You did the right thing. True that he did not reciprocate. And yes, that hurt you I know. I did the same thing for my W. I got her a present for her birthday. She did not return the action. I didn't expect it either. I didn't get her one to get one back. I just did it because I love her and it was the right thing to do.

That being said, I am with you as far as undecided about whether or not I will get her something for Christmas. I probably will now that I will be spending it with her and her family. But I don't expect anything in return.

If you get your H something, also do not expect it to be reciprocated. If you choose to do it, do it only because it is something you wanted to do with no expectations.
