Well, I’m sitting here waiting for my husband to remember our wedding anniversary. Every year he forgets unless I (or our daughter) have reminded him very recently. I am truly very low-key over birthdays, christmas etc but AIBU to be somewhat fed up with my husband’s lack of thought?
With me, it is truly ‘the thought that counts’ and I don’t want gifts or cards, just him to remember the day .
Just before Christmas he starts huffing and puffing about not knowing what to buy me for Christmas and what a problem it is. He usually gets me a Chocolate Orange or a box of After Eights. That’s fine, but I wish he wouldn’t complain about having to shop for them.
I arranged a family lunch on our Golden Wedding three years ago and he didn’t buy me a gift at all. Said he was ‘too busy’.
I know it’s not important in the scheme of things, but I’m just feeling a bit unappreciated.
