HELP PLEASE

Despite feeling mentally better,i did some unexpected. Today i forgot to wish my sweet Heart her Birthday and it is she who informed me what i have done.It is but natural she is hurt and very. I realy feel very sorry and dont  know how to react. My question is,am i solely responsible for this blunder ? Has my deaddiction no role in this? till date nothing like that has happened.

just don't let yourself get too upset because of it... dealing in a healthy way with our emotions is the best thing you could learn from this now. It is done, maybe you could make up with a nice dinner or even celebrating a non birthday day like a nice surprise to her

I swear i completely forgot that it is her birthday. I did appologize her but i feel she is hurt. Though,i cant change whatever happened, even God can not change the past, but i feel little upset.

Did you forget to wish her Happy Birthday?  Or did you forget completely that it was her birthday?    Yes...it's your fault. Own it and make it up to her.  We forget. It's human. It's easy to lose track of days or dates when getting clean. We get pretty wrapped up in ourselves and we need to be!  She'll have to get over it and she will...just stay on track here and continue to do well!!

Usually women expect the other person in the relationship to remember their birthdays without a reminder.  That is how we are geared!  There is nothing that can be done now by you forgetting but you can make the day special for her.  All you can do is tell her you are sorry.  You cant control her feelings past that.  Are you responsible?  Yep.  Dont let this get you down, its not the worst thing in the world.          sara

we are not at our best, mentally speaking, after detoxing, i remember that my short memory was quite a problem for some weeks after quitting and i even worried i had some long term problem but things were ok with time.
