Tomorrow is my birthday and my husband always forgets it and never gets me anything?

my husband and I both work at the same place but tomorrow he is working but i have Mondays off...do you think it%26#039;s a bad idea for me to send flowers to my place at work saying they are from an anonymous admirer...my husband will receive them and i am wondering whether he will claim they are from him...destroy them and not tell me or feel jealous and suspicious...this could be a good birthday present for me to have something exciting and interesting to look forward to...what do you all think....should I do it or not.

Tomorrow is my birthday and my husband always forgets it and never gets me anything?
You should say %26quot;baby,if you don%26#039;t start treating me like the princess I am,ur gonna miss me when I%26#039;m gone%26quot;! LOL ;)

Reply:My husband usually forgets my birthday to. He forgets everyones birthday except his own. It hurts but I try not let it bother me. I will though forget his this year as I want him to realize how selfish he is. Report It

Reply:No, I would spend the money towards getting myself a GREAT gift, like an expensive purse and a massage and new hair do. Then, I would go buy myself a great cake and then - I would go out with some girlfriends and just leave him a note saying %26quot;Cathy and Mary took me out for a birthday dinner - home late, don%26#039;t wait up%26quot;. Have a really fun time with your friend(s) and try not to worry about your husband. Personally I might forget about his birthday next time and see if it bothers him -- it may not... my husband%26#039;s family didn%26#039;t celebrate birthdays due to lack of money. Maybe that is why it isn%26#039;t important to him, he just doesn%26#039;t realize the importance to you?
Reply:I would do the honest thing If it is so important that you celebrate ask your husband to take you out on a birthday date tomorrow, .
Reply:Do women *actually* sit around thinking up this juvenile insecure crap? Honestly? And think that it will %26quot;work%26quot;? Wow.





If he can%26#039;t remember your birthday, he doesn%26#039;t give two donkey sh*ts about you.





But if you want to keep hanging around him, next year, 2 WEEKS (not 2 hours) before your birthday, walk up to him and say,%26quot;My birthday is in two weeks. If you EVER want to see me getting out of my panties again, you had better go to the mall right now and get me a present and a nice card or two. Then you had by god better remember what day to give it to me on. In the morning, before I have to drop stupid hints about it.%26quot;





It%26#039;s sick and you have to be his mommy so you will continue to lose respect for him but hey you%26#039;ll have your precious birthday present.
Reply:If you have to go thur all that, you don%26#039;t need to be with him. Why are you with someone that forgets your birthday anyway. That shows you how much he really loves you. Actions speak louder than words.
Reply:You shouldn%26#039;t play those kind of games. I mean it%26#039;s so childish. I would tell him that you don%26#039;t like it when he doesn%26#039;t acknowledge your birthday. Then when his rolls around I wouldn%26#039;t acknowledge it either. That way if he gets upset you%26#039;ll know that he%26#039;s selfish.
Reply:Why create a potentially disastrous situation? Find a more subtle way like saying one of your friends wished you a happy birthday or something. Oh, and before I forget, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Reply:My husband never remembered my birthday. I finally decided it wasn%26#039;t worth getting upset over. So on my birthday, I didn%26#039;t fix supper. I took a bubble bath, got dressed up, and when he came home and wanted to know why I was %26quot;all dolled up%26quot; I told him I was going out to celebrate my birthday. AND I DID! I had dinner at a nice place, took in a movie, spent an hour in a little coffee shop and relaxed. I discovered it was far less lonely to be by myself enjoying my birthday than being with someone who didn%26#039;t care. That was years ago and I haven%26#039;t been lonely since then. I am very good company for myself and I have lots of friends when I choose to be with someone. That%26#039;s better by far than sitting home where you%26#039;re only valued for the work you do.
Reply:No, you shouldn%26#039;t do that. How would you feel if he did it to you? I know having your birthday always forgotten sucks, my fiancee does the same thing, but it doesn%26#039;t mean that he loves you any less. With my fiancee I just remind him a month before hand, then I circle the date in the callender and remind him again about a week before. It sucks, but somehow he always forgets if I don%26#039;t remind him.
Reply:No, don%26#039;t do it! DO put a reminder on the fridge that tomorrow is your birthday.....HINT! HINT!
Reply:you are immature just remind him tat its your birthday.
Reply:I gave this as an answer to someone elses%26#039; question previously. Try this even though it may sound stupid. Take two dollars and hold them tight in your hand where your husband can%26#039;t see them. Tell your husband to sit down beside you, take a dollar out of his wallet, and place it in your empty hand. After he does this, tell him to hold out his hand and place the two dollars you are holding into his hand. When he asks you why you have done this, explain to him that if he makes an effort to show the romance and caring that you expect, he can receive double the amount of effort in return. Say it with a wink and a smile and he will understand. Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.
Reply:My husband forgets thongs too. I think it would be a waste of time to send the flowers. You need to think bigger. Go out and buy yourself something you would never buy (jewelry, a day at the spa) and tell him you are starting a new tradition. Tell him after the fact of course. I always feel better after I%26#039;ve spent a bunch of money on something I wouldn%26#039;t usually buy myself. The best is the day at the spa. Charge it so he see%26#039;s it on the statement when it comes. If he complains tell him if he ever stepped up to the plate and did things for you then you wouldn%26#039;t have to do them for yourself.


Happy Birthday, enjoy your day any way you want to.
Reply:No, that%26#039;s a stupid idea.





Do you have a real problem with him not remembering dates? Does he not remember other dates?





Rather than upsetting him, remind him that tomorrow is your birthday. Set up a time for a nice night out.
Reply:Might work but could backfire. Why not ask someone at work to help remind him. You could get someone at work to ask where you are today or for your home number as they want to take you out for lunch/drinks etc for your birthday. They could qualify the question first by asking what he plans to do for your bday. He will be reminded and have to answer in a non-confronational way what he plans to do for your bday.


What do you do for his bday? Did you remember his last bday? DOes he care about bdays and special occations?
Reply:That is a GREAT idea. I might have to try that with my wife for the heck of it. Regardless of the outcome, you should take it in stride. Really, that%26#039;s a great idea.





PS. I just read everyone else%26#039;s response and to me it just says that few people have a sense of humor. I think this is a great joke and if you two love one another then it will be fun. PLUS, I think you already know he%26#039;s gonna claim he sent them. LMAO





FYI, I never buy my wife anything for any occasion as I buy her stuff all the time anyway. Hell, she drives a $60,000 Yukon. What more does she NEED? Her, on the other hand, is like that one woman above, she%26#039;s obsessed with my birthday. In fact, I get a pre-birthday butt kissing, get my butt ckissed on my birthday and then, believe it or not, get a post-birthday butt kissing. And when I do what you are talking about here, I%26#039;ll bet she throws the flowers away so as not to make me think there%26#039;s even a chance that anyone else is trying to steal her from me. Then I%26#039;ll mess her head up and tell her I sent them and then she%26#039;ll apologize and kiss my butt for a week straight.





No, don%26#039;t play mind games....RRIIIIGGGGGHHTTT...........
Reply:That is a childish idea and will hurt YOU, not him. There%26#039;s bound to be a fight no matter what reaction he takes. Do you really want that on your birthday? Aren%26#039;t you upset enough that he never remembers? If I were you, I%26#039;d have an alternative plan. In his wallet I%26#039;d put a note: %26quot;It%26#039;s my birthday! I am at home getting ready for my birthday dinner. Meet me at ________ restaurant after work, and bring your credit card, honey. We are going to celebrate!%26quot; Then, make a reservation and join him for dinner. Some men just don%26#039;t remember occasions like others do...they need a little help. Happy birthday!
Reply:I certainly would be concerned if something that is important to you he has no regard for. No, you should not play manipulating games looking for a reaction. That is immature and childish. Remind him that it%26#039;s your birthday, if he forgets and doesn%26#039;t acknowledge that it%26#039;s important to you, then, I would definately seek counseling.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think you should. Please do not play any games. Respect the relationship. He%26#039;s not a perfect guy. Please know that he needs to be reminded about simple things. Not remembering does not he doesn%26#039;t care. You need to mention it to him. I know we women would love the idea for men to read our minds and do what we want, but they can%26#039;t.... Do magic. We have to give them hints. Like say, %26quot;hey, tomorrow is my birthday, have you decided what you%26#039;re gonna get me. I want a surprise%26quot;. I%26#039;m sure he%26#039;ll try.
Reply:whoa,


my husband is obsessed with my birthday.
