Husband Forgot My Birthday

Actually I am a man and a son, but i always keep forgeting my moms bithday. Its a shame and I should probably finally remember. I think you should however forgive your husband.

Something similar happened to me. My ex-gf forgot our anniversary. I was actually planning to do that as a joke but it turned out she actually forgot it. I was so mad at the time I went to a stripclub with friends.

Happy Birthday!!! I hope you are having a great day! In my family , a birthday is the one day where you get to do what You want to do! If my guy forgot my birthday , I would be Really hurt. But then again I would remind him about a week ahead. I hope you have plans to do what you Want to do.Enjoy!

The first year me & my first hubby were married, he "ignored" my birthday opting to celebrate it 4 days later. Then when he told me that we weren't celebrating my birthday until Saturday, I asked him if he thought he would choke by saying "happy birthday" on my actual birthday. He told me to "just get over it". So, when his birthday came around, I ignored it completely. The next year he remembered my birthday!!!

Ahh sorry to hear that. Us men are terrible with dates. I am sure he will make it up to you

It is normal for a spouse to forget his or her partner birthday. It is not strange. Sometimes, it is you that will even forget your birthday when it comes up. I think most people are too preoccupied with their personal daily challenges and it makes them to forget important dates. Happy birthday.

I am sorry that happened to you. If you truly are over it, I commend you for your maturity. Hopefully he will be motivated to make it up to you.

I know it has happened to me. I do not remember the exact circumstances, so I must be really "over it". I did learn either to a) have no expectations or b) if I want to have expectations then I should help make sure they are fulfilled by dropping appropriate reminders enough in advance that no one can possibly forget.

when we were engaged, my now hubby forgot my birthday. he was refereeing a soccer tournament and totally forgot it was my birthday! i guess i forgave him because we have been married 23 years!

I'm really sorry to hear about that. That really must not be pleasant. I am lucky, as so farm my husband hasn't forgot my birthday, and I hope he never does. Well, I hope he does remember. And happy birthday by the way!

I'm so sorry dear. I had a stupid ex boyfriend that did that. Well, he's an ex :D I'm sure he had something that was stressing or really consuming him. You are married for a reason, he loves and adores you, I think in a long time relationship, that could happen. Please, talk to him to see what happened. But that wasn't nice at all, so sorry.

This has happened to me but I am over it. I don't know if people truly forget or what but when it happens it is very upsetting. Sorry and Happy Birthday.

Belated Happy Birthday from me. Sorry your hubby forgot but apparently you guys are doing something right to be together for 24 years. That's what really counts, don't you think?Congrats

that's not good, its one of the last thing a man don't want to or should not forget, it means a lot for women. even for men its hurt when your girl do not remember your birthday. and sometimes that happen you have to forget an forgive.

I'm happy it has not happened to me. My husband and I have been married for 26 years but he remained still ever thoughtful and never has ever forgotten any of my birthdays. I could even forget it but not him. He has always been thoughtfully thinking of my birthday. He would start preparing, reminding me and asking me what I want to do on my birthday as early as my birthday month starts. It is really nice to have a husband like mine and I thank God for him. Nevertheless, if your husband is not as thoughtful as mine, you should not feel bad because for sure he has another way of making you feel he loves you despite being forgetful of your special day. Anyway, it is not only through remembering birthdays that a husband can show his love for his wife. Lest I forget, may I greet you a very happy birthday!

It can be very frustrating when your husband forgets your birthday. your self esteem can jump right out the window. it can make you feel like your spouse doesn't care about you or love when it isn't true. it just hurts that a special day is forgotten by someone so important in your life. Don't let it get you down.\

Oh sorry..after those long years should remember i think. Well hopefully he will make something special now as he remembers again. Good luck and Happy-Bday!

For me yes but try to understand it because they forgot your birthday but they never forgot your weeding anniversary.

Hi devideddi, You shouldn't be hurted. The main reason is most hubbys forget it as days pass, my uncle who is a doctor says men with family burdens and works, tends to forget important occassions. Whereas women can remember them even at 80s so sharp. This is a fact. Hope you have a great birthday! Cheers!

Yes, it has happened and I fix the situation by simply beginning to leave hints the week prior to my birthday. It's just a sad fact I accept.
