Well...there comes a point where so much money is constantly being spent on holidays, birthdays and anniversaries that it just gets out of hand. However, he should've acknowledged the day and bought you a card - or taken you to dinner. But here's another question - why do we always feel we have to get something? And why do we feel bad when we don't? Sometimes it's good to say "It's not about me," and just move on from whatever's bugging us. If you want to be truly happy in this life, you can't have it all.
Also, what did you get him for your anniversary? If you didn't do anything either, then you can't complain.

He's a guy! Give him a break.
If you mentioned it many times the week before the big day, then yes you should be pissed, but if you didn't say anything then it is both your fault. Him for forgetting and you for forgetting to "mention" it a couple of times (only if you didn't).
You have to realize that guys are simple creatures. They can't be expected to know every single date. If you want them to know what you are thinking, then say it. You can't expect them to read your mind. Have you ever noticed that the only people that can read minds are women? That is why there are only old women sitting behind a crystal ball and not an old man.

How can he forget Christmas? I would be more than pissed. He can't remember the importance of an anniversary, or a birthday,but he can remember the time a television show comes on. make him sleep on the couch.

omg are you kiddign me???? Why do you let him do that to you?? Oh, because you let him thats why. Why didn't you speak up the first year it happened? He is totally taking you for granted. My husband would never forget our anniversary. He is the one who makes plans for us, very romantic. Girl, put your foot down and tell him how you really feel. If no reaction, get out and find yourself a man that actually cares and will treat you like the princess you are.

Guys just don't think like us! They almost have to be guided every step of the way. You always have to remind them even on the very day. Maybe you could give a couple of days warning by placing his gift on a table addressed to him near his favorite spot in the home - like near the TV, so that every time he turns the tv on he'll see his gift which will keep him reminded. Then if he still doesn't get it - konk him on the head with his gift!

You sure do have the right to be upset. You should also speak to him about why that day doesn't have any meaning for him. You should also let him know that even if it doesn't mean anything to him that it does mean a lot to you. Hopefully he will understand this and you will never again face the possibility of not having this important day acknowledged.

Yup, you got a right. If it means that much to you, weren't you pissed for the first 4 years? What's going on that he finds that OK. Does he forget your birthday?

Well first how are other days celebrated? Does everyone go all out for birthdays, mother's day, father's day, valentines day? Is it just one day he chooses to forget or is he just the type that doesn't care about any of those days?
