Better a goldigger, than an emotional retard that cant be bothered to set an alarm to remind him of his wife's birthday or anniversary of a marriage.

Its freaking 2010 you can have a service call and remind you, set a countdown on your computer you sit at everyday, have an email auto-sent to you a few days prior. There is no excuse when there are so many resources to help even the most forgetful.

Emotional retardation goes both ways.

Well this thread has opened my eyes for sure. My previous guesses aside, I can now imagine that my ex's numerous bar encounters went down much differently than I had first assumed. More like this, for example:

Lecherous also-married dude: "Hey good lookin..you out alone?"

My ex: "Yeah. My husband forgot my birthday. You wanna go play somewheres?"


:sarcasm:

Where did I infer that she should "sit and cry"?

No, you inferred that by buying something to at least enjoy in the wake of what Im sure is a horrible day having been forgotten yet again, is also being an emotional retard, so consequently I derive from that statement that being emotionally empathetic would be to bear the situation without consoling yourself with material things. In other words, sit and cry, be miserable etc.

Curious for advice/opinions.....what would you do if your spouse completely forgot both your birthday and 10 year wedding anniversary? These two dates are less than a week apart and it was about 2 months ago. Not unusual for hubby to forget, but here's what happened after a joking reminder the day of.....birthday cake was brought home about 2 weeks after my birthday. Normally in our family we give a card, a few gifts (nothing extravagant), and have a special dinner at home or at a restaurant. For hubby's birthday I usually also help our young son make a gift and card for daddy. After the friendly reminder, a few other instances came up to talk about the forgotten birthday, but still nothing happened as weeks passed. As for the anniversary, after I gave him his card that day, and he said "oops I forgot", nothing has happened on that front. No card or anything.....I was hoping for a bit more to celebrate 10 years.

And to top it all off.....his birthday is next month and he's already talking about what he wants for his birthday......

Any advice? It started out as a bit of a joke that he forgot again, but with all the times it's come up since then, now it's just sad.


This is where OP went wrong, letting it start out as a joke. That is all he needed, she gave him the impression that is was not too much of a big deal either. Knowing the entire time she was pissed wanting to throw hot grits on him. So of course the man says wow she took it lightly, cool, no biggy now got get me a beer and fix the steak. So she let it happen, her fault as well.

Funny tread... :lmao:

Rose this thread is very serious please refrain from laughing, I am trying to teach you ladies about Men and Our Sensitivity 101, books on sale soon, Rose a free signed copy for you. OP must be really bothered, two months latter and shes letting some steam out. She should have just gave him the butt punishment and let it be. She should not be trying to understand him. What is that saying men are from Mars and ladies are from Venus, or was that a movie?
