Forgot My Wedding Anniversary

Tim the Enchanter

Right, as the title says, i completely forgot my wedding anniversary is today. Just got a call from the wife to see how the children were this morning as she was gone to work before they got up. Anyway at the end of the conversation she says "happy anniversary by the way". I said, "Sh*t i completely forgot" so there’s no getting around the fact that she knows i forgot. Its damage limitation now i suppose. So what do i do AH?

Happy anniversary numb nuts!!

The best way to remember your wedding anniversary is to forget it once.

With any luck, you'll now have the chance to trade her in for a better model.

put an annual notification in your phone for next time

Well done, you just hung yourself! If you had just said, "Happy anniversary honey, love you!" you'd have given yourself the whole day to organise something! As it is you'll be in the sin bin tonight without any chance of even getting a **** on the couch!

There's only one way to fix this, throw money at it

Book a hotel, with champagne & strawberries reception, find an overnight babysitter, take a half day and get home & packed.

Then when she gets there... "You didn't really believe I forgot did you?"

Whoopsadaisies!

Ah well. Sure it's hardly that big a deal is it? Unless it's your first anniversary then I wouldn't worry

Lots and lots of cunnilingus.

Get some flowers delivered to her place of work (or at home if she will be there before you), and book a meal somewhere nice tonight. Get a baysitter organised for the kids before you get home and make sure that it is someone from your side of the family or a friend of yours so that it does not get back that you only asked them today

Then make out that you saying you forgot was you trying to make the flowers and meal a surprise. :pac:

A grand gesture is required my friend.

Some nice offers there

Sending her to cooking school might be saying something about the muck she currently serves

But there are nice ideas there for weekends away and spa treatments and stuff

...ah,....

Nah your screwed.

Hold on a sec! Has she arranged any nice pressies and dinner and champagne and nights away?

Dr.Strange

Pretend that you have alzeimers or something by asking her where the sugar and the teabags are. Then ask her what time it is a few times over 20 minutes.

Her concern for your mental health might just get you out of this jam.

Tim the Enchanter

She won't be home from work till 8:30 tonight. Plan is to have kids in bed, dinner cooked, bath running, and champagne on ice. After that i'll move out to the dog house to try and get a nights sleep!

This! It's the only way out my friend!

If only his wife was as understanding as you!

westendgirlie

Men, you know diddly squat about the wimminz in your life!

She said Happy Anniversary knowing full well you had forgot. She didn't wait for you to say it first now, did she? Now her kindly reminder means she wants you to do all planning for this evenings activities.

Do you need help with that bit too?

Stiffler2

Not Sure what you can do OP.

However I have just found your wife on the yahoo Forums...


She's not happy....

Yeah but I bet you don't forget steak & blowjob day

Now if it were me:

Get the kids off to granny/granddad asap.
Head to Super Quinn and sort out her fav starter/mains/dessert. And grab a couple of bottles of wine.
Now for the unromantic part! On the way home head to a glass recycling plant and get about 100 jam jars. When yer at home take the labels of and wassh them in the dishwasher. Put tea light candles in them and litter the bedroom with them and rose petals or whatever.

So when the miffed missus arrives home it'll be grub, dessert, wine and TLC.

I'll leave TLC details to your good self.

I'm sure the missus would appreciate her husband taking the babysitter to a hotel for a quick shag to celebrate a wedding anniversary.

I think the OP's wife might be saying the exact same thing to him later tonight......

Tim the Enchanter

You see she's not really into the whole expensive gift/night away thing. It would mean more to her if i had said happy anniversary before she went to work this morning. So really i'm fu*ked.

Just say you thought today was Thursday. She's not gonna mind. You're worrying for nothing.

dodderangler

Not being bad but I'd think this be real funny if your Missus was online

You should've just said happy anniversary when she said it then could've went and gotten something and later on when she comes home say ' ha you thought I forgot' and then give her a present
Ya have loads of time to get away with this don't worry

optimistic_

"Happy Anniversary by the way"?

Tell her to get f*cked with her passive aggression - For all she kenw you had the house decked out in rose petals and were lying bollick naked in a chocolate bath waiting for her.

eviltwin

Maybe she won't be bothered? I'm a married woman and while I can remember the wedding date we never bother celebrating it. Its all a money racket.

One fu*kup is a day is enough. If i had any idea she was going to be online i would be no where near AH looking for advice on this!!

Did you get anything nice?

reap-a-rat

Ok, this can be salvaged. You need to take her on a carriage ride along Fitzwilliam Place, and on to Lower and Upper Fitzwilliam Street in Dublin, enlisting various performers along the way in an effort to apologize to her. The performers you should feature include Riverdance, Boyzone, Steve Collins, the Artane Boys Band, and the Chippendales.

I just don't want yet another divorce stat in the country, this is the only solution :'(

Could be worse. At least you didn't say happy anniversary to the wrong woman

Just loosen your tie, pour a neat scotch and raise the back our your hand in slightly menacingly fashion.

I got rid of her for the weekend ... Party at my gaff. :pac::pac::pac::pac:

shopaholic01

Tell her that everyday with her is so special and meaningful, therefore you don't need an anniversary to acknowledge the joy she has brought into your life.

Try to look sincere though:D
