Never remembers anniversary?

Question

If you have been married for 15 years and your husband never remembers the wedding anniversary or aknowledgies it at all what would you advice?

Answer 1

Remind him with unconditional love, despite his flaws. That's what makes a marriage.

Besides, you have flaws as well.

Good luck.

Answer 2

My advice is in bold black letters put as reminder on your fridge. Chances are he remembers to go there from time to time. Do this about a week before your anniversary. He has seven days to see it, rememberi it and act upon it. On your anniversary, if he does not respond in any way, after 15 years, then it is not a guy thing, it's time for some serious action,and my advice would be, pack him a bag and kidnap him, take him to a hotel, and make passionate love to him, the guys at work will not ever let him forget again, cause he will tell them all about it! Good luck!

Answer 3

Believe it or not I am the exact same way and a female! I never remember that darn date and my husband is not usually impressed with me! Write it in big letters on your calendar and give him a head start on remembering - Honey I know you know our anniversary is coming up next week. I really need you to acknowledge this day this year. It means a lot to me.

Answer 4

I have been married 12 years. I have learned that if something is really bothering me, I need to let my husband know. I would not be nasty, but would tell him that it is hurtful to me that he doesnt acknowledge our anniversay. If he seems like he does not care, or it's not a big deal, then I would want to know why. Are you happy otherwise?? Is he a good husband, who just is a little oblivious to the things that matter to you??? Or does he do this to make you mad??? You need to find out, so talk to him when he is in agood mood, and is willing to discuss it. Dont force the issue or argue about it, things will just get ugly!!!

Answer 5

Well then maybe I should consider that the life sentence of 15 year is over, and move on? But seriously, if it has been bothering you, and for such a long time, why not tell him how you feel about it?

Answer 6

Put a calendar up and circle the date with a big red heart. Get a sitter if you have kids and make a date of it; dinner and a movie. He will probably have fun celebrating with you.

Answer 7

Tell him how much it hurts you. And the fact that you've been married for 15 years says a lot! It that is your chief compliant , consider yourself lucky! :)
Some men just don't have the same sentiment that us ladies do....Tell him your feeling and see if he responds respectfully.
Good Luck and I hope you light the fire under his @ss! :)

Answer 8

He is just that type of man. Sadly, there are more men like your husband. You are not alone. Not every man is like that. I don't like to put any kind of label on men. My advice would be for you to truly express to him, nicely & heartfelt warmly, that it is important to you & necessary for him to remember your next anniversay & to make it special. If he can't do that or refuses I'm afraid there's nothing you can do.

Answer 9

I would remind him every day starting about a month ahead of time.

Tell him that even if he doesn't need to celebrate your anniversary it's important to you so could he please do something special for you on that day.

Sometimes you have to keep asking for what you want.

Answer 10

That he's a guy...They forget too. You just have to overlook that, most of them do it without knowing it. Remind him every so often, maybe that will help jog his memory a bit.
