My boyfriend forgot my Birthday... do I bring it up now or wait until tonight.
I know he's not the type to throw surprise parties and such, so I'm thinking he forgot. What do y'all think I should do? Spare myself some resentment and bring it up. I'm not at the point where I feel hurt or anything yet. But, it's noon and nothing yet...

Get a friend to remind him. That way if he truly forgot he won't have to feel quite so badly about it. And who knows? Maybe he was gonna surpise you anyway.
And Happy birthday!! |

Why wait for him.

Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown | |

Thanks for the replies! 
Well, in his defense (if the fucker deserves one), he did get a business call first thing in the morning that send him into a tailspin. He's an architect and has a celebrity client that won't lay the fuck off. We quarreled yesterday because our Sunday together was interrupted by this client and I got pissed and accussed him of being this client's lap dog. The bitch could not get hot water in her new bathroom and he was telling her over the phone how to light the pilot light on. She refused to do it. He dropped me off and ran over to turn it on. Since when do architects make those type of house calls? Anyway... it's my bloody birthday and I'm skipping work early to have drinks with friends.

Beat him and the celebrity.
With a large fish or sharp instrument of some kind. Oh, and Happy Birthday. | |

You'll just have to take a page from my book. My birthday's in February, and starting about mid-December, I annoy everyone by announcing that my birthday is "x" amount of days away.
Sure, it annoys all those who must hear it, but they don't forget. 
Really, he may not have forgotten. He may have a sort of surprise for you. Just hold out through the day. Insatiable taught me everything I know about balls.

I wouldn't say anything until he finds out by himself. Boy, the payoff from the guilt is going to be HUGE!!!!!

Well, if he's forgotten, let HIS ASS feel sorry. It shou;dn't worry you that h's forgotten about your Bday. Just go out and have a great time and don't think about him and his CRS Syndrome (Can't Remember Shit Syndrome). Go out and have fun, and treat yourself to a nice night. Happy Birthday------;;;;;' | |

Happy Birthday, Resistor.
Maybe your boyfriend went JW and forgot your birthday on purpose?
But why don't you just tell him, "hey, sweets, it's my birthday today" and go, like , instead of "why don't he congratulate me?"

What happened? Did he realize he forgot? Did he surprise you? In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |
