Girls get the 7 year itch. Not guys.

So she just texted me back with a "Why?".

She then responded to my MIL's text to clarify that our anniversary is on the 21st. I'm freaking the frick out man.

She's more of the coiled snake type. I texted her telling her I feel like a jackass and that I'm sorry. I can't not avoid detection from her BS radar.




well disregard my post above

but you shouldnt fold so easily next time

the "hide the card and pretend you hid it earlier" trick has worked for me at least half a dozen times

And you already tipped your hand.

If you would've played it cool you could've gotten through this unscathed.

I didn't do myself any favors by jokingly asking her to send me some nudz about an hour ago.

So you help make the plans and actually say something before the day?


Have to. My work schedule is so crazy week to week. We have to discuss what weekend we want to get away(weekend before anniversary or the one after, etc).

I did learn the hard way that I had to tell him that even if we go on a trip for our anniversary...he still needs to get me a card.


2nd anniversary..we wake up in the hotel and I give him his card I got him. Nothing in return. "But I thought the trip was the gift."

My MIL is not the kind to get shite like this wrong. I've never seen her misfire on a birthday or anniversary.

Guys in general dont do well with cards. Well at least I dont. I'd prob be the same way thinking the trip was the gift. Not an excuse just saying.

That's the kinda shite I'm talking about.

Yeah I get that. Most guys hate cards(my husband does so I always get him the light, funny ones..not the overly sappy ones). But I'm a big card person...so I've told him to just go ahead and assume I will always want a card from now on. I actually keep every card I get, esp ones from my husband and family.
