And i don't feel cross. Just very very sad. He always does it and it's a bit of a joke( although i do find it hard to laugh inside. But this time, i think I've had enough.

Mine always forgets my birthday (we don't do anniversaries) - I thinkmen's heads are wired differently. Happy anniversary though, x
I'd be annoyed too.

It was ours last week, and all day Mr Boo reckoned on he didn't know what the "special day" was, and I was almost fizzing with rage by the time he got home.

He hadn't, and I felt a cow, lol.
Why is it that some people regard these things as important?

I wouldn't mind but we had a massive party on Saturday night to celebrate it!
I always rememebr anniversaries and give cards and (on big-number anniversaries) gifts. OH has never remembered yet. Maybe by the time our 40th comes round...
How can we be expected to remember anniversaries if you forget to remind us?
Awwww try not to be sad crisgal. Sherr is right, some men's minds are wired differently and need these things written on calendars, back of their hands and on post it notes on the dash board.

We tend to book a date with each other to go for a pub meal on our anniversary - otherwise either one of us are capable of forgetting! Please beleive me when I tell you he doesn't mean it and that he's not the only husband to have forgotten this week.
Is he a genuinely forgetful person or just a thoughtless wotsit? If he's got a lot on his mind, maybe he should be forgiven if he makes up for it. If not, then perhaps he deserves to be sacked. I'm lucky if mine remembers, it's when he puts from, instead of love, in the cards it gets me, although he puts it for his Mum as well. Happy Anniversary anyway, xxx
I told Mrs BT on our wedding day, 41 years ago, that I loved her and if I ever changed my mind I'd let her know!

I only wanted a nice card. How could be forget when the house is full of cards from all our friends and family?
I'm not good with dates either.I got married (3 times) in September so the exact date of my last one always escapes me
good grief, I wouldn't go sacking anyone for forgetting an anniversary. Not even 35 anniversaries. You'll have to do better than that if you want to be thrown out of my house.
^^^ LOL at mazie. Safer to forget than to remember the wrong date!
Well after 62 years of never having a card from my other half and a grunt if I mention it, it doesn't bother me anymore! Day to day life hasn't changed so the only thing offended is my ego. AlI I get is, "We never had birthday cards etc, they are a waste of money". Bet a lot of men agree Lol.
I agree - it is a bit mean crisgal. Mine doesn't get me flowers for Valentines Day, says they are a rip off, prices inflated for this day (they are!) but how sad is that? I try not to mind ........
Happy Anniversary

Joe - in regards to Wedding Anniversaries how can you forget you were there at the time were you not?
That's what I think maidup. Plus, he hasn't got a clue either. So after 33 years we don't bother. It's just another day.

But, each to their own if it matters, then it matters, so sorry you're upset crisgal xxx
Its ours on Friday (44 years) and I said very pointedly to Hubby in the town "Oh I have got to go to the card shop and get you a card" - to which he said "Oh .......er, yes, I haven't got you one either" ............. so he had better NOT forget!!
From a male perspective, that is cras, particularly when there is so much evidence about him, so you have my sympathy.

The flowers argument holds some water, Ann, but then there are other ways around - a plant, an IOU, a drawing and an ode (would be my way if I was to scrimp) - but then it doesn't have to be roses does it....it's the gesture that counts.

My apologies for my fellow testerone-filled elephants of men - certainly when it comes to a little pampering and wooing.
By the way Happy Anniversary crisgal x
