Im dead. I just know it. I forgot our anniversary. This is perhaps the lowest most terrible feeling I have ever had in my life. Six years (and two days ago) I got married to the most beautiful woman/mom/friend/parter in the galaxy. I am terrible at remembering any dates (anniversaries, birthdays, etc.) but I never thought Id forget this day.

If you guys dont see any posts from me, the rest of the day, have the mods change my profile to "Eternal Member" because I am sure to be dead.

I am open to any advice that may keep me out of the dog house. Maybe need to head over to the BMW or Mini dealer before she wakes up.

Dude. Your anniversary isn't today--it was two days ago? You're a dead man. Good luck.

Print this post and show it to the most beautiful woman/mom/friend/partner in the galaxy.....honesty is always the best policy -and if you are terrible at remembering dates - she KNOWS THIS

Schedule a date with her to honor your anniversary and ask her to put a big red heart on your frig next year - a week before 'the day' - it takes two these days....and I bet the most beautiful woman/mom/friend/partner in the galaxy wouldn't mind helping her man out on this

You sound like a keeper - and a typical man that isn't nearly as plugged into 'dates' as us gals are! And if a trip through the dog house is in order - play along - you'll be out soon enough

LOL!

Just be honest. Apologize. And then go all out with extra effort to show her how you really feel.

I agree. Don't try the "I was waiting for the diamonds to be delivered to the jeweler" excuse. Fess up, beg for forgiveness, and buy her something very pretty. Also realize that she may remind you about this for the rest of your life, even if only to tease you about it.

I am physically ill (to the point of throwing up) over this. I kept a framed copy of the wedding invitations we sent out and put it up on our home office wall just so I wont forget. Havent worked in the office in a couple of weeks because Ive been in other parts of the house following and watching our 2year old as she plays.

I hope she understands. Actually, I think she'll understand because she knows rememberingdates are my weakness. I'll be honest with her. Just hope I can make it up to her.

Just tell her that the drugs you took just wore off. Swear to make it up to her.

We aren't big on celebrating our anniversary (Except next year, our twentieth, which will be celebrated in Paris). However, my wife was visiting her parents once on our anniversary and I was so busy that day I simply forgot to call. Whooo-boy. So I went to Saks and bought her a really nice set of pearls. That helped.

Prepare something for the entire weekend and then say "hey, baby, this was so special that I wanted you to have two whole days to enjoy ________" (spa, exclusive dinner, being her slave, whatever it takes LOL).

.... well, yeah. Dead Man Walking here xD
