That detail can say a lot, depending on the wider context of the relationship. Here are the main interpretations from both psychology and relationship dynamics:

1. Effort and Investment

• Small gestures like bringing flowers are symbolic acts of care.
• If he never does it (and not just rarely), it can indicate low effort or lack of prioritization.
• In neuroscience terms, when someone makes thoughtful gestures, your brain releases oxytocin (bonding hormone). Without those gestures, the bond may feel one-sided.

2. Emotional Attunement

• Some men genuinely don’t think about gestures unless it’s important to them personally.
• If he knows you’d appreciate flowers but still doesn’t bother, it suggests he’s not tuned in to your needs, or he’s dismissing them.

3. Symbol of Value

• Flowers are not about cost, but about the thought behind them.
• If he “can’t be bothered,” it might mean he doesn’t see the relationship as something that requires nurturing—or he assumes you’ll stay without effort.

4. Possible Explanations

• Practical/Neutral: He wasn’t raised to value small romantic gestures.
• Concerning: He may be emotionally unavailable, self-focused, or taking you for granted.
• Positive but Rare: Sometimes a man shows care in different ways (acts of service, quality time, etc.), not necessarily gifts.

👉 Bottom line:
If you’ve expressed that flowers (or small gestures) matter to you and he still never makes the effort, it’s a sign he’s either unwilling or unable to meet your emotional needs. That’s less about the flowers and more about respect, empathy, and willingness to invest
