hi there agony aunts, may i just say, i so thank you for all your help when i post a problem on here, and here i am again, i am not sure how to start this one but here i go, i am in a relationship and its LDR well a couple of hours away, we are committed we see each other as often as we can, we keep this relashioship going good, we have spoke about the future he loves me to bits and told me i have no worries of him ever leaving me and one day we will be together for good, so i bet your all thinking well that sound all good to me, like i said i dont know if i am been silly about this question i just need to hear answers from a outside view.

my birthday was coming up a few days ago, and i was getting quite excited as you do recieving cards from friends and family odd present, so on the morning i was expecting a lovely text from my boyfriend of nearly two years, no nothing, i got text of friends and family cards off friends and family, then a text came late morning as he always texts me then, not saying anything about my birthday no happy birthday no acknowledgement that he rememebered, so you can imagine i was well upset, so i text back and said i was upset that he had forget, i usually text him at dinner as i have always but this time i didnt i did not like not texting him, so then i got a text off him asking where was his dinner time text, i told him i was too upset to text him, he said do you really think i would forget he said whats on its way to you you will be very happy, so then out of the blue got a lovely massive bunch of flowers and chockys and did i feel guilty, but then i thought did he just order these now cause he did forget, and when i sent that upset text he panicked and got a birthday treat sorted for me very quickly, i dont know that, he said he didnt he said he had ordered them before my birthday and thought i would receive them in the morning of my birthday, i didnt even get a birthday card which upset me a bit too, just a card with the flowers and chockys of what the person in the shop had wrote, it was not the present i wanted, just a text to say happy birthday to know he knew it was my birthday, but i got nothing, and thats why i was so upset.

so am i being silly about all this i just thought any other boyfriend would of woke up wished you happy birthday th and enjoy your day love ya loads something like that it would of meant a lot to me, i could of got tons of presents tons of cards but cause i didnt get a acknowledgement of my birthday off my man of nearly two years it well upset me, has this happened to anyone else are men that forgetfull, i know one thng for sure he wont forget again, i bet he will be sending me a text one min past midnight, the morning of my birthday, am i being silly about this and taking it to heart that much any answers please and thanks.

So_Very_Confused agony auntI guess it's my age but as I've gotten older I don't really care much about my birthday...

my LDR boyfriend keeps thinking my bday is the day after it really is...

maybe he did forget... maybe he's just like that... I love my friends to death but I can't remember birthdays or anniversaries to beat the band....

eyeswideopen agony auntI have to start reminding my husband about a week before any special day or event. Some people are just forgetful and usually they have a penis.
