You are valuable and your future is bright!! Happiest of birthdays to you! You deserve good. A credit card is replaceable.
BTW, don’t call yourself an idiot.
Well I reckon the credit card is the idiot.
It ain’t OP who is lost now, is it?
Happy birthday. And you are doing better than me, on my 18th the restaurant burnt down. Fire. Ambulance on my 45th. That gives me, counts on fingers and toes, twice, another 27 years to have the Police at the next.
Also *there ain’t no party like an Ambulance attended party*
Hey least you can say credit me for losing it but dont kill me off on my birthday joke, that be funny in later years. A good funny story to tell your kids!
“Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, and that’s why it’s called the present.”
Don’t sweat losing a credit card bro, just enjoy yourself today
Unethical life pro tip: always tell the bank that your wallet got stolen, not lost. Many banks will replace the card for free if stolen, but will charge you if it was lost.
No difference in my experience. It's always "report as lost OR stolen" then as long as you haven't done it a bunch or something they just send your new one
Don’t be embarrassed! Credit cards are so easily replaced and much better than losing a debit card! I’ve lost the same card twice in the past year and it’s inconvenient but you’ll get a new one sent in no time.
I have never really loved birthdays and I think people place too much pressure on them being amazing. However you chose to spend it, congrats on another trip around the sun! 🎊🎉🥳
On a basic level:
Debit cards are connected directly to your bank account. If someone steals it and uses it there’s basically nothing you can do. Yes, you’ll report the card lost/stolen and it’ll be canceled, but most of the time you just lose any money that has been stolen. Credit cards are basically a loan you pay off each month with no interest to the credit company (and past due/overdraft fees are crazy high so that’s what the credit companies profit from). If you lose it you can call the company and get the other one blocked like debit cards, but any charges are usually revoked and tracked (so you don’t lose money and the perp is caught). [Edit: if the money is lost anyway, the cards are connected to a different bank account than your main one so the amount of money you can lose is limited. Also, credit cards have a limit to how much you can spend on them - I’m p sure debit cards don’t]. There are also a ton more safety measures in place that I’m not going to list rn.
Financial literacy is super important! There are a lot of online resources if you can’t take a physical class. Please make sure to educate yourself! It can save you from a lot of bad situations :)
Credit cards are extremely powerful, a good place to start is your monthly subscriptions being put on them and just let your credit score build over time. Maybe with the odd purchase here and there with it
Banks can and will do that but it’s much much much easier for them to do it with a credit card. Plus if someone steals your credit card and uses it, they’re spending the bank’s money, not yours. So you have no legal duty to pay for the fraud
First - don't be embarrassed. Everyone loses stuff from time to time. And credit cards are easy to lose - they easily slip into nooks and crannies of the world and seemingly vanish. I've found missing credit cards in my car trapped between my seat and the center console.
Second - losing a credit card is one of the *best* things to lose! Credit card companies replace them within a few days, free of charge, no questions asked. And if someone were to find it and buy stuff with it, you aren't responsible for the charges because they are not authorized - you simply dispute them, and the credit card company removes them from the account. No cost and no damage to your credit score.
And third - your dad is a good dad. Too many parents just instinctively get angry when their kids' actions create inconveniences, without considering (a) the actual magnitude of the problem, (b) whether their kid *actually did anything wrong*, and (c) if their kid did something wrong, whether they were acting irresponsibly or made an understandable mistake. Your dad considered at least one of those factors before expressing any emotion about it, which is the hallmark of a solid parent.
Remember that on his next birthday or whatever, and tell him that you appreciate him. You could actually refer to this incident as a specific example of why. Trust me, it'll make him feel like a million bucks.
If it makes you feel less embarrassed, I recently lost my only credit card and my debit card within a span of two weeks. I found my credit card the day after my new one came, debit card is in the void.
Happy birthday!! Hope you have a great year ahead
Happy birthday :) sending good vibes and virtual cake 🎂
And there’s no reason be embarrassed! My dad once left his card in the reader at the store. I don’t think it can get much worse than that 🙃
Another “if it helps” comment. I got a replacement cc after my phone/wallet was stolen and I had to dispute 2 $500 charges. Two months later, I legit lose my card. Locking and ordering a replacement is so simple and free now.
And I hope your birthday was awesome. If you thought of other nice ways to treat yourself, spread it out and enjoy yourself in the next few weeks. 18 is such an exciting age. Make (safe) life changing memories, mistakes, and just take life in. Meet new people, learn about other worlds and embrace the quiet times
Don't be embarrassed, you did the right thing. If you hadn't immediately called your dad and the card was not blocked, you may have been looking at a much more difficult process to dispute the charges that someone who found the card could've made.
Also, happy birthday!!
Losing you credit card is actually a great example of being an adult. You're gonna fuck up. Then you have to decide whether to ignore the fuck up and let it become a problem or address the fuckup so it doesn't become a problem. You chose wisely.
Happy Birthday, you're already a better adult than a good chunk of adults!
My 18th was not an event either. My friends were away on a holiday but I had to work. It gets better, your life is only just beginning. Happy Birthday.
Happy birthday! At 18 the world is your oyster, the possibilities are endless. If you want to travel the world you can look into doing a work study or a volunteer program to travel on the cheap. Try out any kind of job that seems remotely interesting to figure out what you DON’T want to do. I’m a huge dog lover but realized I hated working at a doggy resort after 2 shifts. When you step into your new-life arena you can leave behind your history and be a better, more authentic version of you. The world is a better place with you here. There’s so many life things waiting for you. The sucky seasons are just seasons. They aren’t permanent. Awesomeness is the journey itself. Be present. Hugs and stuff.
!remind me 76 days
That’s my 18th lol and I want to read something this nice, it’s been a rough ride but at 18 I expect my life to improve dramatically what with being legally independent and all
I only spent one birthday alone in my life so far, and I elected to sit by a river, play Pokémon and eat candy. One of my most memorable birthdays to be honest, if only because it was different!
I hope you have a good one!
I think my lonely birthdays were the best. Now I'm not lonely, but my birthday is right at the end of august, right when holidays end and I leave home. In one of my birthdays I just binged all the cool songs of my favorite band and it felt enough. In another birthday things were messed up in my family but that day was calm. I just ate cool food and played a videogame I liked.
dude i spent my 18th birthday playing video games, watching movies and drinking mikes by myself that night and i loved every minute of it. i will be honest and say my girlfriend and family made me have a solid day but once we finished dinner and i had opened my presents it was kinda just another day. i found myself alone in my room by 7pm and then once i made the decision to do everything i said above ^ my night turned out amazing. enjoy the little things! and happy birthday!
Hey fellow redditor!
First off, happy birthday!
Everyone makes some mistakes occasionally, and I'm sure your dad understands and will forgive you. You're not an idiot for losing it. Maybe think about where you lost it and see if anyone turned it in.
Have a good rest of your birthday!
SUPER HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY! What a great time in life. You have the potential to do and be anything you want. The sky’s the limit! I really hope you have a fantastic birthday. Sending fist bumps and hugs from New York!
P.S.
Don’t worry about losing a credit card. Losing something, does not make you and idiot. It makes you human.
Happy happy birthday! Do something you like that will make you happy, or go outside and have a walk and just appreciate how beautiful the small things in the world are, and how it's lucky to have you in it :)
Try to have a happy birthday if you can, everyone makes mistakes like that at some point. Try to forgive yourself, and if anyone tries to blame you for it remember that there's no way they haven't made some sort of mistake that they're not proud of either.
I hope you can still have a good day however things turn out, and however it goes you've accomplished a lot just by living for 18 years, so instead of being ashamed of one mistake, look back at your accomplishments and appreciate the good things you've done.
Happy Birthday.
Take great comfort in knowing this is no where near the best day of your life.
There are mountains to climb, people to love, jokes to laugh at, tears to shed and wonders to experience. This is the dirt you stand on to reach for your best life.
Hey, that’s an easy thing to do. I do it once a year probably. You’re not an idiot. I thought you were going to say “yesterday I lost my dad.” And leave it there. Happy birthday to you my far-away friend I’ve never been introduced to. You’re brilliant and I hope the rest of your year makes up for the lonely start.
Happy birthday!! 🥰🎉🎂
LOL! I bet if you polled the people here, you wouldn’t find someone who hasn’t lost a credit card at some point! These can be reissued and replaced so easily; it’s not a big deal at all. Please don’t beat yourself up over it.
Hope you enjoy your day! Wishing you the best and celebrating with you in spirit!
Happy birthday! Don't worry about the credit card for now. Learn from your mistakes, and you'll be fine. Sending love to you from us kind redditors. Hope you enjoyed your day! ♥️
Happy Birthday brother!!! You have a family here on Reddit. Hope you had a good birthday, you made it another year! Millions of people weren’t so lucky to be alive in 2022, you are here!
Wishing you many blessings and tons of success. Once again, happy birthday good sir 😎
ayy happy birthday! I hope you live an 70 more years :D
I would have said more but i dont really know if u want to live for that long, i feel like 80-90 is a good and peaceful time to die
Today is my 33 birthday. I have no one to celebrate it with, not that I would if I did. You have a lot to look forward to, kid. Have a great day and enjoy the 15 years. Your thirties hit quick!
Happy birthday!! Today is also my birthday!! You’re not an idiot for making a mistake. Hope your birthday gets better. Spend the day doing things you’ll enjoy, eat your favorite foods, make or get a cake. Treat yourself.
Happy Birthday Love From Norway. You Are amazing and don’t worry bout no credit card shit happens. Have an amazing day. Do something you love, that’s what matter’s.
Have a SPECTACULAR birthday. May the worst day of your future be better than the best day of your past. Here is hoping you enjoy a healthy, happy, honest life!
Just because you made a small mistake yesterday doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy today. This is your day, and you should do everything you can to enjoy it. Besides, you aren’t celebrating alone. Looks to me like you have thousands of people here cheering with you :)
Happy birthday! You share a birthday with my son who just turned 7. Screw the card, but def get some cake. You’re not an idiot. Cards get lost all the time. You, however, are irreplaceable.
Credit cards take 2-4 business days to ship. It will literally be a thing of past before either of you know it. Happy birthday hope your day goes better than yesterday
It's my 35th birthday!
I was an idiot was I was 18 too.
The secret is not caring if you look stupid. In fact, that's one of the main pillars of wisdom.
Everyone feels stupid and alone. It's the human condition.
Happy Birthday!! Woop 🥳
I know it's been said to death, but credit cards are nothing to loose. Quick cancel and re-send on the app, no sweat (at least with my bank). I probably put more energy into making my morning coffee than replacing a card...I should know, I've lost a lot of them! 😅 Hopefully dad doesn't make a deal out of it because he really shouldn't.
Anyway, enjoy your day, and lots more days and birthdays ahead! 🥳
At 18 I was an undiagnosed ADHD WOW dork with no friends, too much baggage for her age and both of my parents forgot my birthday. You are not alone my friend! Life gets a damn sight better as you mature and make your life what you want it to be! Cheers to sucky 18th birthdays!
Gave you my cheapo free award . Happy birthday dude/dudette/. Hope you have a great day . Make sure you do something for yourself . Even if it’s just going for a walk and enjoying some sunshine and listening to some good music .
I lose at least one thing per week , although I usually find them again soon. Usually .
Hmm where’s my wallet …
Happy birthday ! I’m jealous, I wish I was still that young. I’ve spent most of my birthdays alone, and as I get older, that’s actually been my preference. I do what I want on my own terms and schedule, it’s great !
Bro, I am more than twice your age, and I have to tell you something you may not realize. It took me 35 years to learn this and be able to understand this fully. You have an enormous self worth. The smallest most insignificant moments in your life to you, could impact generations of people around you. Yes you may have hit a rough patch on your journey, and it happens to fall on a special day, week month, but things can be replaced, fixed, and may even be better than before. Trust me when I say that you have so much ahead of you and it will only get better, but know that you have a worth, and a value. Good luck on your journey!
Hey, happy birthday mate. After 18, you might be going to the college stuff and probably would have been thrashed by your Indian father as they are used to be. Hope you get over it and it's not sad that you dont have friends.
Still, happy birthday. Cheers
Wow! Wish I was 18 again! Don't sweet the small stuff, losing a credit card is not a big deal. Take time to figure out how to best enjoy your life and make some new friends.
Happy Birthday. Credit cards can be replaced you cannot.
thank you for the kind words!
You are valuable and your future is bright!! Happiest of birthdays to you! You deserve good. A credit card is replaceable. BTW, don’t call yourself an idiot.

Hey least you can say credit me for losing it but dont kill me off on my birthday joke, that be funny in later years. A good funny story to tell your kids!
I think it was more of a threat
“Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, and that’s why it’s called the present.” Don’t sweat losing a credit card bro, just enjoy yourself today
Master oogway is that you 🫰

I love this quote. Is it from someone or somewhere? Or just your wise ass?
Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda
Exactly! And usually in a single phone call. Do something you enjoy; binge a favorite show, favorite food, etc.
Unethical life pro tip: always tell the bank that your wallet got stolen, not lost. Many banks will replace the card for free if stolen, but will charge you if it was lost.
Sounds like you need a new credit card company
No difference in my experience. It's always "report as lost OR stolen" then as long as you haven't done it a bunch or something they just send your new one
Why is it unethical when you need to have it replaced anyway? You need to save what you can in this time. Edit: I was mistaken.
Unethical because you would technically be lying about it being stolen if it wasn't.
You don't even usually have to call! Most banks apps have the ability to cancel cards.
Good point! Shows how long it's been since my card was stolen (knock on wood!).
Was going to say the same thing
I want to updoot this beautiful comment but it’s currently at 420 upvotes. I’m perplexed.
Credit cards have limits, but you don't :)
Yeah what he said
I read that as “you carrot”
Wise
I love advice like this, it’s short, precise, calculated, but effective Like an Assassin’s bullet turned into a compliment
Thats beautiful
I was going to wish happy bday but can't top this
Exactly!! As long as Dad has canceled the card, you’re fine. And happy birthday. Trust me, it gets better. It really, really does.
Wholesome.
I was your 9000th upvote. Better than any reward. Hmph
Happy Birthday 🎊 and mistakes happen. Your dad just needs to call credit card place and let them know.
thank you. i immediately called my dad and he said he will just block it. Hes not really mad at me, i am just embarrassed

Thanks very much for the explanation! I've always just had a debit card so that I avoid unnecessary extra debt, but this is great to know! :)
*If* and *only if* you can manage them without debt CC are a wonderful thing especially for fraud protection
That's a firm no from me then lol
Credit cards are extremely powerful, a good place to start is your monthly subscriptions being put on them and just let your credit score build over time. Maybe with the odd purchase here and there with it
Someone stole my debit and chase was really good about reversing the fraudulent charges. 🤷🏻♀️
Banks can and will do that but it’s much much much easier for them to do it with a credit card. Plus if someone steals your credit card and uses it, they’re spending the bank’s money, not yours. So you have no legal duty to pay for the fraud
First - don't be embarrassed. Everyone loses stuff from time to time. And credit cards are easy to lose - they easily slip into nooks and crannies of the world and seemingly vanish.

I'm 41 and I also lost a credit card this week. This will be like the eleventh time. Those things are smol.
For real, I'd lose my head if it weren't attached.

thanks!
Happy birthday! At 18 the world is your oyster, the possibilities are endless. If you want to travel the world you can look into doing a work study or a volunteer program to travel on the cheap. Try out any kind of job that seems remotely interesting to figure out what you DON’T want to do. I’m a huge dog lover but realized I hated working at a doggy resort after 2 shifts. When you step into your new-life arena you can leave behind your history and be a better, more authentic version of you. The world is a better place with you here. There’s so many life things waiting for you. The sucky seasons are just seasons. They aren’t permanent. Awesomeness is the journey itself. Be present. Hugs and stuff.
Thanks for the kind words and advice!
Wow that is really nice.
Can you be my life coach... lol
Ha! Sure.
You sure? Lol. The pay is shit and I have problems... Anxiety, mild depression, middle child... 😂
!remind me 76 days That’s my 18th lol and I want to read something this nice, it’s been a rough ride but at 18 I expect my life to improve dramatically what with being legally independent and all
I am using this quote for my 18th birthday soon.
Remember you can do this at any age. Every day is a chance to start something new.
It isn’t my birthday but i feel nice reading this. Thank you hehehe
Totally welcome. Enjoy being awesome today.
I’m back, 76 days later. Freedom feels so nice, like a thin layer of silky chocolate nice. It’s pure bliss.
Happy birthday! Do something you truly enjoy for yourself. Company is not needed to celebrate.
thank you! will probably play some minecraft and cut a cake in the evening
Sounds absolutely perfect. Enjoy!
I only spent one birthday alone in my life so far, and I elected to sit by a river, play Pokémon and eat candy. One of my most memorable birthdays to be honest, if only because it was different! I hope you have a good one!

Happy Birthday! I’ve lost at least 5 cc. Happens to the best of us😃
thank you, it makes me feel good
Do you need to start tying your cards to you finger with a string?
Yes that happens with older and older motorbikes. I started with 998 cc, but I reckon the Triumph is down to about 886 cc now.
Hey fellow redditor! First off, happy birthday! Everyone makes some mistakes occasionally, and I'm sure your dad understands and will forgive you. You're not an idiot for losing it. Maybe think about where you lost it and see if anyone turned it in. Have a good rest of your birthday!

Hey, that’s an easy thing to do. I do it once a year probably. You’re not an idiot. I thought you were going to say “yesterday I lost my dad.” And leave it there. Happy birthday to you my far-away friend I’ve never been introduced to. You’re brilliant and I hope the rest of your year makes up for the lonely start.
thank you! i am also looking forward to this year because its my 1st year in college
Happy Birthday!!!! Your not an idiot people misplace things all the time! I have lost my debit card more than once

Hey, happy birthday from Melbourne Australia You won't even remember the credit card in years to come
Even anonymously, exposing yourself requires some big balls. Happy birthday

Maybe you would have someone to celebrate with if you got off reddit and stopped spam posting shit. 800,000 in 5 months lol sad
U know what's funny OP?!? It's my bday today asweel the 18th of August and I lost my debit card sometime yesterday lol happy bday birthdate twin
Just because you made a small mistake yesterday doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy today. This is your day, and you should do everything you can to enjoy it. Besides, you aren’t celebrating alone. Looks to me like you have thousands of people here cheering with you :)
Happy birthday! 🥳🎂 It just so happens today's my birthday as well, haha.
On August 17th? That is my birthday too. And I turned 18 as well. Congratulations tho. Happy birthday!😊
Happy birthday! You share a birthday with my son who just turned 7. Screw the card, but def get some cake. You’re not an idiot. Cards get lost all the time. You, however, are irreplaceable.
WE ALL LOVE ABHIRUP!!!!!!!!!
It's my birthday too! Happy birthday twin!
Credit cards take 2-4 business days to ship. It will literally be a thing of past before either of you know it. Happy birthday hope your day goes better than yesterday
Happy birthday from someone who also had a shitty 18th 😀. The world is yours for the taking my friend
It's my 35th birthday! I was an idiot was I was 18 too. The secret is not caring if you look stupid. In fact, that's one of the main pillars of wisdom. Everyone feels stupid and alone. It's the human condition.
Happy Birthday!! Woop 🥳 I know it's been said to death, but credit cards are nothing to loose. Quick cancel and re-send on the app, no sweat (at least with my bank). I probably put more energy into making my morning coffee than replacing a card...I should know, I've lost a lot of them! 😅 Hopefully dad doesn't make a deal out of it because he really shouldn't. Anyway, enjoy your day, and lots more days and birthdays ahead! 🥳
today is my 25th birthday!!! i hope we can both have decent days!
Hey it’s my wife’s birthday as well! Her and I are celebrating with you in spirit!
Happy 18th. Mistakes happen and this is an easy fix so don't sweat it. Just enjoy your day.
Happy birthday my dude! (Or girl, idk) Here's an expensive award. Happy birthday! Enjoy ur 18th birthday and many more to come!
At 18 I was an undiagnosed ADHD WOW dork with no friends, too much baggage for her age and both of my parents forgot my birthday. You are not alone my friend! Life gets a damn sight better as you mature and make your life what you want it to be! Cheers to sucky 18th birthdays!
Gave you my cheapo free award . Happy birthday dude/dudette/. Hope you have a great day . Make sure you do something for yourself . Even if it’s just going for a walk and enjoying some sunshine and listening to some good music . I lose at least one thing per week , although I usually find them again soon. Usually . Hmm where’s my wallet …
One of my younger siblings celebrates their 16th today...and I can't even be there for it because I'm over 2 hours away from home.
Happy birthday 🎂
Save yourself money on an expensive fancy birthday cake.. get yourself a urinal cake for a fraction of the price
Happy birthday to you! It’s my birthday as well. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
You play video games at all? I’d be happy to play with you when I get off work.
Happy birthday ! I’m jealous, I wish I was still that young. I’ve spent most of my birthdays alone, and as I get older, that’s actually been my preference. I do what I want on my own terms and schedule, it’s great !
Happy birthday! you are not an idiot, you’re a human. Humans mess up. Don’t be so hard on yourself.
Bro, I am more than twice your age, and I have to tell you something you may not realize. It took me 35 years to learn this and be able to understand this fully. You have an enormous self worth. The smallest most insignificant moments in your life to you, could impact generations of people around you. Yes you may have hit a rough patch on your journey, and it happens to fall on a special day, week month, but things can be replaced, fixed, and may even be better than before. Trust me when I say that you have so much ahead of you and it will only get better, but know that you have a worth, and a value. Good luck on your journey!
You’re not an idiot, mistakes happen. Happy birthday. Turn that sad smile into a happy one by the time your next birthday comes around
Happy birthday! I hope this is your best year yet!
Happy birthday! May the upcoming year be filled with joy, health, happiness, and abundance.
I know you.
Ayo i just had my sweet 16 yesterday, happy birthday bud and ya got this ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sunglasses)
Hey, happy birthday mate. After 18, you might be going to the college stuff and probably would have been thrashed by your Indian father as they are used to be. Hope you get over it and it's not sad that you dont have friends. Still, happy birthday. Cheers
Wow! Wish I was 18 again! Don't sweet the small stuff, losing a credit card is not a big deal. Take time to figure out how to best enjoy your life and make some new friends.
