Expecting more effort in long-term relationship

Boyfriend neglected me on special occasions, gave gifts to family instead

What I wish I knew
"Signs of lack of effort in relationships are often ignored until it's too late"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly with your partner about your needs and expectations"
