Girl, guys are just dumb sometimes. We as women, need to accept this. However, it doesn't mean that these acts of stupidity should go unpunished. Let him know that he has forgotten in a way that will really make him feel like crap. Like give him a gift, knowing that he does not have one for you. Or ask him what the temp. for welding is, and then follow that question with asking him what is the date of your anniversary, if he's still not catching on ask him what the date is today? Then he'll get it and see that he has really messed up. Next year, try to help him remember in some subtle way. I know this sucks but sometimes, with some men it is necessary. Sorry and good luck!

Everyones minds work differently, My wife can ask me to stop and opick something up later and by the time a few hours go, I have completely forgotten, not out of laziness but honestly forgotten, on the flip side I can tell her almost every detail of every date, trip, or night together. I can tell her what she wore, what she smelled like, what she said. I am also terrible with remembering birthdays, etc. I cant even tell you my mothers birthday. I dont think this makes makes me an inconsiderate person. Dates just dont stick in my mind. Give the guy a break. If he treats ya good, you love each other, What more in life is there?just make sure to give him a friendly remiinder a few days ahead of time

No and he knows how important you are he just stays at work in thinking about temps. way to much.
To explain my husband can work in his mind 24/7 he knows a birthday is coming but unless some reminds him he will forget every time.
What I do is put a note in his shirt every day for a week and and if he forgets then Ihave friends call him
Then I confess I YELL
Love the guy but don't expect him to remember the girl stuff

LMFAO! That's awesome. Actually - here's a first - Between my husband and I - I happen to be the one who forgets the important dates in our relationship - and he remembers. We've been married 9 or 10 years and I STILL don't remember our anniversary. Sad, I know, but in all seriousness - I can remember certain things but not others, but then I've got a brain tumor so what the heck would I know? Just don't take it too personally. He loves you enough to be married to you - don't let the small things upset ya ... grin and bear it - and gently remind him. Or hit upside the head with a frying pan .... it's really your choice, but I know I wouldn't like it if my husband hit me. Good luck N E way.

Lord I wish I knew,hell I'm doing good if mine remembers where he left his car keys when he came home the night before.LOL
But what I do with the important things like Bdays,mothers day, anniversary's is mark them real big in red on the calender and drop not so subtle hints when it gets close, Ok so it's not ideal and not very romantic but hey it beets the hell out of fighting cause he forgot and you wound up sitting on the couch eating chocolate and fuming.

My fiance can barely remember the day he proposed to me! IT WAS JUST 2 MONTHS AGO!!! But he can tell me every detail of that day and night and what I was wearing, the first thing I said before he asked me and after!!! I believe dates sometimes aren't important to remember, the moments are! Give him a break and don't take it personal!! Men sometimes pick and choose what's important to remember and where they should store the stats of their favorite football team or numbers from work. Or for my fiance, the score of his last golf game! It's not that it's not important to him it's just something that will escape his mind when asked!

The anniversary comes once per year, but the welding is more frequent. But he will get seriously injured if he forgets the anniversary. Get the couch ready for him......

I would tatoo his ring finger with the date!
No,really u need to start reminding him weeks before
then start saying things like what would u like to do for
our anniversary? He might actually pay attention and
ask when's that? I bet he can't remember your birthday
either. Mine can't remember anything either, i actually
had our wedding date put inside our wedding rings, still
didn't help. I found bugging him 2 to 3 weeks before the
date has helped.

Well- it sounds like a typical guys. Us women on the other hand can even point out the color and type of outfit we wore on our first date even if it was years and years ago. Don't try to break your head about telling him how dumb he is for not remembering every time but- instead- hint him in the littlest ways so he doesn't feel so bad when you yell at him about it
