Mothers day is important. But your birthday is too. that is your day! the day you were born. I think he was trying to squirm out of it by telling you usually women don't care. of course we do. everyone enjoys being honored. did he take the radio back because he didn't think his birthday was important enough? If you find it hard to let him know this, ask him to read my answer.

To sad in Seattle you should always be acknowledged on your birthday. That is very important. If you don't have children how is Mothers day the important one. He messed up and didn't even buy you a dollar b-day card, so to make it sound good he threw the old Mothers day ruse at you. He needs to apologize and try to make amends with you instead of excuses.... Bye the way HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY

Man...is he crazy or what?? lol Of course women care. We are the ones who keeps track of all birthdays, anniversaries, and every other date in between. My question is - what did he do BEFORE you got married? If you didn't voice your complaint then, perhaps he is receiving what he thought was your signal that you didn't care. Communication - I say it all the time - people need to talk more about issues that are important to them.
Talk to him and let him know he cannot forget another birthday because yours is important to you -and just like he received wonderful presents from you - you expect the same. Period.

My now ex used to do the same stuff, but Heaven forbid if I forgot his or Mentioned something like Christmas or Father's day was the important one. He didn't even want to acknowledge the kids birthdays or anything else for them. He was self centered, egotistical, control freak and just a plain JERK!!!! Women do care!!!!!!! and so do most men

Your kidding right? this is a joke?
You should have been here in August when 1 woman complained her man payed for her to have her hair done and took her out for a romantic dinner but he didnt give her something to unwrap or even get her a card and she was considering leaving him over it lmao.
My birthday was also in August and I received nothing , zilch , zero , zip.
Birthdays are just as important as mother's day , but in my 2nd husband's mind I am not his mother so it wasnt up to him to buy me anything , (he could have taken the kid's shopping to buy me something but didnt not even a card), and he doesnt believe in Valentines day because his 1st wife put so much *****ing into it , it turned him off caring about it.
men are such fickle creatures.whats your man going to say next mother's day ? sorry didnt get you anything because women always say christmas is more important ?.

Your spouse has got it all wrong. Mother's day has its place but no girl wants to have her birthday ignored. Has to be the worst excuse I've ever heard. Of course women care about such things. I suspect even most men would.

It is important to many people, that's why Hallmark sells so many cards. But it doesn't matter whether it's important to anyone else, he should know you well enough to know if it's important to you. It sounds like it is.
I hope this is the year that you seize the opportunity to create change in your life, so that this becomes your greatest year ever.

Awww......HAPPY BIRTHDAY !
He's incorrect. Everyone really wants to be remembered on their birthday!
Women may show it more than we men do, but we ALL are disappointed when the very one person that is suppose to love and adores us doesn't feel that our day of BIRTH isn't special enough to warrant getting a lousy card.
SHAME on him.

He needs to read this book. This is the most important book I have found on understanding each other.
There are five love languages, and people need to find out what is important to their spouse and feed them through the love language that feeds them.

I have to ask have you been doing things like nagging him? Usually when a guy doesn't do something like buy a card for the wife's birthday he's passively getting you back for something, i.e. nagging, complaining, etc.
