[quote=Anonymous]FOr the past two years DH did nothing for my bday, not even a fake card from the kids (both are under 4). I mentioned last year that I was hurt, that Iwould have appreciated something--if not fancy plans, maybe take out and flowers or at least a card. THis year, he did nothing. It was a totally intense week for me--lots of late nights working. At 5 he said he could be home by 6, and that I should pick up something for dinner. So, I picked up some take out on the way home, including cupcakes. Fed the kids, bathed them, then at  7:30 I gave the kids (who were going nuts) cupcakes and put them to bed. DH got home around 7:40 with a box of "birthday pastries" and acted really pissy that I was not jumping for joy at the pastries. This comes on the heels of a long discussion of how he is going to step it up around the house and make dinner at least 1 to 2x/week, since i"m sick of it being entirely my job when we both work f/t, and I do much more around the house, etc. It just seems like all my friends do something special on their birthdays--a card and flowers, or a birthday dinner out, etc. DH's response was "well I don't expect you to do anything for my birthday" (even though I do).
