Not cool, Pox. He's out of line. Sounds like he has issues.

Shoot me an email if you want a birthday present.

I adore my wife and part of my job as her husband and family is to make sure that she NEVER has to question her value or importance to me. I have made sure that my wife knows she is a big deal to me since we first started dating and she has always done the same for me. It's difficult to know how wrong something is until they have truly experienced something that is just right.


you sound like high maintenance.


Gotta say, there are either some hardhearted bastards in this thread or they are acting like a badass when they know in reality they would have rolled out of bed and told their SO HBD.

Yeah, you couldn't be any more wrong on this one. I'm just a bit of a romantic and I know what I know from actually being VERY happily married to my best friend

I'm not pretending to know his motives. I'm not a big birthday person, because I don't like being the center of attention. But if the guy I've been with for a decent amount of time didn't call or text to say happy birthday, saying he didn't want to be cliche, I would think it's strange. And yes, my feelings would be hurt. He might've been planning a surprise for tonight, but why not just say the words?

I'm not calling him a bad guy. He cared enough to wish her a good day, etc. But she's allowed to feel hurt. The text could've been worded a little better to not read as self pitying.

No and I'm not making any now either.

I even told him. "If you forgot, you forgot. If you just DGAF, you just DGAF. Neither of those make me feel that good doe." :(


He's probably running for the hills at this point.

I'm a guy, I wouldn't care in the least if they forgot, especially if they've never been my girlfriend for a birthday yet.

It may be that his cutoff for a GF is someone under 30 and you just expired. Could be lots of things. Not many of them are going to be good though. Hope this helps.

Would be so gangsta if he did it as a test.

But in all likeliness, he just forgot.

First of all, HAPPY BDAY POXY! I hope it's as special as you are.

Second of all,

quote:

What would you do if it was your birthday and the person who you had been seeing for the last 6 months didn’t acknowledge your birthday at all?


These questions must be answered before I can tell you the appropriate reaction:

How long did you know each other before you started dating?
Have you been introduced to his friends yet?
Did he have a bday while yall were dating? What did you do?
Are you sure he knew it was your bday?
Have yall slept together more than once?

You're reaction should range from just calm down to kick him in the nuts and leave him depending on the answers

so?

6 months is typically past the just dating and hanging out stage. After 6 months you are at the very least serious enough to acknowledge the other person's birthday. Him sending the same text he sends everyday isn't just "I didn't want to make a big deal", he flat out forgot about it.
