Getting older sucks. [I Hate Birthdays]

I haven't had a good birthday in years. Mostly because of my ex husband who never gave a damn, and who continues to do stuff to ruin my birthday. Other than that it is just another day, I usually work, nothing exciting to do. I dont get how others still love their birthdays... i just wish mine would be special as it is fast approaching. :(

It sounds as if the problem is the people around you, not getting older.

Do you have a friend you could spend your birthday with?

@DrWatson I unfortunately lost my two best friends to drug addiction and I had to step away. She is on pills all the time and her husband (my other best friend) is busy trying to take care of her. I have to work, bf has to work late. It will go by just like another day.

@KickfaceK I had a period of time, in my 20's, where no one around me knew about my birthday and I felt ignored. It was bad, but the good news is that things can get better with time.

Meanwhile, allow me to wish you a happy birthday, a bit early! 🎉
