So, it's my birthday today, and my nose is feeling very out of joint as I feel DH has barely acknowledged the day. He managed a card this morning - fished out of a drawer full of emergency cards we keep upstairs, and, to be fair, he wants to buy me a specific (expensive) present that I've been intending to get for a while, but haven't had time to look for it properly.
But TBH it's not about presents - I wouldn't care if he had just bought me a book or a bunch of flowers. What I really want from him is some affection - a nice cuddle in bed, an offer to get DD up so I can have a few minutes more in bed, a genuine interest in the question of what I might have been up to today. I just feel really flat - my family and my best friend have bothered to ring me to wish me happy birthday and have a chat, but I feel like I'm not getting anything from him at all (and again, I'm not talking presents here...) Right now he's upstairs listening to music or something while I watch the news down here. I feel miserable.
I also feel a bit pathetic - seems a bit childish to really care about birthdays. Isn't it just another day?
So, hit me with it. Am I being unreasonable?!
