Does your DP/H/W know your birth date ?

[HurtsLikeABitch]

Just that really- been with DP for 3 years & he never remembers when I was born!
He has to fill out lots of forms for travel etc - today he went through 4 different years before I had to tell him. Even a yearly annual membership card has the wrong date on it.

Is he just a lazy bastard?

Yeah sounds lazy
Does this mean he also forgets your birthday?

I don’t let him forget it although he hasn’t actually bought me a birthday present- we go out & he buys whatever I show an interest in IYSWIM.
Today when he was filling in some travel info & struggled I said “ you don’t actually remember how old I am do you ?”
Obviously his reply was ‘ you should take it as a compliment I thinking’s you’re younger “ !

Yes my dh knows when my birthday is and yes knows my birth date

I can’t after 3 years yours can’t remember, like how can he not know? It’s been 3 years

Yes but he had to repeat it a lot to immigration when we first married.

Dh and I are both born in the same year which helps. He knows the date too but it's up on the calendar anyway

I should hope so - it's the same as his.

Mine does. Now. It must have taken him 15 years to get the hang of it though.

Just don't ask him our anniversary date, not even the year.

In fairness, he doesn't remember his brother's or his best friend's birthdays either.

Date yes but suspect he'd have to think about the year, although I may be wrong (married 17 years!)

He did manage to get my place of birth wrong when he went to register DS's birth though!

yes, just about, but he's pretty rubbish at that kind of thing. I very much doubt he knows when are wedding anniversary is, apart from the month!

Given that he's pretty stellar at just about everything else I don't let it bother me.

and we've been together 17 years.

We are same year as well so makes it easier but still.... it's pretty crap isn't it?

We were born in the same year so I’d be pretty shocked if he didn’t.

Yes of course.

Unless someone has a genuine problem remembering numbers, it’s just laziness. Even then, they should find a mnemonic or rhyme or something to help them learn such basic information about their significant other, and their children too.

Yes but he had to repeat it a lot to immigration when we first married.

Me too

He had the actual day down very quickly. I can thank immigration for the year.

Is he thoughtless normally?

My dad doesn't even remember my birth date. I'm an only child

Just asked and he does.

My DP can never remember DDs' birthdays..... I find that odd. I doubt he knows my birth year.

DH is pretty usefulness sometimes but still remembers my date of birth. My DF however will swear blind that its the month before (which is my mum's birthday).

I occasionally get DH’s day of the month mixed up. His birthday is the 15th of one month and our wedding anniversary is the 16th of another. I occasionally get them mixed up.

Yes but he's only 14 days older than me, which probably helps.

DH, on the other hand, frequently forgets our eldest children’s ages.

Yes he does. It is the day after our wedding anniversary so no excuses!

Yes, he knows all sorts of useful things like my date of birth, NI number, etc.

Mine does. He will forget it when he stressed, but then he forgets his own birth date too.

Mine does, but he completely forgot about our anniversary this year. First time ever.
