My boyfriend and I are currently in a 16hour time difference long distance relationship. Besides that, we have been together for almost two years and a year and a half of it has been spent physically together.
Today is my birthday and my boyfriend skyped me around 10pm my time to bring in the day with me. However from several little things that were said that Skype session (including him picking at one of my insecurities that he knows I'm insecure about) by the time it got to midnight, I was hoping for him to say some very sincere things to me; instead,8 got a generic happy birthday message from him. Besides that, he didn't get me anything, not even a piece of paper with how he feels written down on it for me. I started crying at this point and I could see he felt really bad and he even said "I can't believe I did this on your birthday" but still didn't apologize for anything.
It's almost 10 am my time right now and I won't be talking to him until 9 pm because of the time difference and a class he has to go to. We were supposed to watch a movie together tonight but while I was sleeping he told me he's going to hang out with a friend tomorrow so I don't think we'll have time for a movie.
what should I do about this? I want to enjoy the rest of my day but the thought of this will be in my head and everyone will be asking what'd he say to me or what he got and with either question I don't have a good answer.
