[quote=Anonymous]So happy to read this thread because I actually cried today. 
DH is I guess not romantic or very creative, which has gotten progressively worse since we've been married  for 4 years- I guess to be expected... :/
He works a lot so we literally have not had a solo date night since September and I can't remember the last one before that. If I don't schedule, plan it, and demand that he take the day off, it doesn't happen.
Last year for mother's day he was working so we did nothing, but I was a little annoyed that all I got was a card, though I didn't say anything. I go all out for him on father's day- gifts and I research a really nice restaurant that we've never been too.
Today, he was supposed to start work at 4pm, but since he didn't mention any plans or ask me what I wanted I assumed we weren't doing anything. Then at 9 this morning he says, "Are you hungry? Since it's mother's day we should probably grab lunch or brunch." I remind him that without a reservation,  everything decent will be packed. And he's like "no worries, I took care of it." So I actually foolishly  think that I'm in for a nice surprise and I get us all nicely dressed and we drive to a "restaurant" connected to a liquor store where the hostess and wait staff look like they're wearing their pajamas and the buffet looks like a penitentiary mess hall. I politely asked to leave because the food looked so disgusting and I got in the car and cried  (I've also been having a bad season and super underappreciated at work so I think it all just caught up to me.)
The only bright side in all of this is I think he realized that he messed up big time. He's now scrambling to find a babysitter and is taking off from work Friday night.
If you read all of this, thank you. I needed the vent.[/quote]
