To tell DP I'm disappointed with my birthday

I've been with DP for a few years. We live together. For my birthday this year he made no effort. He took me to the cinema, mainly because there was something he wanted to do nearby. He also bought me a Nando's.

For his birthday a few months ago I made him a cake and did lots of nice things on the day, including taking him for dinner. As his gift I bought him £200 worth of lessons for something, which is what he wanted. How do I raise this without seeming ungrateful?

Time to use your words OP.

Some people are good at the whole birthday thing, others less so. If you're with a "less so" partner, just accept that you're going to have to play a role in getting what you want.
