To expect DH to remember?

My DM died a year ago today. It was very sudden and the worst 48 hours of my life.

DH hasn't remembered. He was very cheery with me this morning, making plans for this evening etc.

Even my work colleagues remembered despite the fact I haven't mentioned it to anyone. Is it really too much to at least expect an acknowledgment of how shit I feel from my DH?

I'm probably just being over sensitive but it's really upset me.

Don't be so hard on yourself Princess. Today was always going to be tough for you and grief can make you act in strange ways, even years after the terrible event occurred. A first anniversary is never nice though. Just remember to remind him ahead of the anniversary in future if possible so you're not left churned up inside waiting for him to remember on the day. That's just causing extra stress for yourself that you can do without. I hope the rest of your day goes as well as can be expected and sorry again for your loss Flowers

Good idea Princess no one wants a row.

Tell him and let him look after you he will probably want to.

Anniversaries are hard work, but it only hurts because you loved them and love is always worth it.Flowers
