To be pissed off that dh is out on our 10th anniversary

I'm really sad and upset that dh is out with ex-work colleagues tonight when its our 10th wedding anniversary today.

I'm not one of those people who gets annoyed if dh goes out but he told me yesterday that he's out for some guy's birthday. When I asked who, he said he couldn't remember his name but he's a colleagues friends and has always turned up to dh's do!
When I said that I'm sure he'd understand that it was his an anniversary and he wouldn't be able to make it, dh replied that it was an awkward situation as the guy changed the date to fit in with dh. When he suggested 'Next Friday, then?' dh said he said yes without realising the date.

Dh has promised to stay out for only a short time, but he is going into central London and will take him about 40mins to get there from work and about an hour or so to get back home.

I'm so and [upset]

When he said 'Happy Anniversary' this morning, I acted very childishly and said 'yeah whatever' and just got back on with whatever I was doing. So he's gone to work annoyed too and will probably prefer to be out tonight instead of home!

when i say ask what he would like to plan - i mean plan something together that you would both enjoy, even if it s a DVD and pizza - actually planning to do it, and doing the planning togteher will probably make you both feel better

I agree with the email (not text!) saying that you are sorry that you and he argued this morning, that you were disappointed as you were looking forward to spending your anniversary with him. Suggest that you go out for a nice meal on Saturday, perhaps a high tea with the kids so as to celebrate not only your marriage but your lovely family.
