[quote=Anonymous]I'm usually disappointed by the birthday as well, and while I agree with other PPs that we all are better off when we communicate about what we want, what many of us want is for someone to be excited about it for us. to put in the effort to find a gift we would love or a new restaurant that serves a favorite dish, etc. it is the effort (as well as the result). so yes, i could get what i want if i planned/bought it myself, but that just makes it another day that ends in y, not something different for my birthday. no matter how much i do for myself or choreograph it for him to do, it doesn't mean as much because it is without enthusiasm and excitement. i've grown accustomed to the fact that i will never get what i want from my husband -- for him to care about my birthday and want to do something fun/different/that requires planning. i have chosen to live with it because doing it all myself is even worse. anyway, belated birthday greetings, OP.
