What are you bringing to the table. Give him something you know will make him jump out of his pants and i guarantee you he'll never forget another anniversary... EVER!
here's some ideas:
if he works hard, give him a full one hour full slow body massage, then bathe him. dry him and give him a light meal.
OR
make the bedroom as dark as possible,put on soft, no words music on medium volume, light candles and then dance for him to the beat of the music.
OR
buy him a ticket to a hometown game and then go with him.
or do a scaverngen hunt and at the end, let him find you ready, willing and able.
When you really love your man, is not about what he can do for you.,is what can you do for him.

You don't get it do you? If you let him know, then it's not a surprise. Fact is a 5th anniversary isn't anything special, and men don't care anyway. You are being immature and demanding, two traits in women that men don't like. No wonder he always forgets your anniversary, seems like he wants too. Why does he have to do something, why don't you? Oh that's right because you think it's important. Since that is the case, it should be your job to come up with something.
You write "my" quite often...poor guy.

Hi Luna,
I would hope he's already planning something special for the two of you...but I know how some men are about remembering things...since he still has plenty of time to plan something out, try sending him a romantic e-card reminding him how special he is to you (and throw in that you can't wait for your 5-year anniversary on the 30th)...Hope this helps!

Is it just YOUR anniversary?
Ok... so at dinner talk it over with him. Say something like this is a special milestone mark and talk about what would be nice/fun to do to commemorate the date. It doesn't have to be a surprise to you to be special.
My husband never really did anything special for me on our anniversary until our 25tth, when he bought me a nice diamond ring.... then on our 27th he bought me a 1 cwt eternity ring. On our 30th he had a matching engagement ring made with a 1.33 center diamond 10 matching side diamonds. It was worth the wait.

A weekend away together, including a spa together, an all over nude massage - by each other, to each other, followed by a shower for two. Then treat him to an indulgent meal of his liking while wearing something a bit daring and part way through the meal, tell him that you arent' wearing any underwear. The night will finish well. If you wake during the night, surprise him and wake him for a bit more "us" time. Treat him all the next day with "you". Have fun.

i can't tell you how many anniversaries and birthdays my husband has forgotten. it took many years for him to remember these things. not all but,many men, are this way. dates just aren't as important to those men. it's not that the event isn't important but, dates just go right passed them. i suggest you forget about the surprise bit and try to make plans together for a lovely weekend together. who know's? maybe after you make a specific plan,which will cause the date to stick in his head, he'll surprise you with something anyway.

thats my anniversary too!! it will be 12 years for us and my husband never lets it go without something really nice. i dont know what you like but we spend ours together either going out for a meal or if moneys tight a nice bottle wine and take away. he always send me flowers and buys me some nice underwear. if your husband not the romantic type, why dont you surprise him? get some really sexy underwear, make sure he knows you're wearing it, book a hotel if you cant get peace at home and have a bottle champagne on standby. go for a romantic meal near or in the hotel and make suggestive comments all the way through the meal... enjoy each other, thats whats important...

Sit him down and tell him that this anniversary's really important, and that you should both plan something special. Hint that you've got a surprise for him - and mention that you like surprises, too... And then don't get your expectations up.
Do remember, though, that the anniversary's about both of you.

Sometimes men need you to spell things out for them. Tell him that this is very important to you , and that you would like him to plan something nice for your anniversary. If he actually remembers and does something then you will be very surprised wont you?

Hang a calender up in the kitchen and mark it on the calender* Each Friday in June mark down how many more weeks till your 5yr anniversary. He wont have any excuses then.
I hope you're surprised* Best wishes*
