I am getting rather frustrated and discouraged about my marriage. The longer this goes on the less I am starting to feel about our relationship. Well it started when I forgot his birthday. Oh he was speaking to me the day before and the days leading up to his birthday and even part of day of his birthday; that is the part that I don't understand. All of a sudden he stops speaking to me not telling me anything as to why he has stopped talking to me; I assumed it was because I had forgot his birthday. I didn't forget it on purpose and I felt really bad about it; I even apologized and told him that I would make it up that weekend. Anyway the very next day I went out and bought a few things for him, including a card expressing how sorry I was that I forgot his birthday and for him to forgive me. Well I put the gift where he could see it with the card attached and he let it sit there for two whole days without looking at the gift or the card. I was so mad that I took the card and tore it up, i decided at that point that he didn't deserve my apology. A week later he asks me where the card went; I told him the truth I tore it up and threw it away thinking that he didn't want to make up and that the card didn't mean anything to him. He responded by saying "I don't care what the * you do". To go back a little I didn't forget his birthday on purpose. I work a 40 hr a week job and taking care of my grandmother too who is 97 by the way. My uncle and I had been trading off every other day to stay with her. So suffice it to say the days creep up on you so fast. I feel that my husband has now taken this to whole different level. I feel he is being mean and ridiculous about the whole thing. I don't want to talk to him until he apologizes.
