I would be hurt too 'GrannyO'.

It's a small outward sign to you and the rest of the world and is neither expensive or time consuming to do.

Does he know you were hurt last year? Or are you thinking he knows? Because if you are , then you need to actually say the words out loud to him. Men can be as thick as mince in this area of communication.

That way , if you don't get a card next year , there is no excuse big enough to get him out the hole he will have dug himself smile .

Now , go and buy yourself some gorgeous to cheer yourself up and make sure he's footing the bill wink

Not unreasonable if you find it hurtful especially if OH knows you hold great store by it. If he shows you he values your marriage in other ways then I think some people just don't find 'cards' important.
Personally DH and I wish each other a Happy Anniversary but don't exchange cards usually, we will have a trip out or a short break somewhere nice each year for our Anniversary or just a nice meal out.

DH didn't bother with a card again this year, said he 'forgot'. Am I being unreasonable in feeling hurt that it means so little to him? I at least bought him a card.sad
