OH gone on wknd away with old friends, 'forgot' 'twas our 1st anniversary

Could you give us a little more detail? Is this a wedding anniversary or just from when you got together? In general what's your relationship like? What I'm getting at is that some people aren't too fussed about anniversaries and remembering certain dates. Did you mention it to him and what did he say?

Did you sit around waiting for him to forget, or did you remind him and he forgot after the reminder?

Why the inverted commas around forgot?

Do you think he or she forgot your anniversary on purpose?

Honestly if everything else is ok with you I wouldn't make a big deal of it I would tell them your disappointed they forgot and maybe do something during the week to make up for it - if this is just another thing to add to a list of let downs well then you need to think where your relationship is heading

Marking an anniversary or remembering when it is is not something you need to be concerned about. Don't make a problem out of thin air.

That s something I did. At the beginning she was into this anniversary thing. She used to ask me "do you know what day is it?". Of course, I had no idea what she was talking about... Anyway, after a couple of years she stopped this thing. She knows it is not something I remember but in fairness I often come home with a surprise for her.
It may be important for you but it is not because he or she didn't remember that it means he or she doesn't love you.

It matters to some people more than others Minty. If it is something that you would like to mark then there's nothing wrong with you asking him if he'd like to do something for anniversaries.

I wouldn't take it to heart, sounds like he's gotten carried away seeing his mates.

This is the first thing which also came to my own mind. I can understand your disappointment if it's a wedding anniversary, but if it's the latter then I don't think many people (men in particular) will ever have such a date stored away so to speak.

I forget my own birthday.

Anniversaries? I pay little or no attention to such arbitrary nonsense.

Congratulations. 365 days.

ummm, and?
