My boyfriend has never bought me flowers even after 5+ years of relationship...

It's more like a vent I guess than asking for advice...idk honestly but here it is...

We have been together since 2020, full 5 years till now have been long distance, with very occasionally meetings.

He has bought me many gifts: chocolates, cookies, earrings, rings, ordered food and snacks, even got me that mood change octopus. But till date he has never gotten me flowers. Once or twice he has plucked from roadside while walking and handed me, but never even bought one single flower.

He also says he regrets never buying me flowers, has said this 2-3 times, but still hasn't bought even once. Idk how to feel about this honestly. One side I'm really happy with him cause he is such loving and caring partner. The other side this thing really bothers me cause I have seen so many people get flowers, even from friends and no one has ever got them for me. Also people assume I must be getting flowers regularly, but in reality I have never got any.

We also have fights regarding regular occuring 2-3 topics only, rest everything is pretty sorted between us. He is at his home from past few days, so it's hard to even do calls, which has made us emotionally distant. Also I feel cause I'm on my periods right now, my hormones are just messing with me really bad. I need my partner but he is busy so my mind is just very much against him currently. I'm just sad I think cause of the mixture of 3-4 bad situations together. But also, why has he never got me flowers when he has gotten so many other more expensive gifts for me?!
