boys are that bad, but some boys have it in their genes.

My boyfriend is 18, and for Christmas I'm just getting him a couple little things he'll like. Like a funny shirt and a book. But for our one year in January I'm getting him an ID bracelet, with his name on the outside and an engraving on the inside that says I love you, or something special like that. Depends how serious the relationship is!

ok, first off how long have you guys been dating for? cuz if it hasn't been that long, he may not be feeling any sort of seriousness to the relationship and so may not feel the need to get you anything. however, if it has been a long time, there could be a few different reasons for why he didnt get you a present. first off, because your birthday is so close to christmas, he may have wanted to save his money so that he could get you a really nice present for your birthday (this could also be the same for if you've only been going out for a little while). he may want to get you something so nice that it would be able to be considered a present for both occasions. second, he could still surprise you with something really nice. for all you know, he could have been acting like he wasnt gonna get you nething to suprise you. lastly, he could very possibly not get you anything at all. there are two ways to take this. one (if you havent been going out very long) just let it go. he proabably isnt feeling the relatyionship yet. second, (if you have been going out for a while) ask him why, let him know that it kind of bothers you. and lastly, if you still feel concerned by it, just talk to him and tell him that you took the time to get him somthing so it's unfair of him to not do the same for you. if he is disrespectful to you, let him go
good luck!

BREATHE! its ok! he will get you one by christmas day, even maybe ON christmas day! just hang out with him during it and dont avoid him. dont worry, everything will be fine. he might even get you a bigger present so that it covers christmas AND your birthday (the perks of having your birthday so close to a holiday!) dont worry about it i'm sure hes still interested in you, or else he wouldnt have asked you out in the first place! good luck!

Its not christmas for 4 more days, give him a second woman, you picked him for a boyfriend. Men have to be bad off not to get his "girl" something.

He find have something special planned ON Christmas. Did he ask you if you had any plans. Or maybe he has something big planned for your birthday and hes combining gifts? Good luck!

Wait until after Christmas to be wondering about this.

depending on how long you two have been going out, he might not have thought he should give you one. boys are sometimes slow when it comes to things like this. don't get too offended though if he didn't get you anything, because if you guys are young (like lower high school or middle school) and can't drive, he might not have been able to get a ride or money from someone, which is why he couldn't get you anything.

is your relationship based on gifts that he may or may not give you?? It's not even Christmas yet, maybe he wants to wait until Christmas.. doesn't sound like you have a very good relationship if you are worried about getting gifts.

maybe he's doing sumthing big for both. you can't expect him to get you a birthday and christmas present. plus presents aren't everything.
