Sad to say it's one of our many failings.\nAt least he didn't forget the Birthday entirely, just the actual date,  so it could have been worse.\nAnd you do mean  a lot to him, he did remember the week of your birthday, and called you to make sure, he got the right date.\nIf he didn't care for you, would he have even bothered to ask.\nMen can remember who won the world series, in 1902  or whatever year, but birthday's anniversaries, etc, just don't stick.\nSadly as I said, that is just a guy thing.\nSo cut him some slack for forgetting the actual day, and making sure, he didn't miss it all together. \nI'm sure he'll get you a great gift and give you a great night to go along with it.
