I know you say you can't vent IRL, but really hope that you can talk to him about this soon and tell him about how you feel and that he will make it up to you.</p> <p>I was prompted by this thread to remember that my DH likes directness and pointed out to him a little list I made called "Anne's birthday suggestions" that was on the fridge! (less than a month til then) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560960 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 12:07:10 +0000 citygirldc 560960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry to hear that. Go shopping and bring all the stuff home and let him see it. If he says anything, say you treated yourself on your anniversary. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560939 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 10:21:37 +0000 Deborah 560939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susan, I'm sorry hubby forgot. Do you think the new business has caused him to have too much on his mind?</p> <p>Hope you find something nice.</p> <p>Have you said anything to him yet? It would be kind of funny if he thought you had forgotten too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560882 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 07:32:34 +0000 Louise 560882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(((hugs))) buy something fantastic and when he notices tell him thanks he bought it for your anniversary. I'm not quite sure how this will work if he doesn't notice? Perhaps wave the new item under his nose!!

I'm sorry he forgot and that you're feeling so down. I hope retail therapy makes you feel better. I'm sure the husband will be quite delighted to see what thoughtful presents he has bought you to make up for it!</p> <p>In my relationship i'm always the one who forgets dates and spans of time. My anniversary is this Sunday (yay i remembered!) but i was telling someone that it would be 5 years and my BFF reminded me that it would actually be 6. Oops. </p> <p>Luckily my husband isn't much of a shopper. ;)</p> <p>Feel better and maybe share the loot in some pictures when you're done? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560597 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 02:07:39 +0000 Suz 560597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Susan. Sorry to hear that! </p> <p>Do you know my husband and I have both forgotten in different years? (Hangs head in shame). </p> <p>But I hope you find a wonderful bag and shoes! And then go out on the town when the two of you have made up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560582 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 01:50:25 +0000 soobee 560582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies, thanks for the hug Angie, I could sure use one. Sorry to be such a downer, but I just can't bring myself to verbalise IRL so I thought a little vent here would help. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560575 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 01:45:40 +0000 Angie 560575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(((HUGS)))</p> <p>Belated congrats and have fun shopping!

I suppose a "Happy Shopping!" is in order. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560566 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 01:33:54 +0000 Sheila 560566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh dear. You have my sympathies, this must be very vexing to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot---not-a-card-nor-a-flower---off-to-buy-new-shoes-and-handbag#post-560563 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 01:31:25 +0000 soobee 560563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>18 years yesterday. You wouldn't think a card would be too much to ask for? I don't like my husband today. I'm going to empty this town of every pair of shoes in my size, and every single handbag. Then I'm going to see what I can find online. </p>
