Hurt by my own birthday?

so yesterday was my birthday. I turned 20. I usually never like my birthday. It was fine, i went to dinner with my family and my mom made me a cake. But isn't everyone supposed to remember you that day? you know like call you text you, at least leave a comment on ur myspace? Yesterday just made me feel like no one really cared about my birthday, which makes me think no one really cares about me. (minus the ones who were there)

I guess what my question is, how do i know if ppl just dont care about my birthday because i dont? or

How am i to react when my "friends" forgot my birthday? Do i call them out on it?

Am I over reacting?

No your absolutely not over reacting. That's how I might feel too if I was in your position. Well, everyone should be able to remember your birthday...but sometimes a couple of people do forget because their busy with thier work or whatever. But I do agree with you they should've atleast called, texted or commented you on myspace. But I defiently say that you shouldn't ruin your friendship with people because of this. What I would do is do the same thing to them. But that wouldn't be the mature thing to do. So maybe just forget this and remind them that it was your birthday and then see what they say. I'm not exactly sure I helped you out here.. But I tried my best. And I wish you good luck with this. =]

If you don't bring up your birthday much, and if you don't like it, then all you are doing is hurting yourself. They don't think you like your birthday anyway even if they actually do know it, so they won't bother you about it.

i have been in the same situation over and over again.

well not all the peoples you know will remember you.

but maybe they don't know when is your birthday.so make sure they know the date of your birthday.

if they wont remember you then you can blame the closest persons to you such as your boyfriend or you girlfriend.

you can putt a comment on my space that it is your birthday.....

by the way happy birthday

Are you the type that always remembers other people's birthdays? What I mean to say is, I'm sure there is a birthday you've forgotten once in a while. As an adult I can say that in the real world, if you want to celebrate your birthday with friends, you need to remind them that it is coming up and that you would like to celebrate your birthday with them. Don't use your birthday as an excuse to wallow in self pity. Sure it would be great if everyone remembered your birthday and thought of you first thing in the morning and called and texted you but in the real world if you want something to happen you have to take charge.

Hurt by my own birthday?

My birthday was in february and the exact same thing happened to me, when i got to school no-one said happy birthday, no-one cared and to be honest, i just got over it, i am still waiting for a card from one of my best friends (who we threw a supprise b-day party for), she says she left it at home? (yah right) i do ask her about it, and she doesn't even feel shamed that it's rude! So i figure, fine, don't expect anything next year :)

Don't worry...be happy :))

Hope this helps xx
