Missed Birthday

[Chris516]

I did a search prior to posting this. To see if it ever has occurred to anyone else.

Yesterday(5/17/2013) was my birthday. I received birthday wishes from my parents, younger brother n' sister-in-law. But I did not receive anything from my SO.

Has anyone else experienced this, in an LDR?

Did you hear from him/her at all? Could an emergency have come up if not?

While I hope she is not hurt(I am male in case you were confused by my screenname), I hope it was a non-medical emergency.

Did you hear from her at all that day? Have you heard from her since? Give her a call.

Maybe she forgot?

Also, and this is just being picky.... isn't today the 17th of May?

I thought the exact same thing about the date. Maybe.... the SO is in a time zone ahead? I dunno. But it would seem that she hasnt missed it yet.

According to the ticker Chris516 is in Maryland, which means it's 7:43am on 5/17. His SO is in New Mexico, which is 2 hours behind, so... it's 5:43 there. She might not even be awake yet.

ETA: Like I said in my first post, I know it's just being picky.

I'll wish the OP a Happy Birthday:

So I just wanted to warn you that you should:


And it's because:



So I just wanted to say




So you didn't feel like

Digitalfever - that was the best!

Happy birthday Chris

Give your SO a call - it isn't nice to 'test' people on remembering your birthday.. I count down my birthday to my SO leading up to it, saying things like "it's my birthday next week" "it's my birthday tomorrow!!" so even though he knows the date of my birthday he would be hard pressed to ignore all my excitement about it and forget

This. I know that I am horrible with dates and I have even forgotten my own mother's birthday before. So I don't get offended when people forget mine. Just so I'm sure he won't forget, I do the same thing as Jazi- countdown to my birthday a week or so before so that I'm sure he remembers!

Anyway, Happy birthday!!

I concur with Jazi. I will often bring it up suggestions for birthday gifts I'd like starting about... a month (or two) before my birthday.

My SO cannot for the life of him remember my age. My birthday was this Monday and he bought the wrong numbers for my candles!

I think he innocently forgot. Tell him! Some people are bad at remembering dates.

I didn't hear from here at all yesterday. I did give her a call.

Actually using a cell phone I bought several years. I haven't been able use it, because Verizon is on the CDMA network, and the phone works on GSM. So I finally switched to T-Mobile. We had both been wanting me to use that cell phone, because of the very low SAR(Specific Absorption Rate) rating.(I know, a lot of people think the cell phone radiation is just a lot of hot air about nothing)

Yes, Today is May 17th. Maybe I am being picky. At the same time, there have been periods where, I haven't heard from her for as much as two weeks. I did hear from her on Monday(5/13/2013) about something totally unrelated.
