The guy didn't say happy birthday

I just turned 36 the other day. We have been living with a young man for two years. He forgot that it was my birthday and didn’t congratulate me. The closer this day got, the more I realized that he simply didn’t remember, and I forbade everyone from congratulating me, hoping until the last that he still remembered.

I think he simply doesn't care about me. He does a lot of things, takes care of all the household chores, and always stands up for me. But he doesn't remember my phone number by heart, or even my birthday. I’m generally silent about gifts.

Either there is something wrong with me or I really am taking someone else’s place in his life. I don’t want to live as an unloved woman, although I love him myself. He says he needs to sign soon. Is it worth being a transit point? And this is not resentment speaking to me.
