I can not believe I forgot my Anniversary.
My wife is angry and I don't know what to say. My anniversary was yesterday and I had no clue!

Argh! That's tough! Have you been able to come from a place of authentic apology? It can be easy to be defensive in those situations, which of course only makes it worse!

What's your approach? Does humor ever work....? You know, like wearing a dunce cap while holding a huge bouquet of flowers? Or going John Cusack and holding a boombox overhead, playing "your" song?
