He flat out forgets. My mom, who lives 13 hours away, calls me the day of even if I haven't mentioned it in 3 weeks. But man....I'll come home and wait.....and wait.....and wait. Eventually I just say "so.....my doctor's appointment went fine today" and he'll say "oh that was today?" when I just told him the night before. Or today I got my insect collection back (which I have been working on since MAY) and have been talking about for weeks and had to tell him my grade before he remembered I was getting it back.

WHEN he remembers he will ask but that is once in a blue moon. It's like he is so wrapped up in whatever that he just plain forgets. But I make it a point to listen to things he is talking about and asking him "so how was so and so at work today?"

It's just aggravating because even people at work will ask how things went and I don't live with them or have an intimate relationship with them. Feels like he just doesn't care. And a regular doc appt I wouldn't really care about but this has been months of fiddling with dosages since I was diagnosed with epilepsy. So it's something that is actually important.
