Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : I've been dating my boyfriend for only 3 and a half months. He gave me a really sweet and thoughtful Christmas present that overwhelmed me because we had been dating less than 2 months (and only actually met a few weeks before officially dating). So I was worried about Valentine's Day and that he would go all out again so last week I tried to shut down anything big. I said I didn't want to make a big deal of Valentine's and I didn't want anything. But I meant like I didn't want jewelry or a giant teddy bear. I should know that guys take things very literally. 

I can't say I wasn't expecting anything, because I kind of was. Even after saying I didn't want anything. He came over and said "I did get you something small" with a big smile and he pulls out a chocolate crunch bar... 

I know that I'm an idiot for saying I didn't want anything but he didn't even get me a card. I don't know why I thought he would surprise me with at least flowers! I got him a 6 pack of beer from different breweries and cheezits and a card with a dog on it that looked just like his dog! I don't think I did that much but it sucked that I put some effort in and he picked me up a 99 cent candy bar from a gas station.. I sound ungrateful, but it's a candy bar. That I could have bought myself. I just figured flowers or a bottle of wine or a card were kind of standard for Valentine's Day. 

Am I the asshole for expecting anything? 

TL;DR I told my boyfriend I didn't want to make a big deal of Valentine's Day and when he showed up with a chocolate crunch bar for me I got annoyed.
