I actually told him to stick it up his arse but that was too impolite to put in the thread title.
This is the card that he’s apparently going to buy me today and give to me when he gets home from work at about 8-9pm.
Our (24th) wedding anniversary is today. He’s had the weekend off from Friday. He came down this morning to a beautifully wrapped present, thoughtfully written card and bar of his favourite expensive chocolate. I expected to come down to flowers and a card at least. He’d gone to work before I came down and I was just slightly devastated to come down to nothing. He just rang me to thank me for what I got him and got an earful.
I don’t want an afterthought late in the evening when the days almost over.
I put up with him being shit on birthdays, Mother’s Day and anniversaries for many years in our marriage but he’d started to put effort in the last few years or so. I’m bloody furious he couldn’t be bothered again, especially as he is extremely lucky to still be married to me (very hard 2 years in our relationship).
It’s not about him splashing the cash either. It’s the thought that counts IMO. That he actually gives a shit.

To have told DH to stick his anniversary card where the sun don’t shine?
