There are certain qualities you want your lover to have and mine just doesn’t have them, I’m 16(f) and he’s 16(m) we’ve been together for 2 years (well 2 in 5 days) and I’m expecting this to be a big thing where we think about each other and what we want, I don’t want this to just be another hang out, we both have jobs and because he works all the time I have to clear my schedule for him- I don’t mind at all but …yeah… and I’m still underage and I have to visit my dad every other week so I’m probably working maybe 2-3 days a week, which he has 2 off days and the works every other day, also he makes 10 sum an hour and I make 7.2, I’m expecting a gift or something that is thoughtful, maybe expensive, but it really doesn’t have to be, maybe some picked flowers and a new canvas (I like to paint) I had a books a million card to I bought him this manga he’s been obsessed with, I’m going the 360 kisses where you kiss paper and put it in a jar, I’m painting him something, I’m gonna get him a poster, get him a psn card, write him a note, cook a meal for him and hopefully not try to get mad when we pick his god awful movies or play any board games…I’m competitive. Anyways, he doesn’t think like me… maybe I’ll get a really crappy blanket, I’ll love it but it prolly won’t get used (he got me a blanket for my birthday and it was from Walmart 9.37 on clearance and everything gets stuck to it) or maybe some nasty chocolate that was from the dollar store…I got that for v-day… ig he forgot I don’t like milk chocolate (I tried to eat it but it was so bad) but idk if I’m being to dramatic, I wanna just go ahead and set myself up for the most unromantic day ever… but I also really wanna hope he’s actually gonna try and be very romantic… I just need to know if I’m wrong about feeling this way and expecting something cheesy when my bf is the exact opposite.
TL;RD
Basically I want my bf to think about what to actually get me for our anniversary and I want him to put effort into it, I just want a romantic day

You need to tell him you want your anniversary to be romantic with flowers and gifts. You know he’s bad at gift giving (some people are!) so you’ll have to give him suggestions. Something like “I don’t need it to be expensive—some dark chocolate and flowers would be fine” or a similar hint. Tell him it’s important to you, otherwise he won’t know.
And hey, my parents forgot their 19th wedding anniversary entirely, so even if the day isn’t perfect, that doesn’t mean the relationship won’t work.
