What is the most appropiate way to express displeasure about not receiving Valentine Day gift?

My boyfriend lives in Miami and we have been in a relationship for more than 4 years. He is an over the road truck driver and we met when he came to make his weekly delivery in my home town. A week before Valentine's Day I sent him a text telling him that Valentine's Day was a week away and that I wanted flowers and candy for Valentine's Day. Right now he is unemployed and we no longer see each other weekly. We do visit each other regularly and talk nearly every day on the phone. I in the past 4 years have asked him for nothing except a thousand dollars and he did oblige. Valentine's Day I asked him if he sent me flowers and candy via text and he responded back by saying that he would bring them to me when we next met again. I got very angry and responded telling him that I could not believe him and that I was upset not because of the flowers and candy...I was/am upset because I asked him for something which I never do and he did not oblige. Whenever he has asked me for something I have obliged even if it meant spending money to wire him money. I am very hurt and do not really know if he understands. I talked to him and cried...he listened and said very little. He did send a text telling me that he was sorry and did not want me to cry and that he loved me. When I talked to him he told me that he had just tried to contact my son who lives here in the same town as I do because he wanted him to pick up flowers for me. He could not reach my son...I was still not satisfied with him trying to call my son. I felt that he should have obliged within the week that I notified him of what I wanted. I break my neck to do things for him!
