What would you do if your boyfriend wished you a happy birthday on the wrong day?

That really isn’t anything to stress about. Just celebrate today and tomorrow lol

He was just wrong by one day im sure it something you two can laugh about and move on. I don’t put a lot of pressure on mine to remember dates. He does remember them :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: but as someone that couldn’t remember the day we got together I have no room to judge

Honey, it’s a man thing! My ex never could remember when my birthday was. He remembered it was in January, but not the day. Even when I told him it was one day of the month before his. There are SsoOoOoO many, much more important things to worry about. If he treats you good and has your back then let this one thing go.

My husband and I have been together for 16yrs. It’s a running joke for us that my birthday is February 2nd instead of the 1st. For 4 yrs my 2 older kids really thought my birthday was February 2nd. And I always wondered why he never told me happy birthday, on my actual birthday. It’s just another day in the life y’all are building together. And so many more important days will come along. Just be thankful he was a day early instead of late lol.

Yeah we have been together 10 years he just isn’t good with dates my dad isn’t either… I’ve wondered forever of it was most men or just the ones I know :rofl:

I literally told mine 3xs when my bday was the same week of my bday and he still told me 2days ahead of time.
I dont feel nothing towards it. Because there is the saying “boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider”
I know he literally just cant remember birthdays… So oh well :roll_eyes:

My husband always get my bday day wrong and our kids bdays. I have to remind him :rofl:

My husband forgot my birthday two years in a row… He has a terrible memory for dates. He’s clearly made an effort so be thankful he’s at least trying!

I would laugh and tell him it’s not my birthday and then move on with my day lol.

be glad he at least wished you a happy birthday, even if it was on the wrong day! There are so much bigger things in life to worry about! Let it go and move on! If you sulk, pout and turn this into a bigger issue….he probably won’t be around for your next birthday!

Hes a man. Men forget things more than you think. It’s off by one day so I wouldn’t be hurt by it

I wouldn’t be so hard on him. It’s only one day, and at least it was early. If it was 2-3wks, then I’d be abit miffed. In all honesty, not alot of men remember things like that, so at least be happy he tried

What are you hurt about. He got the day. Date. Wrong Have you never done that Dontbe so picky

It’s literally a man thing. My fiance spent so much time trying to remember our anniversary that he didnt even remember what day my birthday was until last year. Dont sweat it lol

The fact that he remembers you have one is awesome😂

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: My husband always thinks my birthday is in January or June even tho it’s in July. We’ve been married for 5 years and dating for 10. He gets his J months mixed up. I don’t ever let him feel bad about it or I don’t ever get upset about it.

Oh my goodness, I’ve been married to my husband for a little over 30 years, and i don’t remember the date or year we was married. I know the month.
Don’t let it hurt your feeling that ur bf did not get your birthday date right. He did remember your special day, He could have not remember at all. And that would have hurt you alot worse. Just laugh about it and maybe he will get it right next year.

Relax… Men never remember dates the fact that he was close makes all the difference

It was a honest mistake. Nothing to be mad or upset about. At least he wished you a happy birthday.

If my husband wished me a happy birthday a day early (which has happened!) I would not be offended. It would make my day. Better early than late but that’s my opinion.

14 year I been with my partner and guess what he always thinks it’s 12th but it’s 10th. But he can remember all 5 of his kids date of birth which really suprised me

I never remember my other halfs birthday always asking him been with him 7 yrs. He always asks me mine if he is filling in paperwork etc. It doesn’t hurt my feelings or his we laugh it of as we are both as bad as each other

Better early than late :sweat_smile:
Happy 30!

So are you one of those women that purposely doesn’t mention it to see if he remembers or forgets? Sounds like you need to get over yourself. I honestly wish I had your “problems” This is a ridiculously spoiled post. Who tf cares?

Oh boy… That could happen to anyone… Geesh…get on over it… I don’t even understand why your but hurt over it

Goodness, he made a gentle mistake… at least he remembered!!! How would you react if he didn’t frmbrr at all. if that’s your biggest worry at 30, you’re lucky.

In all fairness he may not have looked at the date. Atleast he tried to make some sort of effort to show he remembers. I personally would have thought it was hilarious and would have playfully teased him for AGES about him “forgetting my birthday” or “trying to age me early” haha.

Im sure you quickly see the funny side of it, once the general shock has worn off. I feel like you may be more upset that you’re 30 now, and are unintentionally seeing this as a bigger issue than it really is

It happens my mom asks when my birthday is and when i tell her to guess its always the day before it is and im turning 30

I’m forever wishing people Happy Birthday on the wrong days… family friends partners!

I’d rather a day early than a day late. At least he was close. Most men can’t remember birthday’s. I’ve been known to get days wrong, thinking the day is the 26th and it’s not, or it’s Wednesday when it’s only Tuesday. :upside_down_face:
Be happy that he was close to being correct.

Your feelings are your feelings and they are valid. But working out why you feel that way is important. If you’re feeling hurt by it, is it because you believe if he cared for you he would get the day right? From a lot of these comments it’s clear men are useless at remembering dates so hopefully that helps you a little to feel better. He seems to have attempted to remember which shows he cares. Your relationship is less than 2 years so he’s only had 1 birthday with you and that was 12 months ago and relatively early in the relationship. I hope you are able to feel better soon and hope that you can communicate your concerns with him so it can be worked out for the future

My brother passed away right after his 39th birthday. 9 years later, I was turning 40. I had my husband pick up flowers for my mother because I bought her flowers on my birthday every year & we were going out for dinner.
They all forgot it was my birthday. I will never forget how I felt!:pensive::pensive::pensive:

I was married, and my husband never remembered my Birthday in 35 yrs. Or Anniversary!:anguished:

Just hint and give him clues or come right out and say tomorrow is my birthday don’t let it bother you :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:

It’s better to be early than to be late,my ex used to remember my birthday weeks later or sometimes never

I’d probably PMSL and be like WHAT?! and he’d be running out to buy something BIG to make it up to me… in saying it that however, I forgot important dates most years…
Although, I’ve never really cared for my own b’day haha but i can still empathize how hurt others could/would be. I would just let him know it upset you

I’d laugh it off and tell him that it’s tomorrow. Just put a reminder in his phone for years to come. He could have forgotten altogether :woman_shrugging:t5:

Better than your own mother forgetting your birthday like mine did on my 25th she got her tongue peirced and forgot to even call. When I found put why I was confused then amused. Most men are not good at remembering dates, at least he was close so what if it was a day early better than not at all.

I’ve been with my fiancé (just engaged earlier this month) for almost 5 years and he still sometimes thinks I’m 30 (I’m 31). I just give him a hard time about if and move on, but I’m not mad. It’s obnoxious yet funny.

I work third shift so today is actually my tomorrow lol. Maybe he wanted to be first to say it or worried he’d get busy tomorrow and didn’t wanna forget so he says it early. Either way I’m sure he didn’t mean any harm. I wouldn’t be extremely upset.
