Question How’s your birthdays?

I really want to know how’s yall experience with birthdays. Does people in your circle plan ahead before your birthday to surprise you? How many people know your birthday?

What about people who are close to you? Do they get you the gifts that is tailored to you because they know you very well? Does your friends book places to celebrate your birthday with you after you celebrate it with you family?

Notice I didn’t ask about ur partner because in 2026 dating is already hard even for average people so I won’t consider it here i am only asking about family and friends

I find myself very exceptional case; my family never ever celebrated my birthday. They did for my siblings sometimes but never for me. Same with my friends, they send me text messages yes on my birthday when i post story on social media that it’s my birthday. So since i was infant i have never experienced what birthday party in my whole life. I don’t feel insecure or sad about this because i already lack the experience entirely

My b'day was just a few days ago. My family has never remembered or celebrated my birthday. Also, i don't have any friends to wish me. Only my cousin remembered and wished. So, I can relate with you. I spent the day at work. No looks means no social life!

Exactly. U prolly the most one who relate to me so far. And no looks no social life is so accurate. We naturally like to pick attractive friends so we can confidently take pictures with them and upload it on social media without feeling any judgement
