Who else has a completly unromantic husband???

nicolesspirit

I have to say our anniversary came and went without as much as a card, a letter, a gift. We went to dinner which is kinda a weekly norm for us anyway and that was it. We didn't even get it on later! I got him a sentimental gift and wrote a little keepsake love letter and I got a "oh that's sweet" in response and off he went to play Playstation 3 WTF!

Anyone else have an romantically constipated husband! Make me feel better!

Mine .... he USE to be "romantic" .... I can't totally complain as I'm not into the whole cards and candy thing (or romance period) but our Anniversary came and went as well with out even a hug!  I can see why ... our LOs were born a week earlier .... BUT STILL!

DH and I go out to dinner on our month anniversary still.  I think we're still in the honeymoon phase though, we just got married last february.  Good luck with your DH

I swear my DH is more romantic with his electronic mistress (that damn Playstation 3) than he is with me.  He is trying to get better, but he is sort of romantically challenged.  Trying to ask him to be sentimental...forget it!!  We can complain together!

I think we are the opposite...I'm the romantically constipated one.  I don't care if we don't do anything for our anniversary, birthday, valentine's, you get the point.  He usually tries to do something nice, just not this year.  We just had too much going on, our anniversary was a month after DD was born.  I was just surprised that I even remembered this year.

Does humping my leg like a dog count as romantic??  That's how he swoons me now...:sigh::

Ummm....yeah.  I'm in this boat with you.  I'm not a real flowers and candy kind of gal, but still every once in awhile it's nice to get some flowers.  A couple of weeks ago I put DS down and made a nice dinner for DH and I.  I lit some candles and put on some nice music.  Right after he said thanks and jumped on his xbox.  He thinks that telling me over and over again that he loves me is romantic enough.  It's great to hear you are loved all the time, don't get me wrong, but sometimes I just want him to take that little extra step.  I've told him this, and he apologized and said he would do better, so we'll see.

You aren't the only one! I love DH dearly and he is fantastic in most ways but the romance department is horrible. You know I've literally begged him to send me flowers just ONCE and he never does. He sent them once because we had a huge fight, and that was 2 years ago. His reason? "It's stupid." Well, it may be stupid to YOU but it means a lot to me. Yet every night when I go to bed I get mauled. He wonders why I'm not in the mood that often.

We didn't do anything for each other for our anniversary except dinner this year. It didn't bother me this time because we are both so tired from DD.

Did he at least remember your anniversary? Mine doesnt. I guess Im slightly romantically challenged too because I dont really care that he's not romantic. He never gets me anything for my birthday or anniversay. Last year he bought be a cookbook for Christmas but every other holidays (like Valentines Day) is just another day to him.

This year he actually asked me if he is suppose to buy me a Christmas present. I told him, only if he wanted sex ever again.

I do.  But I make him plan something for our anniversary or we would just sit at home and do nothing.

That's how I always remedy the situation.  I might even stop by Coach and get a bag too.

Sounds like it's time to let him know what your expectations are.   I'd give it a while for your disappointment to pass and then approach him about it in a non-gifty and non-romantic time of year.  Let him know you were disappointed and a little hurt and that in the future, you'd like your anniversaries to be more romantic (or at the very least, not to include playstation!).

Maybe he counts when he dry humps me when I'm bent over loading the dishwasher! This happens EVER day!
