i also hate birthdays but i have the opposite problem. it’s more like “aren’t people supposed to be telling me happy birthday and talking to me today?” and i … don’t get that lol. so every year is just another reminder that on the one day of the year that people can show appreciation for me or have a free pass to just say anything nice to me at all, it just doesn’t really happen 🥲😂

Damn. You summed it up perfectly. I’ve never really been able to express why I didn’t like my birthday.

i just turned 28 so i’ve had a lot of birthdays over the last decade to help me work on putting the feeling into words lol. 🥲 thankfully i have a wonderful partner that helped me make up for some of the bad ones this year. we went ice skating bc when i turned 21, i’d invited a good handful of coworkers in a group chat if they’d come to open skate at any point during the 2hours and… nobody showed!!!! I skated alone for 2 hours on my 21st staring at the door on every lap 😅
