Well yesterday was a disappointment! Not a card, phone call or text from AC. Everything is fine with our relationship, they were probably busy with their own day. Busy social life / no children. They will no doubt give me a present when I see them next. But I value a card on the day, phone call on the day or would even be happy with a text on the day. So I ended up feeling very sad and tearful. So next year I plan to say no presents, I would rather you save your money. I will plan a nice day out for myself and not expect flowers to arrive or be waiting around for a text or call. If I receive a text or call fine but I don't want to be hurt in this way again. DH says I should let them know how upset I was but I don't want to only receive a card or text in future out of duty.
