[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just dump him. It won’t get any better. My good friend cried on her fortieth because she explicitly asked her DH for a simple cake and he couldn’t even do that, because he “doesn’t celebrate like that”.  Don’t set yourself up for misery.

Only an infantile child cries because they didnt get a piece of cake for their birthday.  Not a 40 year old person who claims to be an adult.

Is your friend overweight or obese?  Be honest.  If not, why is chowing down on unhealthy junk food somethingto cry over.

JFC of all the things for a 40  year old to cry over.  There was an earthquake in Syria , thoisands killed.  Cry over that.

She's not crying over the cake.  She's crying because her DH can't even do the most basic thing to make her feel special on her 40th birthday.  It feels bad to tell someone "this is what I need from you to feel good about our relationship" and have them ignore it.[/quote]

Ok I want to say you kind of moved the goalposts a bit there, but I will roll with it.

So it's not about the cake, your friend cried because she did not feel "special" on her 40th birthday, and decided her husband was to blame.

That is even worse.  At least I can understand feeling disappointed (but not bursting into tears) if you wanted a piece of yummy unhealthy cake and did not get it.  I have a huge sweet tooth myself.

But, no, your friend turning age 40 does not signify she is "special" in any way.  She did not accomplish anything.  She did not get a promotion at work.  She did not get her masters degree summa cum laude.

She just got one day older.  That happens to everyone everyday they are alive.

What about your friend do you think is so special aside from her self centered neediness and complete lack of perspective and lack of maturity?

Has it occurred to you that her spouse has put up with this ridiculousness for years and does not wish to enable any more of it?

YOU go buy her a cake  Honey and the two of you can both cram it down and be "soecial" and insulin-intolerant together.[/quote]

Yes how "ridiculous" to expect a birthday cake on your birthday.  Her husband is truly a saint for putting up with such madness, as are all men.  I'm sure your future wife, the brilliant lingerie model who loves daily sex and hates when you help with household chores, would never expect such a thing.[/quote]

I am sorry.  Werent we talking about a 40 year old woman?  Who literally threw a temper tantrum over not getting some cake?

Yes, that is completely ridiculous behavior.
