Is it weird that me and my boyfriend don't have anniversaries ?

[Anonymous]

We just don't do that .. we are together from 2 years .. and we love each other to death .. we have been through a lot but managed to stick together .. I think this is more important , but whenever someone asks us when our anniversary is .. we are like ugghh .. it was at the beginning of August .. but we don't really buy gifts and such that day ( we buy gifts randomly when we feel like it ) . .so is it really that weird ? I mean I think .. the wedding day would be a much more important day to celebrate every year .. I don't know ..what do you think ?

A real anniversary is when you are a "married couple".

If someone asks when your anniversary is, say "We choose not to have one because we don't need a special day to profess our love, we do that daily."

Its okay if you don't have a couples anniversary. You don't need a certain date to send each other gifts, or let each other know how much you care. You can do that any given day of the week. Continue loving each other, that's what really matters.

I like the way you think.

Thanks :)

what about those who don't want to get married or prefer long term relationships over marriage?

[Stacyzee]

Then either create a "anniversary date" a special day together in which you two will share and celebrate. Or don't create one at all, and continue to show your love for each other daily.

Haha nah, it doesn't have to be super important to remember the exact date. When I was with my ex, we had no idea when we actually became "official" so we just didn't bother with it.

some people think they don't need to do any aniversaries, and somet people do them every month. it doesn't matter whether you do it or not. if its your thing or not then that's fine.

Not weird at all :) all those dates to remember :/ who needs it? Just remember your wedding day and that should be good enough!

No, not weird. Every couple is different.
