Today, I was watching TV and started freaking out thinking I forgot to wish my boyfriend a happy anniversary. I wrote him a text and after I'd sent it, I realized that the date is mine and my ex's anniversary date. FML

oh that sucks. the similar thing happened on me 2 years ago. I was very exciting and telling my girl friend:" someone's gonna have her lovely birthday tomorrow!" she replied me a 'yes' and then broke up with me 2 days after that. Turned out that would be my ex's birthday the next day......

Your boyfriend shouldn't know your anniversary with your ex-boyfriend. If he does then either you and your ex didn't date very long and your boyfriend was a friend at the time [even then it'd still be weird] or you did something wrong and talk about your ex-boyfriend too much. Easy fix? Send him another text "Oh sorry hunny, I was thinking of "insert name of friend he doesn't know, preferably female" birthday.

He prolly didn't even notice. play it out right and you can have him thinking it Ur anniversary every six months or so. Gifts twice a year! yay you!
