Do Men Really Forget their own Anniversaries? - My folks are having their 19th Anniversary! Whoo Hoo! lol I never heard my mother saying he forgets or didn't buy her anything, since he is 'still living' I think he is doing good remembering lol. She does say he needs to buy her more diamonds lol. I tell her your good if he buys you real diamond ear rings! I think my dad is a pretty good hubby to my mom. Do husbands tend to forget their Anniversaries what are the consequences? Do you get a gift or an Apology? Does he get a slap on the head or some good ol bed times?
