Anyone else get pushed into doing what others want for your birthday?

Then they get mad you say no and put a guilt trip on you? And say things like, “Now my head hurts.” And they wonder why I don’t look forward to birthdays.

Do you experience similar?

@nonsensiclesnail I started fighting it when they refused to not sing happy bday(I’ve hated it w/a passion since I was very young). So on a big fam vacation w/my brother’s friends(close to the fam) after they ALL promised me they wouldn’t sing if I let them get a cake, they all came to my room singing w/the cake to put me on the spot 😒 I left them there w/the door shut. I’m tired of accepting it.
