Chapters

If your partner forgets that it was your birthday or anniversary, he makes you doubt your worth. However, your best friend can forget it was your birthday that morning, right? And tell you later, Dude, I forgot. Happy birthday. And you're gonna be totally cool. Ah, no problem. Whatever. Why is it that we don't do the exact same thing for our partners? I think because the stakes are higher. With love. With love and the relationship you have about yourself that is projected on the other person. If it's so important for you to celebrate that anniversary and your husband forgot about, there's nothing wrong with you reminding your husband, hey, tomorrow's anniversary, she's one of the gym you want maybe him to do something special, Remind him a week before. There's nothing wrong with it.
