Search Results: show up with a flower

So I'm 17, and pretty much all of my friends and myself have managed to get boyfriends at the same time. And so we do that "girly" thing where we sit around and talk about our boyfriends, show screen shots of cute things they said in text, and what not.

Now my friends are all about that stuff. They LOVE when their boyfriends write paragraphs about them, or get them flowers or whatever else.

I on the other hand, do NOT. It makes me uncomfortable honestly. And I'm also not a romantic myself, so honestly I could care less if my boyfriend sends me a paragraph about why he likes me. I'd just sit there like "lol, cool."

Luckily for me, my boyfriend is also not a romantic. In fact, the other day he actually APOLOGIZED to me for not being romantic enough, and I was actually confused because that's something that I like about him.

And then while my friends are hanging all over their boyfriends, sitting on their laps, and giving exsessive kisses, me and my boyfriend will hug each other in greeting and SOMETIMES we'll give each other a little peck or something, but then after that we're both kind of like "alright, now get off I need my space." We don't say that, but it's sort of a silent agreement.

And it works for us though, we've been dating several months and not had a single argument, which I know isn't a lot, but it's something.

However the reason I ask is because APPARENTLY if you didn't know we were dating, then you just wouldn't know. And like, my boyfriend is fairly attractive, so I've seen girls just walk up to him right in front of me and think we're just friends and start flirting with him, and then depending on my mood I'll either say nothing about it and let him handle himself, or I'll make a big joke of the whole situation and tell the girl all about how he was just commenting on her butt. (he never does, but we both have a good laugh about stuff like that later).

And then there's my friends who also make comments, and they always seem to hint that my boyfriend might not really care about me because of how we act around each other, and I've even been accussed of using him because he does come from a fairly wealthy family.

ANYWAY, DOES anyone else just get extremely uncomfortable when it comes to romantic things?

So my boyfriend and I have been together for almost 3 years now. He tells me he loves me often and will tell me not to leave him, but the past year or so things have been seriously declining and he just doesn't really put much effort into the relationship anymore. He does have a lot of issues going on at home and is dealing with depression but it is seriously running into our relationship and he doesn't feel like doing anything to work on his problems. And if I ever tell him that something he does bothers me, he pretty much ignores what I say and doesn't do anything to change it, and I'm not bothered by insignificant things.. Then yesterday was my birthday and he didn't show up to my house until 4 o clock and he did nothing special to make me feel important. He sent me a pretty basic happy birthday text in the morning but didn't give me a card, flowers, a present, nothing at all. The weird thing is he asked me about a week ago when we were doing presents and I said on the day of my birthday but then it came and he did nothing. I'm just tired of feeling insignificant to him and like I don't matter, especially when I put so much effort into doing nice things for him and trying to make him happy. Should I just cut my losses and break up with him?
