Uh…no he needs to return the favor! You spent so much money, how selfish of him to not spend the same or more on your birthday!

I agree that he’s being an inconsiderate jerk, but blocking him like that is pretty cruel. Try to have the conversation first about how hurtful that is to you first. If he listens, acknowledges, and seeks to change that behavior then it’s resolved. If he doesn’t listen OR you’ve already had that conversation and this IS the 2nd 3rd etc time I’d say you’re justified, but tell him what he did wrong first. It’s the human thing to do.

did you tell him that you wanted that? some people like to give gifts/do things for their partner without expecting something in return. it’s not fair to him if you never communicated wanting that outside of you doing it for him, which really isn’t communicating it at all.

could he have asked? yes, definitely. but it’s also on you to advocate for yourself, and he may have expected you to say something if you did want that since that’s YOUR want. communicating your needs is essential to a healthy relationship.
