My girlfriend of almost a year knew that I was getting her stuff for V-day, but she didn't bother to do anything at all for me. I told her that it would have been nice if she had gotten me something or done something, but she said that V-day is supposed to be guys getting stuff for girls. That sounds crappy to me. Am I right to be mad about this?

I think you do have the right to be mad at her it doesnt matter who got what or how many things you bought her for valentines is supposed to be just a day of showing how much you mean to each other (even though you can do that any other day not just valentines) and it was wrong of her to say that its "supposed to be guys getting stuff for girls" because thats not true just because we get more emotional about things like valentines doesnt mean that deep inside you guys are hoping to get something from that special girl. Well I wish you the best and maybe you should talk to her about this if she really loves you she either has already something planned for you or will try to make it up to you and if she doesnt and sticks with that whole girls get thing but not guys then maybe she might not care about you as much as you do about her and you might need to find someone who does care. Sorry about your Valentines hope you have a better one next year

You have a right to be mad but it does sound like she is an old fashioned girl. All of my aunts feel Valentine's Day is when the guy buys the gal something and as far as they can remember it has pretty much always been that way. But I live in the midwest so I don't know if it is a midwest thing or like I mentioned an old fashioned notion. Make sure you find out what her real reason is for not getting you anything. The only time I didn't buy something for a boyfriend was when I knew I was letting him go but didn't want to do it on Valentine's Day.

Well you have all right!! Its the little things in life that makes it so great. To give someone your time and effort is the most valuable gift!! If she couldn't even pick you a flower or write something nice on a card she is not worth it!! There are a lot of lovely caring girls out there!!
After you told her how you feel and she didn't even soften she is not you kind sir!! I'm also old fashioned but V-day is specially there to get and give from both sides!!

In a sense I can relate to you being upset only because she made the comment that the guys were suppose to give. Overall I wouldn't suggest you break up or anything because if the love is there then you wouldn't want a box of candy and a card to be the cause of your downfall. Valentine's day is suppose to be about love not material things so just let it go this one time and forgive her and know that she has to mature in that area which is called emotions.

Well if she didnt get you nothing at all not even a card or nothing yeah i would be mad, cuz if she didnt she can even go n buy one at the dollar store. N about that only the boys are supposed to get something for the girls, dats not true. She could of at least cooked or something u get me? But idk maybe she has something planned for the weekend maybe. If you love her, its nothing, its just a day. love is stronger than gifts.
idk if this helped but dats what i think.

I didnt get anything either, and I got him something. I am pretty mad almost to the point of ordering myself some flowers or kicking him out one. You are not wrong to feel mad or unloved.

Well it ius not really the gift you give it is about the love and compassion for that person. But if the relationship is about the gifts and stuff then you are not meant for each another.
