[quote=Anonymous]OP ignore the silly trolls on here giving you a hard time. Just because everyone has become self absorbed, addicted to their phones and super busy doesn’t mean that any of us are better off if important moments in our lives are ignored. We are social beings and we deserve and need to feel loved and appreciated. That being said, I think by our age you have to understand that your friends will happily show up for a birthday dinner or party to celebrate you but it isn’t realistic to expect they will remember your birthday or throw the party for you. Even if you have done that for them. It just isn’t most people’s forte. It doesn’t mean people care about you less. It is just what they are capable of. If it’s important to you to be seen and celebrated (and there is nothing wrong with that) then organize your own bday party. People do this all the time! Also, I suspect there is some anger here towards your DH and of course he is not just anyone, he should do better. He knows you well enough by now, or should, so he should have known you would enjoy feeling special on your bday and he should have made some effort. No gifts or cards is totally on him and whatever children you may have. I would have a very direct conversation with him about what you need to feel loved. If you already have told him numerous times and he doesn’t care then it’s up to you what to do with that but at the very least you should spend some money if you can afford it to do something special for yourself. Book a massage or even better a weekend in NYC or something like that’s. Happy birthday![/quote]
