I'm feeling so low. My birthday is two days. It's a fairly significant one. Husband has done nothing. Nothing at all. Almost crying as I write this. I've arranged my own cake. He hasn't even bothered to buy a card. My children will be sad as one of them keeps saying she wants to give me my card. I tried on a pair of shoes a couple of weeks back with him but they weren't quite right and tonight he said oh well I was going to buy those shoes. I mentioned an artwork that is really close to his work and that we've walked past a few times. Nope. Hasn't even arranged any flowers. Basically waiting for me to initiate my own birthday. No wonder I feel bloody stressed. I don't want much. Even just a card and a pot plant for ffs from my dd. he doesn't care. I feel so sad. Unloved. I always, always secretly hope he might have arranged something, and then feel angry and upset when I have to drop hints/send links etc cos he's to emotionally lazy (he does other things eg house chores) to care.

Surely he should put some effort in for this?
