Did anyone have a horrible first anniversary with your SO and the other ones turn out okay? Please share your experiences :)
I'm the same as you. I never lasted with anyone past one year so to me it's a great deal. To him it wasn't. He tries now but it's still nothing that makes me feel really special.
yes. this past week was our one year wedding anniversary. it rained the whole time. we was in a cabin but still it sucked. but on the plus we spent a lot of time cuddled up watching tv.
It's gotten better over the years, this past anniversary he made plans and surprised me. But I know it is still hard for him. I just tell him how important things are to me and when we have kids I know I'll have to get him to act excited about stuff and explain how important it is to them.....@shayleesimmons, hopefully it gets easier for ya!
@scidg3, @bellahali see I'm wondering if it has to do with how my boyfriend was raised because no holidays except for Christmas and Easter seem to be that big of a deal 🤔
On our first anniversary my husband said he doesn't celebrate holidays like this one. Our second one just passed and still nothing haha I'm used to it now
Yes, our first wedding anniversary. He planned nothing, I told him where I wanted to go and I made a reservation and he made us run late so we couldn't make it. He tried taking me to a resturant by us and I ended up in tears and asked him to take me home. My sister "broke" into our house and put flowers and wine and it made me cry more. It was just horrible. I don't think he even told me happy anniversary when I woke up. BUT I blame it on the way he was raised. Big events were never celebrated, still aren't! No one calls or texts him on his bday......his mom even forgot one year! I think it's sad and I def want it to be different with our little ones! @shayleesimmons
@t142, awe man, I gotcha...I'm sorry it's been like that you deserve the world! See, my one year anniversary was absolutely horrible. I was devastated and it has kind of crushed my hopes of ever having a good anniversary. My boyfriend dated someone for three years before me but I've never dated anyone for longer than a year and I was so excited...it just broke my heart. He ruins every holiday and it's making me feel weird..
So far I have. My first one, I had been kicked out of my mother's house so I moved in with him. It was horrible!!!! He was such an asshole to me. The night of our anniversary he worked. I expected him to walk in with some flowers. Nope, he came in with a case of beer and laid up on the bed to watch t.v. Mind you, I had his gift already. The next day I gave it to him wrapped up. He told me to get dressed because we were going out to dinner. I ended up paying for dinner that night. The years after that have turned out okay. So far, I haven't paid for dinner again. But, there's been nothing extravagant. All it is, is some flowers and maybe dinner. That he cooks or takes me out to.
@t142, I can understand that..it sucks I'm sorry 😓 it makes it hard to get excited about things doesn't it
