So christmas is approaching and I am curious about how others would react if your SO didn't get you a gift for Christmas. I've been dating this guy for 3 months now, we have known each other for about a year though. Things are great and we are getting serious about each other. His whole family lives a plane ride away, so he will be spending Christmas with my daughter and I this year. I have made sure to get him some small things to open Christmas morning, not only because I wanted to, but also because I want him to get into the spirit of Christmas morning. It's means a lot to me but it doesn't really to him as his family have never ever given gifts. Even as he grew up, him and his brothers never got anything. In fact, his mom made sure they knew Santa was a myth. Their family did donate money to a charitable cause though. It's always been big to me, especially since I have a young daughter that will be celebrating too. We have talked about our Christmas customs and traditions, and he could care less about the gift giving. I have not received any sort of gift during our 3 months of dating, I have gotten him 2 small things, that made me think of him. I don't expect anything fancy, big or expensive but I'd like to think he would think of me for Christmas. I don't want to bring it up for fear of sounding selfish or materialistic, to me it's not about the gift itself, but to know I was thought of. Would I have the right to be upset if there wasn't a gift under the tree for me from him, or am I really being selfish?
