    I promise you'll get more points for just calling and admitting that you weren't paying attention than not doing the wife asked. Trust me on this one.

    but for the life of me I can't remember...calling her would be admitting that i wasn't paying attention.

    Ideas on what it was? ( other than just break up?)

    Shoes.

    It's always shoes.

    Buy some random thing from the store and insist that's what she told her to do. Argue with her so fervently that she begins to doubt herself.

    Focus man, you can do this.

    this could work... do you remember being low on anything? We always need milk & eggs.. and beer.

    I wouldn't assume you weren't listening, just that you didn't bother to write it down and your penance is to have to call me back and look silly :P Call her back, tell her you got busy and forgot (cuz you didn't write it down), and beg her forgiveness. Then bring her flowers.

    Wait a bit and then phone and ask her, say "I was doing a few things before I went to go pick up what you asked but when it came time to go do that I completely blanked on what you asked me to get! What was it?"

    Or something to that effect, that way you can blame time :P

    I'd suggest going to the store and getting skim milk, eggs, healthy bread, and sugar free syrup. Then, you can volunteer to make her french toast for dinner. Light a candle and make it fancy.

    call her back sheepishly and ask what it was again...AND bring roses home with it.

    LOL.. sometimes I think this is what my husband does.. Then he finally admits later that he was just not listening OR forgot. That is probably why we only text things to each other now, you can always go back and see what it was in a text.

    Buy condoms and a bottle of wine.
    Or just man up and call her.

    You're in trouble.

    Call her, find out what it is, then get that PLUS some post-its for next time.


    That MIGHT save you.

    Call her and ask. At least you remembered that she asked you to get SOMETHING. WAY better than arriving empty handed.

    Call and ask if she needs anything else. She will either say "no, just (whatever it was!)" or she will ask for something else and do a re-cap including the original item. There you go, you find out what it was and get bonus points for being extra-considerate!

    Just Say "I'm at the store do we need anything else?" then she says " Nope just the ______ that I called earlier about"

    Just go home. When she asks where the item she wanted you to pick up for her is, just say, "You know I thought about this. There is no reason why you can't get off your lazy *kitten* and go and get it yourself. I'm not your slave. You aren't the boss of me!"

    Been there, done that....Just text her and ask if there is anything else she needs for the house or kitchen and to just text you a list.

    works every time because a woman can always come up with 7 or 8 more things to get

    Go home, make passionate love to her, and when she asked if you got whatever it was tell her you were so busy thinking about her all day and how much you wanted her that it totally slipped your mind.
