Search Results: valentines gift for him

First of all, I don’t like the term “nice guy” but don’t know another universal term people would get. I guess White Knight works too.. Basically a guy that does favors for a woman in the hopes that she’ll either have sex or a relationship with him (even after she’s already rejected him).

I met this guy through work (I’m at the reception desk and he’s a vendor that visits regularly). He and I got to talking and had a lot in common... we just hit it off. So I thought we could be friends. Pretty soon we were texting back and forth and he eventually asked me out. I told him I wanted to be friends only, because I wasn’t looking for a relationship and didn’t see him in “that way” anyway. It was a vey clear rejection, which he kindly accepted and agreed to be friends.

Well, I still see him twice a week and he always kind of insists on having a conversation, even if I’m busy. I like him and all, but it’s frustrating because he’ll just stand there and talk to me and since I’m in a service role I have to be nice. A few times he’s texted me and when I don’t respond quickly, he’ll apologize for bothering me.

he's given me gifts, including showing up to my work on his day off (which happened to be Valentine’s Day) and giving me pain meds for the headache I told him I had. For Christmas, he gave me a bobble head doll. And a bracelet with lyrics to my favorite song.

But my coworker had a fundraiser and was raising money, so he showed up to donate to her so maybe he’s just a genuinely nice guy and not a “nice guy” (see, that’s why I hate the term, such confusion).

what do you think?

I mean, some times for valentines day I would get my husband a hand made gift or some kind of romantic card with his favorite chocolates but I don't know... it doesn't seem like he cares that much for that kind of stuff. He just buys himself his favorite video games... so I don't know. do you men care?

I dated a guy for 2 years and then I found out he had been cheating on me throughout the entire duration of our relationship. I left him in May and then I met a guy in July. I did not expect to be in a relationship so soon after such a devestating breakup.

My current guy is really sweet, loyal and House husband material, but he’s not romantic in any way. I have spoken to him and I’ve told him that I really appreciate all the little things he does such as my ironing, the cooking, cleaning etc but I wish he could be a little bit romantic once in a while. He doesn’t agree with my idea of romance, he thinks that gifting flowers, chocolates, fancy dinners are things that what couples in failing marriages do and there is no trace of me on his socia media. I hate to be the person who keeps tally but I think I’ve been very romantic; I managed to get hold of a rare copy of a book he’s been searching for years, I surprised him with concert tickets for a band he really wants to see and I bought him a pair of £200 earphones he has been eyeing up for months. Valentine’s Day is a silly commercial holiday but I was hoping for at least something but I got nothing! nada!

He lives just over an hour away via train, I travel every week/every couple of weeks to see him but all we ever do is stay at home with his mum, watch tv and occasionally go to the pub next door with his mum. I help babysit his niece and he sometimes leaves me at his home alone so he can go kickboxing for a couple of hours. I’ve been going through depression, I’ve only opened up to him once and he gossiped about my business to his mum so I haven’t been able to trust him with any other secrets.

Despite all of that I still really like him but a part of me feels like we’ve hit dead end because he’s not romantic. Should I dump him? Am I shallow for wanting gifts and fancy dinners once I a while?
