becoming exclusive perhaps ? I know times are tough, but it wasn't that hard. Events have different meanings for different people... just because you don't believe in one thing doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Are you a woman? You sure sound like one. He didn't "blow her off" if she said it was okay, now did he? Never mind the fact that he's somehow supposed to magically know that even though she said it was okay, she actually meant that it was actually NOT okay.

When a girl tells you its ok to be gone on a "special Date" even if she says she has soemthing to do shes usally not telling you the whole truth... its like a test to see how much you actually care...
he choose to do his own thing... which was strike1
then.. the of the trip she asks (knowing full well his time table apparantly) to take a small detour to a store.. he declined base don his timetable to get away with the boys...
Strike2..
then after leaving the girl pissed at him for strike 2 proceeds to blow her off on the anniversary...
HUGE strike3...

dude hes so far out no ref in the world would call it safe...

no Im not a girl..
just a older guy thats been around the block more than 1 time...

The first rule of maintaining power in a relationship is when your girl says it is ok to do something, you do it.

ATOT is often confused = times are tough
 
Get pissed at her because she didn't remember the first anniversary of your first porking or blow job.

Married people have anniversaries. Dating couples and cohabs do not. Drill that sh!t into her head. If you cannot, start celebrating every stupid fscking thing you can think of.

If she 'needs' stuff from Gucci, prada and coach, she's too stuck up and high maintenance anyway. Dump her greedy ass. She didn't call you either on your anniversary, so why is she upset with you? It sounds like she's nothing but a spoiled little princess.

Agreed.

The OP is:

A. an asshat
B. 18
C. all of the above

On a side note, this thread is a prime example of why you should never ask for relationship advice here.

Life with a woman is a slippery slope. You have to work to maintain your power or else you will be just like all the other "yes, dear" guys who can't spend a night out with his friends once a month because his wife needs affirmation 24/7

It's not his job to read her mind. If they make plans before their anniversary, she has no room to bitch. If his girl wants to "test" him, as you said, she's not worth his time. Fvck all that caddy bullsh*t. She either means what she says or she doesn't open her mouth.

You forgot:
D. A guy

Basically, he acted like a typical guy, and she acted like a typical girl. Nothing unusual here, move along...

It's not that difficult to figure out what a girl is thinking, most of the times us guys just don't give a Fvck.

Well being that I used to be like you till I got burned by doing my own thing when she was secretly upset that I wasnt clueing in on little hints she was giving.. I learned...
one too many fights because she said it was "ok" to do soemthing when it really wasnt...
and then her throwing back in your face...

Women keep mental score cards in thier heads and they remeber every little screw up you make...

flat out by the sound of this guys story he was being tested and he failed..

I have been burned too, but that doesn't change the fact that any of these "tests" is always failed. I go above and beyond all the time and when I go off to do my thing, I am not playing those games. You have to pick your fights and that is one I have chosen.
 
edited: in any case the OP should have done something for his gf on their one year anniversary. it sucks when you're not afforded the same appreciation you've given to another person. lesson learned (for the both of you).

the future of your relationship depends on the severity of the situation (which you'll get a feel for when you see her).

You both have good points. You have to "play the game" every now and then (if nothing else for your own sanity 😛), but you should definitely stand up to those "tests" occasionally as well.
