I want to get my boy friend a engraved knife for a gift but what knife should I get for him

Or

So which should I get him?

Me and my boyfriend has our 2nd year anniversary next weekend
This was our conversation today:

Me - so are we doing anything special next week?
Him - whats next week?
Me - sigh.. nevermind
Him - ohhh yeah i remember. Yeah we will do something. What do you wanna do?
Me - I don't know what do u wanna do?
Him - we can go have dinner together or I can cook at home
Me - what are you gonna cook? You can only cook chicken
Him - well ill learn something
Me - no I wanna go out. I bought an outfit anyway
Him - oh. What did u buy?
Me - you will see it on the day
Him - okay. Well i didn't buy new clothes. So im just gonna wear whatever I have. Are u getting me anything?
Me - maybe
Him - oh shit. I didn't buy u anything yet. What do u want?
Me - omg just surprise me for once! You always ask me what I want. I like surprises
Him - its not a big thing for me. I mean we been together for 2 years. you're gonna get over it next year and year after that , etc
Me - no Im not.
Him - okay. Well ill buy you a card
Me - really? Ok. you're so romantic *sarcasm*
Him - omg you girls demand so much.
Me - whatever

What the heck?
Im so disappointed about this
Am i right to be?
I wish he would be more romantic like planning something
E. g. buying me flowers or putting rose petals and a gift on the bed
Something like that
Ughhh 🤦‍♀️
It feels like he doesn't care about me 😔
Am I demanding too much?

So its our 2 year anniversary coming up
I've planned to get him things that he wants
He has told me few weeks ago that he's always wanted a bright lamp for his room because it gets really dark in his room when he turns his light off and wants something bright when he turns it off
So i bought him a lava lamp

And he bought a fragrance for his room few months ago but it ran out so his room smells plain now lol
So im deciding to go and buy him this nice strong home fragrance for his room
And maybe some new Bonds boxers for him too

So:
- lava lamp
- home fragrance
- BONDS boxers

Do you think theyre good or lame gifts?

I saw an Instagram post that a guy got one of these keychains for his girlfriend for their anniversary. I personally love the idea, but obviously I wouldn’t get it for myself. Is this too girly of a gift to give to my boyfriend? I can’t decide.

Or have you done that?

For example, your ex never got you any anniversary gifts. But they did so for their new partber.

Or you never did romantic things for your ex, but you did them for your new partner?

I never understood this. People try to justify things like that by saying things like "I don't have to buy gifts to show affection" but do a 180 in new relationship and do the exact same thing..

Why? Has it happened to you? Did it hurt?
