No, he doesn't really sound good at all. Best of luck, OP.

nayrt

Not everyone's good at giving verbal praise (and not everyone values it the same way) - he might be one of those people who prefers to show affection through doing nice things for the OP or whatever, thinking that it's a better indicator of love than "mere talk".

My husband is less verbally effusive than I am, but he's an absolute sweetie when it comes to showing rather than saying. I can live with that :-)

OP makes it clear she would appreciate detailed compliments and said her boyfriend doesn't seem to understand that. OP also said that after they'd agreed to exchange Valentine's Day presents, he forgot. A lot of people aren't good at expressing themselves verbally, but you know what? That's a learned skill. Nobody's born with it. If verbal expressions of love mean a lot to your partner and you're bad at it, that seems like a really good reason to pick up this skill.

I get that not everyone expresses affection in the same way and it's fine as long as there's reciprocation, but I'm not seeing much of that in this situation.
