Today, it's my wedding anniversary; my husband forgot. My daughter gave me two beautiful long stem roses and said she would look after her sister while we went out to celebrate. My daughter is more romantic and thoughtful than my own husband. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it was our 12th anniversary. My husband only remembered because family members texted to wish us a happy anniversary. When he went out to the store to get groceries, he didn't even buy me flowers. He's also irritated that I "seem sad or something." FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out for dinner to a fancy Italian restaurant for our one year anniversary. After giving her some roses, freshly baked cookies, and a thoughtful poem I wrote for her, she started laughing and asked for her real gift. FML
Today, my fiancé forgot my birthday. I did however remember to tell him we were sending his mother flowers, for her birthday, which falls a week after mine. We've been together 10 years. I sent her flowers on my birthday. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My wife took me to my favorite restaurant for dinner. She made me pay for my birthday dinner, along with hers. She also got me a gift card to HER favorite store. FML
Today, I brought my girlfriend flowers. All she managed to do was to say, "It’s been a year since you brought me flowers." FML
Today, we had two-year wedding anniversary. A few months ago, I insisted on going to a therapist because my wife can only think and talk about our one-year kid. My present for her was a Spa day, flowers and chocolate. Her gift to me was a Lego set to build for our kid. FML
Today, I went all out for my husband on our anniversary. I planned meals, took him to a stage show, and got him a bottle of cologne he loves. He was moody, distant, and at one point crying. Why? He found out his ex-wife is getting married today and he couldn’t stop thinking about her. FML
Today, my boyfriend treated me to a surprise romantic dinner, got me a huge balloon bouquet, a dozen roses, and a beautiful card for my birthday. Too bad it's his ex's birthday and not mine. FML
Today, my husband tried to be romantic by throwing me in a bed laid with roses. Too bad he forgot to remove the thorns first. FML
Today, my boyfriend came over to celebrate our anniversary. He had a card written in crayon with my name spelled wrong, and a basket I had seen his mother throw in the trash filled with flower petals ripped from my mom's garden. Our anniversary was 3 days ago. FML

This is the future of "It's really windy out" guy. You shouldn't have kept pushing for marriage! Anyway, at least the world didn't end, so that's all good.

Since he's forgetful you should remind him by telling him you are going out with the daughter who remembered your anniversary and leaving him home to watch the little one.

"What day is yesterday?" Good husband "OMG! I forgot it!" Normal husband "Yesterday? rainy day?" beatles band "All my troubles seemed far away."

So do some women try to "test" their husbands or boyfriends? My wife and I have been married almost 11 years and in so glad I don't have to deal with that crap! We talk about anniversaries and birthdays weeks prior. If I am going to surprise her with something I just change the subject. Grow up girls. Stop testing your spouse and just talk about it!!!!

It's not all of us! I'm a girl and I totally agree with you! If I forgot a date like that I'd feel shit about it too so rather than give you're boyfriend/husband hell for it we should just remind him :) "hey babe, excited for our anniversary next week? I can't wait! Fancy doing anything special?" BAM everyone's happy ^_^

Your daughter hasn't become bored with the infrequent, routine, robotic sex and frustrated with the lame excuses to avoid it. She does benefit from your cooking and cleaning services, so it's no wonder she has a high opinion of you.

Sorry OP, I assume you'll make this year memorable enough he won't forget again. Perhaps there's a reason for the oversight, although its not an excuse there could be a cause. FYL anyway OP.

At least you can say that you raised a thoughtful kid. Men are stupid.
