Does your partner remember your wedding anniversary every year?

No deepak.You do not know the reson why I started it.Actually I was reminded of my sister when I started the discussion topic.I used to send her greetings diligently and many years ago mine was the only greetings she received one year and her husband had apparently forgotten this.She shared her disappointment with me and I told her that I never would allow such a thing to happen because of my loudmouth.I would keep blahblah ing about the occasion and keep planning for a movie or something that my husband would not get the opportunity to forget it.She resigned herself to the fact saying that [she is also a homemeaker]men would have so many pressures and this is part of their life .Remembering to wish becomes more important for the woman--this was our conclusion at that point of time.[some 25 years back]. Coming to the point, yours is higly commendable and it is wonderful that both of you remember it.May God bless you both with many more years of togetherness. And the last sentence was the best. Thanks for the great response.

Hi Kala! You are right Kala, I could not have thought of 'this reasons', which you have mentioned in your comments. I thought as your anniversary is very near, this might have prompted you to start a discussion about remembering marriage anniversary. Wish you a very very happy marriage anniversary in advance. Please do not laugh, if I tell you that on few occasions, when I extended my wishes to my friends/cousins on their annivesaries, they immediately said - "Look our partner has forgotten to wish us, however, it is you, who has wished us, before our partner(s) could do it." Your sister appears very calm and patient as she made her understand that forgetting anniversary is part of life for a husband. Many thanks for your wishes to both of us. Deepak

Hi Kala! My parents also did not celebrate their marriage anniversary, I agree that now a days trend is changing. Congrats on buying/getting a new Saree on the occasion of your anniversary.

Your kind words are definitely more precious than the two letter BR.

It was a very nice thing to do ; you did manage to wish her on the same day ;that is fine.She must have also felt very happy.And the fact that you ran like a Santaclaus would have made her day! The diehard romantic in me would have awarded you the best response if I had not given it earlier.--especially becaue you are feeling bad about not having wished her earlier on the same day itself.

Thanks for giving me the best response.

It is highly commendable of your husband Carolbee.Of course all this holds relativley less importance after many many years of mutual understanding and staying together.We have other things on our mind and ccept it the way it happens.THanks for sharing and am so sorry for the late comment.

It is sad that you both work in different cities.Has this been due to the venue of your son's education then?Hope it was only for a short time.This is what happens in our places too[though never at my home]thta one person is posted elsewhere and the mother has to hold fort for the children who are about to appear for thEIr board exam.It is simply impossible for the family to be together at such points of time.

Yes, it is all because of my son's school. He does not want to move to the city where I am working, so I let him be. But it is good that he is to finish his senior high school next year and will take the college entrance examination. Then we will be together for our work. It is ok for me though it causes some inconvenience. It is for the time being only. We can wait. Thank you for the response, friend.

That was very sweet of him Mayka .Thanks for the partticpation.I have not seen you too much in the forum of late.What happened? Hope everything is fine woth you and August has also passed.

Is the bypass over now? I pray for his speedy recovery and your peace of mindMayka.

The month of august has finally passed. Spent the last 20 days with my brother who is in hospital for a bypass operation. Was spending most nights in hospital and the days in office. So was too tired to mylot. Whatever spare time I got in office I would try and relax.

Thanks for the participation. Itis true that with the increase in the mechanical running of life special occsions are likely to be forgotte.It is a good idea to have reminders.I am a middle aed woman who had nothing else to do except stay at home and look after the family [for many years till I went on to my freelancing teaching ]So, i used to remember everything.Happy 15th anniversary wishes in advance.

Thank you very much for the wonderful wishes!!!

I appreciate what you have written.But I thought normally only women wold remember and men would tend to forget.Obviously , in your case you have too many things in your mind and htta is why you are unable to remember it.THanks for sharing.

Let him forget.You dont allow him to forget .Happy Onam wishes to you for tomorrow.Shall be a t your place for ilai adai.

Like me you also do not allow thsi occasin to be forgotten.I feel that it is better this way than think about it at all.Have a nice day.

When we are overburdened with work this happens Comfort.We also feel bad about it afterwards. THanks for the participation.

When we are young the charm is greater but I still make a sweet delicacy at home to honour the day. We also try and go out that day but some rare days this does not hapPEN.Thanks Tamara for your participation .

Obviously your husband HAS a good memory.I used to remember, in fact even now I remember particular sarees that I wore for a film and the theatre in which I saw it, some instances from school/college days very vividly.They are reducing of late ,but still they are not too bad .

iT IS GREAT THTA HE will be back for Christmas and also for yor anniversary.All the best and advance wishes for your wedding anniversARY.
