Men if u date someone who makes the same amount of money as u do u buy them less gifts?

i have been dating mark for 3 yrs now and get gifts on my bday and xmas only.i got flowers once a 2 cards in 3 yrs.now his exwife(who was a stay at home mom) and last gf(single mom with no money) got flowers monthly,boxes of cards,expensive gifts ect.now i don%26#039;t want expensive gifts but just wonder why he does not do for me as he did for them.Its not because he got burnt becuase they did not apprecite the gifts i know they did.and i allways give him little gifts/cards for no reason and never ask for anything in return.the only thing different between me and his ex%26#039;s is i have more money so does that mean i get less gifts/love letters?

Honey, this clearly bugs you. The only way out for you is to talk to him about it.





That probably sounds scary: %26quot;OMG! - he might get scared off and I lose my BF!%26quot;





You%26#039;ve known him 3 years so you should be able to be open and honest with him (especially if you have been %26#039;intimate%26#039;).





First, however - check yourself out: how do you KNOW how much he gave his ex-wife and his previous girlfriend as gifts, flowers, cards?





What I suggest is that you ask him whether or not he gave his ex the amount of stuff you think he did? and his previous girl? Then tell him that it seems he%26#039;s giving you less than he gave them - %26quot;What%26#039;s different?%26quot; is the line you might want to use.





Try to not make it about yourself - %26quot;What%26#039;s changed with HIM that he is acting differently now toward his significant other than he did in the past?%26quot;





There could be explanations that are not about you - for example, he may be afraid of making any committments so he is backing down on the amount of commitment-signs he gives out to ANYBODY. That%26#039;s not about you - it%26#039;s about him.





By the way, if I was over 25 and dating a girl for 3 yrs I would have made up my mind by then if this was a long-term thing or not.
Reply:thats not really nice, believe me i would be upset, but i would not know how to tell him.
