Simon, (If you don't mind me calling you that) If he feels neglected because you got him a gift, I'm sorry, but he's probably not right for someone as sweet and smart as you are. It's the thought that counts, and you should do what you see fit.

You're not a horrible girlfriend for not giving a gift. Likewise giving gifts isn't a bad thing. Everyone is different and what we appreciate in life is different. Some people show their love & affection by giving gifts, others prefer other ways.

For Simon -
Could you do something like cook a meal for him or spend time with him? Making memories is a pretty great gift. Alternatively, make something like a scrapbook page or photo album or something. I recently gave my partner a book of letters that I wrote to him when I couldn't get in touch (i.e. he was asleep and I had something to share with him, I'd write him a letter). He really liked it and reads a letter whenever he misses me. Not sure if that helps but something like that might?

If he likes music - maybe a playlist of songs that remind you of the two of you or a photo thing with music he likes in the background?

No no, I mean I don't want him to feel neglected if I didn't get him a gift. He's a sentimental sort of guy and would at least want Valentine's Day acknowledged. Plus I need to be extra nice to him since I turned down his proposal back not this past Christmas but the one before.

And Simon is fine :) Most people here and on discord call me that. Cass/Cassidy works too...but surely Simon is easier to remember

Be kind to one another. (*iNPC is Miles Thatcher)

I'll use Cass if we're ooc. Anyways though, you also shouldn't have to feel like you need to be extra nice to him! You turned him down because you didn't think it was right, correct?

I like the playlist idea! I could probably come up with quite a lot.

OOC - a girl

And I turned him down because I was 19 at the time and just wasn't ready for all that. I figure he was only asking because he was moving and wanting me to come but I wanted to finish college. We actually broke up for a short while but once he wasn't so hurt and ready to listen, I think he understands now that I adore him, love him, can see myself there some day but just not yet

EDIT: but enough of my drama, haha

Well, that's also it; it was for your own reasons. Some could argue you were being selfish, but I personally don't think so; You wanted to finish college and that was extremely respectable. And hey, my parents aren't even married yet, so if you aren't ready yet, it's up to you whether you're in that position or not, not him. He sounds like a really nice guy, from what you've been saying, but you need to be nicer to yourself.

Yea, we're doing pretty good now :)

Well, that's always good to hear. Just remember to trust yourself and your gut, and that you're the most important thing you should worry about.
