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


Wait, did you seriously not realize right off the bat when your MIL texted that today wasn't really your anniversary?

And then you texted your wife saying that you're sorry you forgot?

So now your wife knows that you don't even know what day your anniversary really is?



You are one pathetic loser.

My text message to her before my confession was about scheduling an appointment with the bug guy to visit our house tomorrow. I just texted her apologizing for not confirming that time with her before agreeing to it with the bug guy. No mention of anniversary.

Something's not adding up

You said its your 7 year anniversary

May 19th, 2009 was a Tuesday

May 21st, 2009 was a Thursday

unless you got married on a Thursday or a tuesday, those dates cant be your anniversary

it is it possible you got married May 22nd 2009?

We had a destination wedding. The day of the week didn't matter.

ah, but it does make anniversary research for anonymous TD posters much more difficult

maybe you should consider that next time you plan a god damn wedding

find a Newspaper that is a few days old, make a sign that you can hold in your other hand. The sign should read "this year I am going to see if you forget." Have a friend take a picture with you holding the Newspaper (date visible), and the sign (make sure its not time stamped pic). Take that home with you tonight in case she makes a claim that you forgot. Don't produce it unless she makes a claim.

Make a reservation and pick up a gift....nice earrings or some shite. change the date/time on your computer and make a calendar entry that looks like you were reminding yourself to make a reservation for the evening and to pick up her gift. Then reset your comp date/time to actual. Go to the ATM, get cash, pay for the gift in cash....incase she checks statements later.

It's one thing to forget your anniversary. It's another to mistakenly think your anniversary is on the 19th instead of the 21st.

I think you're in deeper trouble now

Her response...

"11:30 works for me. I just have to be out of the house by 12:30 to pick the boys up."

I think I might have pulled it off. Now I just have to worry about the bug guy smashing her.

Most guys hate cards


Have you seen the price of those things lately?


I used a leftover 'Thank You' card from our wedding for one special event. I wrote some thoughtful stuff though... it's the thought that counts, right?

How do you forget your anniversary in today's world?

But more importantly, why is it all on the guy in this thread to remember and plan? My wife and I always talk about our anniversary together. It's not her day, it's our day. We plan dinner, the weekend, etc.? Whoever wakes up first will usually tell the other one happy anniversary, etc. I can't imagine forgetting an anniversary all the up to lunch time and my wife not saying happy anniversary to me multiple times in the day already.
