Am I making too much of nothing?

Please read Robert Glover - No more mister nice guy and see if you relate to any of the ideas presented.

I don't think I fall into that category. I'm mean I am a nice guy, but not in a way that makes me resentful.

Read the book. The nice guy reference is not what you picture in your mind.

It may not apply to you completely. Use your judgement to take from it what you need.

Feelingdown, I wanted to recommend the book, "Hold on to your N.U.T.s" to you. It's a great book and has a lot of tools in there that will help you be the rock in this relationship and to deal with your hurt.

Best of luck to you.

I have a great relationship with my husband. Every day is awesome EXCEPT when expectations become unrealistic. We recently celebrated our one year anniversary from our first date. We were both in kind of a bad mood and because my husband had high expectations he was terribly disappointed. It was on okay day we went out and had dinner at a nice restaurant, but the unrealistic expectations ruined everything. Your present is coming. Be patient and try not to have unrealistic expectations on special days.
