[quote=Anonymous]The post about the MIL forgetting a person's birthday is the impetus for this thread, but I wonder this often -- is there a certain personality type that is REALLY into adult birthdays? I have a couple of friends who think their own or their spouse's birthday is a really big deal. Like, when they are telling a story, they might say something like, "Traffic was horrible this morning, so I was late to work. AND IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY! I can't believe that happened to me on my birthday." Or they take their birthday off work every year. And these are sometimes the same moms who make a huge deal out of the teacher's birthdays at school. No, I don't need to contribute to a class gift for a 35 year old woman's birthday. It all strikes me as very odd. Is it just a difference in how important adult birthdays were in their family of origin? Or is there a personality type that's really into adult birthdays? [/quote]
