Three Anniversary Mistakes That Make You Look Like the Worst Spouse EVER

3_65_popupAnniversaries are thought to be a time of reminiscing and romance. But when you make one of these mistakes, whispering sweet nothings over a fancy dinner may turn into folded arms, staring out the window, and a long silent ride back to the homestead.

“Babe, I thought it was tomorrow.”

Set a reminder on your phone. Put it on a sticky note and a stick it in your office. Stick it on your debit card. Stick it in your shoes. Do not forget this date. You forget the date, you may suffer spousal acts of passive aggression which can lead to no food in the house, dirty dishes piled for days, or grass growing tall enough you could bale hay in your front yard.

“The past twelve years have been so amazing with you…what?…oh yeah…fifteen years.”

Forgetting how long you have been together makes you look like an aloof time traveler. Where were you during those unaccounted for years in your mind? Do some mental backtracking and make your spouse feel super special by knowing how every year with him or her mattered.

“I know you said you didn’t want this, but I got it for you any way.”

If you are probing your spouse prior to the anniversary about what he or she may want as a gift, and the response is “Hon, I don’t want a lawnmower.” Listen to what is said and DON’T get it. You may think it is a wonderful gift idea for you, but remember the gift is for your spouse. So, if you are thinking about getting your wife a new lawnmower for the anniversary, she better be the one who cuts the grass.
