IMHO, it’s a guy thing to act like things that matter a lot to us don’t matter but we/I have a macho image to maintain. We count on you knowing what going on with us. “Why should I have to tell you I love you/I’m sorry when you should already know.” Looking back, this attitude only worked so long. Things just go on in our minds and we forget stuff. Even important stuff.

I never had a situation like this happen where I broke a sex date. In fact, I’ve never had a sex date with my wife. It just happened and then it stopped because of my anger towards her. I would give my left arm for a sex date with her now. I would give the same are for a hug. But alas, it will take time to pull down the walls I caused her to put up because of my lack of intimacy for a year.

As stated before, let this one slide and let him know you let it slide.
