Hubby forgot it was our anniversary (7yr).I had to (not so gently) remind him when he began talking about a lads night out! He then booked dinner at a lovely restaurant (v posh 5)but I was so cross told him to cancel. We've agreed now to go to another restaurant (not posh!).Would prefer to keep 5 for a very special occasion and not when i'm getting over this. :-( He can't understand why I was so angry over it!! AIBU to be angry over it? I think I'm not!!

Dolanette, what did you do to mark the date

Dolanette seems to be avoiding the question of 'what did you do for your husband..?' Perhaps anniversaries are one sided in their household..

I gave him a present and a card. I got same back and we also went for dinner. Thats it! I think marriage is full of ups and downs and the whole pre-dinner experience was probably one of the down moments. Thanks to all those who gave advice and support.

yabu

yes i would be upset if dh forgot our anniversary (so far he hasnt), but if he did i would like to think he would try to appoligize like your dh did and book a nice resturant

but agree with the poster who said that wa are joint things, so why cant you say to him a week or 2 before, shall we go out for dinner for our wa/shall i book a table for next week etc?

some years i say , i have booked a table for next week, other years dh says where would i like to go etc

[Sigh] over 5* restaurant

I forgot it was our 7yr anniversary today until dh mentioned it.

My gift to him is a vasectomy! Mw mentioned that the GP will want to discuss contraception at the 6wk check.
