What do you think?

Is it bad that your husband of 3 years does not get you a valentines gift or card, or anything for your aniversary?
Additional Details
Yes I always get him a card for valentines and our Anniversary, present too.


    




BIG T
yes.


augustjologs
No it's not automatically bad. Valentines is too commercialized.

if he doesn't acknowledge it at all, that's not so good.

Do you think it is bad? You need to change your outlook if you think it is bad. This is who he is. You should try celebrating in a way that both of you cand do. For instance plan valentines celebrating ahead of time...together.

Uhhhm, yes. I didn't get either of those last year and this year, and he heard about it. This year, he better get wiser.

Men arent romantic by nature, maybe you should have reminded him. Bring it up and see what he says maybe he will take you out for dinner since he missed it altogether.

Come on, its not that bad.

dont take it too seriously, as long as you guys are happy there is no sense in making a fight over this. my husband hadnt gotten me anything for the past 2 yrs until this year, its no biggy. just let him know how you feel withought getting mad, he might of not had time or it slipped his mind.

If the other 363 days of the year are good then no, it's not bad.

yes it is,it is very insensitive of him.I got Nothing for Valentines day and our Anniversary was the next day.I got him some of his favorite candy and made a nice card for him.

I know it might not seem that romantic, but you & your husband need to talk about these things before hand.

It's best to say "Yes, we are getting each other gifts" and choose a price range, or say "No, not this year". By communicating, no one ends up with hurt feelings!

It isn't bad, at all. It is in no way a reflection of how much you love each other.


Makemeaspark
What has he done in the past? Is he Jehovah's Witness or something that does not celebrate holidays or does he have an aversion to holidays.

If those answers are no then it is not good. Do you talk?


i'm your superwoman ♥
Rating
yeah unless he has a valid reason...


Paul
My wife and I sorta bypass all of the traditional holiday things now, but that is by discussion and mutual agreement (We'd rather spend the money on a night out together than on stuff). All things being equal, he should err on the side of doing things to make you feel good than on assuming you think its all commercialized nonsense.


nurse ratchet
It is very inconsiderate to not give you something to remember the day by. Did you give him something for Valentine's Day?


shasta
I did not get anything for valentines day from my husband of 5 years. We are both in school at night. Doeshe still show affection towards you?do you guys still do stuff with each other? He might be under stress at work and he might fill that you know he loves you with all his heart
Thank about it and give him a little break I didnt think twice about it when i didnt get anything cause i know he loves me


Harry G
its terrible!
im sorry


carys
no. thats life

Please forgive him. Since he's your husband he must be male. He probably honestly forgot, were idiots, all of us. Especially me.


Cara C
he'll get you something waaaaaaaaaaay better, a divorce! TOTALLY KIDDING! he's probably planning a surprise like a romantic dinner or something, dont even worry about it! :+)


Snowflake
Yes, that's bad. You haven't been married long enough to not be giving gifts. Usually after a bunch of years a couple will agree not to buy stuff but three years is still newlywed to me. He should have got you something, or written you a letter if no money.


Green_Eyed_Froggy
You didn't say whether or not he gave you anything for past anniversaries or valentine's.


Knome Lover
yeah...that's not good at all...the v-day thing is more understandable because it is a made up holiday...but nothing on the anniversaty is REALLY bad


*****
It is insensitive at the very least. I could never do that to someone I cared enough to marry.

Rating
it is bad...but some guys just don't understand how important these things are to women. hope you told him it bothered you, so it won't happen again. good luck!


**ChRiStInA**
wow yea hun thats bad he has a problem and u need to talk to him about it


JCW
Well that depends..Did you agree not to do anything for these special days. Do you normally give eachother gifts on these occassions? Did he say Happy Anniversary, and take you out for dinner, or prepare a nice meal for you? There are other ways that you can celebrate these occasions without him needing to buy you things. Are you having financial difficulties. Did he forget about the special days altogether, or did he at least acknowledge them by saying Happy Valentines Day honey, or Happy Anniversary babe?
