How Would You Feel If A Loved One Forgot Your Birthday? by snowden9(m): 6:29pm On Mar 12, 2018 |
So, Yesterday was my birthday but before that, two days to my birthday, i changed my facebook birthday date to another date. I really wanted to know if my close friends knew my date and won't be waiting for any facebook reminder. The result i got though have really made me to ask myself if my 'close friends' are really my close friends. My 'best friend' that I've known for nine years now haven't called me up till today to wish me happy birthday or apologize for not remembering. I remember trying to call him on his birthday and his number wasn't going through, i had to call his girlfriend in order to reach him and his comment when I later got through to him that night was 'It's now you're calling me since morning'. Likewise my female 'bestie' that I've known for 6 years now,she hasn't called either. The list goes on. My dad, in his late 60s though, didn't remember my birthday as well. I had to tell my mum and siblings not to remind him so I'll see if he remembers. At 28,i believe I'm not a kid though to be wanting affection and birthday wishes from my old man but I just feel it's something a parent shouldn't forget. To crown it all, I got a girlfriend this past January and Yea, she forgot my birthday as well after most recently telling her last week Thursday. She called and texted today to apologize but I just told her to give me a week off without calls, texts or visits. Although she didn't agree and was still persistent but that's the verdict I have for her. All in all though, I was and I'm still kinda disappointed with these 'Key' people in my life that I expected not to ever forget such an important day to me but they all did. But still, I don't think it should make me change my mindset towards them even though it hurts. So guys, passing the speech stick to you, 'How would you feel if your loved one forgot your birthday?' 18 Likes 3 Shares

snowden9:Mine was on saturday. Almost everyone didn't remember. What did I do? I moved on. People are busy with their lives and have big issues to think about. You will have other birthdays and other things to celebrate. Yes, it might hurt as you get the feeling that a lot of people don't care about you but they do. It is just that they are too busy to put every date in their heads. Call your best friend and tell him then try to move one. Stay sane sir. 138 Likes 1 Share |

Mynd44:Yup. It didn't put me down that much anyway. It's gonna take something bigger than a forgotten birthday to bring me down but you know what they say, the best kinda love and friendship is when the people you love and care about shows that same love and care to you as well. Thanks bro. 4 Likes |

Last year , I purposely removed my birthday from my timeline and none of my friends or close family members remembered except for my mom and bro ..... Since then I decided not expect much from people cause they have their problems and issues to tackle , though it never stopped me from acknowledging theirs during their day .. Besides it would save you a lot of costs and thank you's at the moment 4 Likes |
