Do you still celebrate your Dating Anniversary?? (with Poll)
Original post by jonsgirl04
Me and DH will be dating 7 years on 12-4-08. Since our first Anniversary we have always gone to Mamma Lombardis for dinner and have gotten eachother a small gift. Now that we are married we decided to still continue to go out to dinner, but eliminate the gift buying. I just want to know what all you ladies are doing? Are we the only ones who will celebrate 2 anniversary's? I feel its important to remember our dating anniversary because its the day I met the man who completed me.

We'll still celebrate it in some way. Although im sure there will be times where we say we acknowledge it and not do something big bc honestly February is too hectic for us. His bday is 2/5, we met 2/10, started dating 2/17, my bday is 2/15, then theres vday on 2/14. We dont celebrate 2/10 but we always do acknowledge it. When he met me he probably thought 'OH GREAT' i meet this girl right before v-day so i already have to do this but then her bday is the next day
'running by with a south park dvd' that's all i just thought!
awwww i always remember that about him, that was funny and cute

Yup! We met in January (dont remeber the day...although he claims we met 6 months before but I was too stuck up to say hi)....we began going on dates in mid January and offically began dating on 2-17 ( I was 16 yrs old).
We couldnt cellebrate my b-day or v-day together becuase he had to work and I had school, so we went on a date on 2-17 and that was that....

I have know idea if we will celebrate both. Most likely just go to a nice dinner on the dating anniversary and celebrate our wedding going forward.

Our dating anniversary and our wedding anniversary are only 5 days apart so it won't make much of a difference on the celebration or gifts.

hahaha you were too stuck up to say hi that part was funny.
Yeah we hung out v-day but it was 2nd date. Then i just went out to eat and went to a local bar after with a few friends for my bday on the 15th. He had called me and i said i was going to this bar in our neighborhood, he lived like 4 blocks away from the bar and if he wanted to stop by he could but didnt have to. So he did stop by for a bit. Then 2/17 he took me out to dinner again and asked me out that night.
it can be hectic but its not that bad. Although im sure you know, many times you get 1 big gift or v-day and your bday celebration are combined lol

I am not really sure yet, to be honest. We always acknowledge our dating anniversary but now that we are married I am not sure if we'll actually DO something for it. It;s only 2 weeks after our wedding anniversary will be, so we may just combine them LOL.

yeah...he says he had said hi...and I ignored him...
he thinks that he can be slick and combine the brithday-anniversary celebration....and I sometims let him get away with it..but usually we'll do a dinner and flowers thing for the annviersary and go dancing/clubbing for the b-day...and a present of course...
Also I just noticed that our 'court house' wedding anniversary is on 5-16 (we got married in 05)...one day away from yours....freaky.... We got married in college...and broke...and now we got married after college....and it left us broke....lol...

like youre going to say hello back to everybody who just says hi dh also says the night we met i was ignoring him at first. I always say, what was i gonna do start talking to you or staring at you to get your attention, i dont think so lol
Yeah it makes easier for them to get away with it. BUt then again its understandable, not like we expect to go to dinner on v-day, bday and anniversary.
i just saw what you wrote about the whole courthouse part. That is so weird and funny

No we kind of had an ambiguous dating anniversary anyway...we were friends before we started dating so we just picked our first official date as our dating anniversary. But we were only dating for 4 years before we got married...you have a much longer history and it means more so I say go for it!

Our 5 year dating anniversary was 9/2 we did our tradition of going to the four seasons in nyc and then a broadway show.
I asked him if he wants to just do our wedding anniversary and he said no, that we will celebrate both...He loves four seasons i think that is why he doesnt want to give it up

i have a feeling that we're gonna stop celebrating our August dating anniversary soon. The December wedding will be the REAL day to celebrate. Maybe we'll go out to dinner or something on August one still, just to recognize the day, but i doubt they'll be gifts exchanged.
