That’s funny. I’m reading this book called “Love & Respect” where a similar situation happens…but he doesn’t realize it until after he gives her the card. At least you realized your mistake before you gave her the card.
From the book… |

Whilst living in Germany, I was dating a German girl and could speak no German.
she had to go to the doctors and get a contraceptive device (???) inserted. She was in great pain and had to spend 24 hours in bed. Now remember I can speak no German so I think I will toddle off and get her a get well card and some flowers. Well when I got to the card section I was out of my depth, thousands of cards!! So I thought I will grab any card and explain my lack of German. I went to her apartment presented with the flowers and gave her the card. MY CARD WAS A WELCOME TO YOUR NEW HOME CARD!!! |

Been there, done that, never going there again. My wife loves to give and get cards so I play it safe now. After I forgot to get a birthday card for her about 25 years ago she became a bit upset. I didn't forget her birthday or to get her a present and take her out of town for the weekend, just forgot the card. I went to the local dollar store where cards are $.50. I bought about a dozen each birthday, anniversary and christmas cards. I put them in a large zip lock bag to keep them clean. I always have a supply on hand and don't have to make excuses to leave the house a 10 at night to get a card. I also keep them in my locker at work so she doesn't find them. That wouldn't go over well either. Good luck next year!

I am pretty good about remembering cards for occasions. My wife always keeps them and puts them in a drawer and goes back and reads them sometimes. Apparently I have purchased the same card for multiple birthday and anniversary. I just explain it away by telling her how great those Hallmark writers are and how perfectly they describe her.
