[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He was worried he had forgotten an anniversary or your birthday. He may be more excited when it happens. [/quote]

This. And also your reaction to him not throwing a parade for you is a bit much 
Go and have a nice time. I'm assuming here that once he's there he'll be into it.

Ignore the bad advice to throw a tantrum and cancel and go out with friends.

Take the advice to clue himmin next time such as" if like for us to go out just the 2 of us more often. Does The 3 rd Saturday of every month work?".  If it does then keep planning.[/quote]

Agree with all of this. It sounds like he was thrown by the surprise element and was worried he forgot something vs doesn’t ever want to do anything with you ever again.

I hate surprises. DH knows this. I like to think I would feign excitement if DH sprung something like this on me, but chances are my reaction would let him down. I am not a control freak but I would much rather have a say in plans. Maybe Friday would be better because he has to get up early for something Sunday, or he has been really wanting to try the new Italian place and you made reservations somewhere else.

If you want him to surprise you with a night out, or just take the initiative to plan something on his own, you need to be very explicit. DH - I would like for you to plan a night out for us sometime in the next 3 weeks. Here are some days I think would work for me, and here are the numbers of the usual sitters. Please surprise me with a restaurant and/or an activity. [/quote]
