So basically, my boyfriend and I have been together almost a year and have been living together. It is my first birthday where we have actually been together, and I have been very excited for the last week just to be able to relax and at least spend time with him.
So my day started out generally early. I am a light sleeper and the vibrations from my phone woke me up so I started my day around 6am and just chilled out in bed. He woke up a few hours later and completely ignored me repeatedly trying to talk to him/ ask him hows hes feeling, etc. I finally dropped it and decided to get up and go on the computer.
Another hour goes by and he finally comes in and tells me happy birthday. That made me really happy that he at least remembered so I asked him if he had anything planned. He basically told me he didnt plan anything and didnt think to get me anything either. That kind of upset me but I asked him if he could go grab us some breakfast or something (I even offered to pay) and he proceeds to get mad at me and starts yelling because he didn't feel like driving. At this point I started feeling sad so I went back on my computer and then he followed me into the room and started nitpicking at me about all the stuff that he needs me to clean around our apartment - all of which was not urgent and could wait until tomorrow (or he could have just done). At that point I got upset and told him all I want for my birthday is just to leave me alone...
The day isnt over yet and I know I was probably being oversensitive but I feel like I really didn't expect much to begin with... we're halfway through the day and I just feel like my special day is just an afterthought to him. I personally feel your birthday is supposed to be your special day celebrating your existence and relationships with others. The fact that he didn't do ANYTHING makes me feel like he just doesn't care.
Am I just being a brat and expecting too much or is it valid to be upset?
tl;dr: Halfway through birthday so far. Boyfriend did not get or plan anything. Our conversations so far have just been us bickering so I asked him to leave me alone.
