Mrs Dee's Corner -Men And Special Occassions

What is it with men and forgetting special dates in the lives of their loved ones, especially their wives?






From birthdays, to wedding anniversaries, Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. I'm yet to see a man who doesn't forget these dates once in a while.


Mine isn't any different. If I don't start reminding him a week before the D-day and expect him to surprise me, trust me that day will come and go and he won't even bat an eyelid in remembrance.


My last birthday, I wanted him to surprise me with birthday wishes so I kept mute and didn't remind him as usual. On my day,the wishes were not forthcoming. So I was sulking and wore a long face. After constantly bugging me on what was wrong and I eventually told him, he went "oh oh oh oh oh!!!" " I completely forgot" . He wished me a Happy Birthday and the gift came much later. That was how he spoilt my surprise birthday wish.


Some men (or should i dare say all?) are not just good with keeping up with dates and special Occasions and if we women are not making a big deal out of it,its only because we want peace to reign.....Dont forget this as you read!!!

  2. It is more blessed to give than to receive.
    Give him his own surprises; wishes, gifts etc. and he will learn from it.

  3. For me, what works is when there is love and peace on a daily basis.
    Talking down on you, beating the living daylights out of you and coming on a
    particular day to sing like a bird on
    social media or cards is sheer hypocrisy and a lot of Nigerian couples especially among the celebs are like that.
    When you remind them that "hey girl, you just sang his praises during your last anniversary...", she goes "oh I was just trying to let peace reign etc."

  5. I'm big on celebrations be it birthdays, valentines, promotions, anniversaries, house parties, etc. It's like a family thing, we celebrate a lot.

    Some other people are not bothered about these things so if my man is not good with keeping up dates, so be it. From my over the top planning, he MUST know what's up.

    I'm not gonna throw a fit over miniscule things. Women forget too.

    2. You better don't let people push you out of a relationship for nothing. Not every man is a gift giver. i am the anon from below.
      While dating my husband hardly remembers bday or buy gift, he will be confused what to even buy. But he can never come to my house without bringing smthn that time. Be it suya, sharwama, ice-cream etc. When i go and visit him he can walk under sun just because i want fanta instead of coke they got me. He didn't have much then, and even now he hardly buy gifts just send you the money. He also takes care of his mother so well, that is a good quality i saw.
      Don't be moved because you are seeing celebrity gift their girls cars and designers o.

  7. Give me peace of mind. Constant reassurance on how much you love me.. Share the little you have with me in peace. Am good to go. Beat me everyday. Curse my generation daily.Talk down on me. Not being there when I need you. Buy me a house/latest car on my birthday. You can go to hell with your birthday or anniversary gifts. Me no want.

  10. Told Babe straight up that if he forgets my birthday or that of the kids, he should kiss his gifts goodbye for a long while. What sort of excuse is that? He doesnt remember birthdays, Valentine and Wedding Anniversary but he can remember his and expect gifts. Abegiiii.

  11. Some are like that. I guess women are more attuned to things like this.So u can remind them when u can,so long as they go out of their way to still appreciate u when u do.
    I m lucky though,hubby remembers it all;birthdays,anniversary,mothers damn,women's day,etc.I also pamper him on his days.

  14. On my birthday on a Sat. My husband left for work(his own biz) before I even woke up. He didn't call to wish me happy bday till ard 5. He was supposed to return home early so we can go out. This guy didn't come back home till 10pm. He will even video call you so you will know he's really on site. My bday i was just home alone,fell asleep by the time he returned.
    Next day Sunday,no gift sef. But he ordered Chinese and he credited my acct that I shld buy myself a gift I like.
    My husband is not a romantic at all. But he's a workaholic and right from dating he knows that role as a man is to provide and take care of a woman and our home. He's also very generous so I manage him like that. Don't expect any sending of rose or celebrating vals from him. It bothered me at first though. But we hardly argue,he is easy going.

    1. You have yourself a good man. Don't sweat it cos no one has it all. Accept that as his imperfection. May peace continue to reign in your home.

    1. My hubby is just Ike this. So considerate. Remembers even my own siblings’ birthdays, everyone in his family. My nieces and nephews. And he makes a big deal out of mine and the kids birthdays so I make a big deal out of his too. He loves it....

      And he still doesn’t the random gifting and such.

  16. Men are just naturally self focused beings. Instead of sulking just start forgetting their birthdays too.

  19. I think there are also some women like that. my mum never remembers birthdays but she remembers her wrdding anniversary as it coincides with Nigeria's independence day.
    One of my aunties is also like that. she forgets everything! birthdays, anniversaries..luckily her husband remembers.
