[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH just...forgot. Didn't even coach the elementary schooler to say "happy Mother's Day." This was after he thanked me for taking care of the card and kid gift for his mom, who we saw yesterday, discussing my flower order for my mom, and checking in with his sister's about whose turn it was this year to order flowers for their mom. He absolutely knew it was Mother's Day, he just didn't extend it to thinking about me at all.

I said I was bummed we were out of milk for coffee but a new breakfast place I'd been anticipating opened up down the street this morning. He said "fine, if you want it you'd better go, I'll stay with the kids." That was when the waterworks started - yes, I know the kids aren't vaccinated so i wouldn't insist we all go, but there were just ZERO dots connecting in his brain. ZERO. [/quote]  I’m sorry this sounds awful. But, honestly this seems like it’s about way more than Mother’s Day. Are you guys in a tough spot in your marriage?  It’s like he’s purposely trying to hurt you.

No, he's not, he's just that oblivious. We have two small kids, two jobs, and a really busy and sleep deprived life, and he's always been bad at sentimental gestures, so i get that he's tired and was trying to keep the toddler happy. But I thought "remember it's Mother's Day and say something nice to your wife/train your kids" was a pretty rock bottom expectation. [/quote]
