What did he get you for your birthday?
My moms today as I was leaving her home. "Hey, I meant to ask you, what did *Husband#2* get your for your birthday.
I came back around to where she was sitting. Nothing. He got me nothing for my 50th birthday. "Not even a card"? she asked. Not even a card I said. Since we got married we don't celebrate anniversary's , birthdays, Valentines Day, any holidays. So why would me turning 1/2 a century warrant anything different?
He had asked me two weeks prior "What do you want to do for your birthday"? Only after me showing him pearls gifted to me. I said "I guess nothing". I mean do you really need to ask someone that? He said well I get paid the day after your birthday and we are strapped for cash because we are leaving for Jamaica (which mind you, I paid for plane tickets, airbnb and now car) I've use 300.00 of his paycheck towards this.
Birthdays are a funny thing...same day, ever F"N year. It never changes. I guess my birthday snuck up on him.
