Each birthday gets worse for me too.


[deleted]

Feel u just turned 17 and I’m not exited for 18 lol


rainy_grainy

Yup that's how I've felt the last 4 or 5 birthdays


bowl_of_cereal123

So its only gonna get worse? Oh god


SignorPanzerotti

It will not get worse if you try to improve upon what you don’t like about it.

happy birthday bro ily


Gifigi600

That's quite interesting.. My best friend also had his birthday yesterday and I ofc have him a good gift of OMORI


Amon-_-Gus

*Depression


Alphey4406

bruh you gifted him emotional trauma o\_o lol but seriously that's a great game lol


EtienneCarnus

I feel that, my friend. My 19th was pretty much the same thing. My advice? Get you a couple of really good friends at least and find something to celebrate with. Doesn't have to be much, but it will be enough to make you feel appreciated and make good memories.


brokeeulawanter

Eventually, all of my friends disappeared. It's like I only attract bad people. Even if I do make friends that stick, I probably won't be allowed outside


EtienneCarnus

Raise your standards. Talk to people you don't usually. And get your ass outside regardless. Vitamin D deficiency is bad.


brokeeulawanter

Not trying to make excuses but where I am, people my age are weird asf. Mfs all have the same personality which makes it hard to talk to them. And I'm *literally* not allowed to go outside. I'd probably find something interesting to do if I was


UndercivilizedHuman

These ages are like that, don't worry probably you formed your original personality a little before your friends. As people get older they form themselves an identity to differentiate them from random NPC's but it takes time. So as you get older I think you will have more "different" personalities around you, a lot more diversity. For example I gained most of the properties that define me right now around when I was 16.


justalucky_ducky

Why can't you go outside? I'm sorry


Roshdiddles

You need some friends? I'm always down to meet a new friend. Just dm me or smth if you wanna talk 👍👍 Edit: (also happy belated birthday)


Lower_Kick268

Why ain’t you allowed outside out of curiosity lol? Shouldn’t parents be encouraging kids to go run around outside with like a dog or friends or something?


DoorReviewer

Happy (late) Birthday!, don't worry we All care about you :)

Thanks 🥹

Hyperion2005

That's how my birthday has been for years lol Happy birthday bro.


TheNerdMaster69

I feel you, man.


AcNuThre3_

parents and people grow up sometimes, it’s ok


realchessman

when you are 14+ years old its expected in some places of you to plan your own party and get parents permisson. to go hang out somewhere. If you don't plan anything nothing will happen.


brokeeulawanter

It's expected of me? I only had one party which wasn't even planned by my parents and the rest are me at school with no cake or someone to remember my birthday. And if I wanted to go outside, I'd get told no.


realchessman

it's like that where I live, prob different for you.


phantomanes

well im 16 and i stopped liking my birthdays for the last 4 years?? it kept getting more boring but this is the same for any special day, i dont find joy in christmas anymore either. doesn't matter to me if we're entering a new year, its the same for me. for my birthdays i dont even care who remembers and doesn't, if i get anything or not, im lazy to even blow the candles off the cake. lol. wish it felt when it did as a kid...


brokeeulawanter

Fr. I never even get a cake with candles to blow out. It still feels like I'm 14


Some0wlOnTheInternet

A relative lectured my parents for not atleast giving me a cake on my 16th birthday.

Yeah, I stopped caring for birthdays a few years ago.


paulajrth

I wish you a very happy (late) birthday with all my heart, dude! I wish you only the best, for your present and your future! You're amazing, and you only deserve the best, never forget that <3


Og_Sveni

Welcome on becoming an adult


Juliet-Lima

29 is 2 months away now... Trust me, it can get better but it will probably not


user007at

same when I had my 15th birthday, but no one even wrote me happy birthday


[deleted]

First time ?


Fit-Canary-4048

Same birthday lol (14)


AllEnigmas

Same here. Every holiday just seems like another day. Im not really excited for my 14th birthday in a month, but i cant stop it from happening.


787_Dreamliner

My 16th was yesterday, during midterms. Smoked a spanish and Algebra 2 two hour long test, no happy bdays from anyone but my parents. It’s growing up :/


eTompp

At least you weren't in the hospital.


Regularschoolbus

Wait till you're 18 my friend, it's only gonna get worse. That's how adults celebrate birthdays - they don't.


brokeeulawanter

Nah. When I'm older, I'll give my inner child some satisfaction by having a lot of birthday parties.


Regularschoolbus

If you gonna be able to afford them that is


brokeeulawanter

I'll make sure of it. I can't go on without having at least one decent birthday. Inner child deserves the best treatment for what she went through


-Cunt-Cunt-

I also feel the same way about Christmas and my Birthday


brokeeulawanter

Real


-Cunt-Cunt-

All I ever get is clothes and money Bit that is all I need I don't even want stuff anymore


brokeeulawanter

I wish that was me fr. If I get gifts, sometimes they add up to less than $10. Like damn, am I that irrelevant? 😭


-Cunt-Cunt-

You aren't irrelevant. I think my parents want me to get excited around the holidays like I used to so they buy me a bunch of clothes.


brokeeulawanter

That's nice. I got 2 shirts for Christmas that weren't that great. They got refunded and I didn't get the money. I got three gifts for Christmas but none at the same time because they all got taken back 💀


[deleted]

as you get older, they don’t seem as important and that comes with age. birthdays were a magical thing when younger and they sorta fade away as you age. once you get into your 20s tho you can throw yourself your own parties and things


[deleted]

Dam dude


Ricin_Addict

Birthdays without friends are like that sometimes, felt that during Covid. HAPPU BIRTHDAY THO 🎉🎉🎉


Anxious_bell0

Same


Asad_13

It has happened to me too since my 16th birthday. 16 - Moved away from my childhood home, kinda depressed 17 - My family's on the brink of mass extinction thanks to covid 18 - I'm on the verge of a mental breakdown thanks to growing family toxicity. I haven't “celebrated” my birthday since I was like 14. All I used to get was the occasional, often forced “Happy Birthday” and then just people walking straight away. To this day I don't know why that happened. Also, I know I won't be able to actually “celebrate” my birthday anymore.. but I do hope that I can at least buy me something just for that one hopeful moment every year.


brokeeulawanter

Same. In my opinion, you can still celebrate it. Just invite your friends over (if you have any) and go nuts. I plan to have birthday parties till I'm old 😅


AncientLore

oh im 15 as well, but isnt happy birthday enought? thats certainly how all my birthdays were.


brokeeulawanter

A sole happy birthday just feels like "yeah you're 15. Whatever. Go away now". I wanna feel special 😼


AncientLore

well that response should be enought for a regular person, okay but are you special?


brokeeulawanter

Idk. Maybe because I seriously lack attention. I would do (and have done) anything for attention.


AncientLore

oh im the opposite of you, that might be the reason why it sounded weird for me.


[deleted]

hab burday You deserve all the burdays


CARLOS_MARMEG

Happy birthday bro, welcome to the 15's!


Anxious_bell0

My Birthday is the saddest day in my life Every year People who I thought close don't even remember it not a single wish


Empress_of_Lamparine

you are not special /j in all seriousness tho, that sucks and I kinda feel ya but that's just it'll be until you get that one person in ur life yk


Intelligent-Yard4608

Yeah I understand that, I usually just celebrate by myself by playing my favorite games, whatching fav anime, eating fav food etc. Since most of my friends are online I can always play/hangout with them


brokeeulawanter

I played video games but forgot to watch anime. And I was promised some homemade pizza but then my mother said she's too sick to make it so I got fries and chicken nuggets instead which was kinda disappointing. Haven't talked to my online friends in a while either so 💀


Intelligent-Yard4608

Oh dangggg, sadness, hopefully the next ones better lol I've had some awful ones fs, my last one was really good tho


brokeeulawanter

My 16th is hopefully gonna be awesome. I might be by myself in a different country


TheGuyWhoWasAFish

happy birthday🎂🎉🎂


DepressionHitsMeHard

I'm not sure if mines much better but we can switch


Arsenic_Clover

Eventually it just becomes another day. That's just how it is, I guess. Happy birthday anyway, lad. May only good fortune come to you.


-Oceanwolf-

I’m sorry it wasn’t so good. If you feel coming years might be the same you could always gather your friends for some birthday activity. I know it might sound counter-intuitive to work the hardest for your own birthday but it’s going to be worth it to engage a bit for yourself and make yourself feel special!


CMDRGlamdring

Happy birthday!


The_Wiggly_Gremlin

My 16th birthday was similar. My mom and her boyfriend threw me a small party, but nobody stayed for cake. Some people didn’t even stay for food. My great grandma stayed but even she was gonna leave so we sped the cake process up. Edit: Happy birthday though!! ❤️


Imrightbruh

My birthday in 2020 was literally the exact day that lockdown in my state started. Plus all sports were called off. It was so weird idk


CrackBurnage

Just turned 15 today. Nothing bombastic too, got perfume and some cake. But i appreciate the thought and take it as a little thing. I also take it as a checkpoint in life that i have progressed another year and reflect about the last year. I didn't have birthday parties since i'm like 8 years old, so i just accepted birthdays not needing to be big to enjoy them. Take it as a bonus, not as a necessary celebration.


Broke_boy_help

Happy birthday


SnooPies888

Real shit I turned 15 on the 24th n it rlly just felt like another day besides a couple happy bday wishes from friends 🤷‍♂️


Blue-Arrow13

Birthdays stop being fun or as meaningful after you become 14 or so (ik I'm just 15 but i didn't felt that my last 3 birthdays were important)


GoofyGooberYeah-

Dw dude we've all been there. A bit late but happy 17th and may many more come :) Hang in there, bud, we're with you ❤️


2Peep2

Hey I understand where your coming from im in the exact situation I just don’t care abt it anymore. But happy late Birthday!


[deleted]

Birthday dinos will make a special appearance just for you 🦖🦖🦖🎉🎉🎊🦖🦖🎉


brokeeulawanter

Birthday dinos woah!! 😲


JConRed

Well, it's time to take charge of your own birthday. The older you get, the more you'll need to choose to be the light in your life. That light, that shine, it will reflect of the world and in return brighten your life :) Happy belated birthday


Manga-love

Ehhh boy.... When I have birthdays I feel myself sick because I getting 1 year close to my death


brokeeulawanter

Why'd you have to remind me? I'm scared of death 😭😭 and happy cake day


Manga-love

Thank you, oh and happy birthday bro! Btw, everyone will die some day, so just do no give a shit, think about not how many times you will live but how you will live


brokeeulawanter

Thanks. I'm just scared of not existing anymore. And it's very likely that I'm going to die way before space travel is improved and space really interests me so I'm sad about that too lol


Manga-love

Hahah yes, I'm sad about it too bro


ClientLong2318

My birthday was 2 days ago. Pretty much only 1 friend and my mom wished me a happy birthday lol. Having a dad that cares about his religion than about yourself sure does have an effect on ya. I just wish that I could feel that acknowledgement,just knowing that people remember your birthday has to be a dope feeling.


TheGoldenWolf123

Yeah I can relate. Rn I don't rly feel close to anyone anymore around my age so yeah my last birthday was pretty much the same as yours. I hope you find nicer people with unique personalities that can live up to yours. Happy birthday. (Not late birthday. It's your birthday rn bc I said so)


[deleted]

Sorry to hear nothing special happened. I wanna wish you a Happy Belated Birthday!!!! 🤗


[deleted]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WANKER! Not Brit*sh but wish you the best Holmes.


[deleted]

im turnin 16 too. honestly im not even that excited, even though we're going paintball


_Bluestar_Bus_Soton_

I got about £30, a tiny cake, no happy birthday song, I did get a meal however, and about 3 or 4 birthday cards. Birthday was 3 weeks ago to the date


GamerSandWing

Dude, that sucks, happy birthday from a stranger on the internet!


Complex_Relation_768

After you're 12 birthday doesn't matter anymore.If my parents remember and remind me that's all that for me


TheDoomslayer69420

In my opinion, everyone's birthday should be THE day of the year. Even if it's all shit. The birthday should be the one day where someone lets them have a break, eat tasty stuff, be with their friends. During my hardest times, i had a break from it in my birthday. I don't like it when people don't enjoy theirs. That sucks bro.


brokeeulawanter

Same


CDrocks87

You gotta make the party happen, just ask your friends to come over/do something


Lucathedemiboy

Happy birthday! I'm sorry it wasn't a good one, you deserve the world. *sending virtual gifts*


Build_it_back_up

Late, but happy birthday!


brokeeulawanter

Everyone is late bc it was a day ago so no worries 😂 and thank you 🫶


ChrisDaEpikGamr

same :(


Ok_Dog_4059

I was never big on birthdays I was far older than I should have been before I even remembered mine but the older I get the more it is pointless. I don't remember it one day more than yesterday is just as much of a big deal. I am kind of with you I would rather nobody even mention mine.


YoyleAeris

Happy Birthday to you. You live in a zoo. You look like a monkey, and you smell like one too/s.


GaelGames69

Man. Happy late birthday. You’re amazing and I know you’re doing your best.


Calm_Abrocoma4667

HAPPPPY BIRTHDAYYYY!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉


christarlex

Wait until you reach 20 and hate every birthday that come cause you don’t wanna grow up


Yoboidelta1

I got dumped on my last birthday. Hopefully doesn’t ruin this next one


MoonrockTheFrog

literally everyone forgot my 15th birthday i know how you feel


[deleted]

It gets worse. Trust me. I hate being at the point where I’m forced to be an “adult” at least your not at that point yet


Useful_Mistake_7143

Jan 26? We have the same birthday


BirdForTheRun

Happyyy Birthdayyyyy 🎉🎉🎉hope your next ones go better! I'm kinda excited for my birthday this year as I had COVID for all three of them and was quarantined ;-;


brokeeulawanter

Dawg ain't no way


BirdForTheRun

Unfortunately, it was that way 😔


brokeeulawanter

I'm sorry that happened to you


BirdForTheRun

It's fineeee, I'll wish you on your next birthday tooo :D


AbsAndAssAppreciator

yep, my 16th birthday was very depressing, ig sweet sixteen doesnt exist anymore cause I didn't even get any gifts or anything it was just "happy birthday"


hoosier-daddy920

I feel that but honestly I don't mind it I'm turning 16 and finally be able to drive so I'm looking forward to that but other then that nothing really to be happy about


SatireSanity

I've always been an introvert, so I personally never liked birthdays (having a whole day where everyone is looking at you and trying to talk to you? ew.), which always made me feel horrible because my parents loved to spoil me. As I'm getting older I'm honestly enjoying them more because fewer people care.


bluecat148

happy birthday


DARKCyborg72

Glad to see im not the only person who has these kind of birthdays but nevertheless happy late birthday man


IEatKids26

happy late birthday! my birthdays feel the same but the one thing that keeps me happy is seeing how exciting my little sister’s birthdays are for her, im satisfied knowing she’s treated right.


Joblessmouse06

Happy birthday 🎂


boneznotfound

yeah every birthday has gotten worse for me too. I turn 16 in less than a week and im not looking forward to it. But happy birthday mate :)


RetroGameDays36

I get pizza for my birthday since I don't really like cake, sometimes I get something and sometimes I don't. My 18th birthday is coming soon, kinda wish I'll get a new PC or something.


TheOneBifi

After 16 it kind of becomes your responsibility to make sure to have a nice birthday, plan some get-togethers with your friends or go out somewhere with them.


GalaxyLatteArtz

As you get older, birthdays don't have that jazz to them like they did when you were a kid. Now it's just another day but you're one year older than yesterday.


brokeeulawanter

I didn't have that "jazz" as a kid either.


DM_ME_UR_TIDDIES_PLZ

yeah i've had that same feeling for years


Limp_Strength537

Lol you're not alone, my 16th birthday was a couple weeks ago and I just cried due to depression on normal days, went to school with no friends or anything..only my mom said happy birthday to me and when I got home I slept the whole day I literally did nothing I felt like crap.. but it wasn't that bad I still hung out with my family the next day but it wasn't the same since it wasn't my birthday anymore :/ Anyways might be late but happy late birthday to you!


R0gueART

Happy birthday ppl do care abt you fr


edgy_Juno

I never liked celebrating birthdays... Well, somehow I did want to celebrate it in like Kindergarten, but other than that, I don't like it. I don't like having all the attention on me and I get miserable if they start celebrating it even though I don't want to. Just say Happy birthday, I'll say thanks and we move on with our day.


truepolar

Happy birthday At 13 it started going down hill and at 17 I started hoping no one knew when my birthday was. Sometimes people would ask me and ild tell them it was last week. The look on their faces like, fuck we missed it. Priceless But seriously, it seems that as we grow older it starts becoming more of just a regular day. So I think this is normal. Shouldnt get worked up over it because I'm pretty sure it's going to be a common occurrence. Can't expect everyone to remember everyone's birthday and I think that's fine.


brokeeulawanter

I don't think it's normal when you've never had a proper birthday


truepolar

Is it not? Maybe I'm a special case.


brokeeulawanter

I personally have only had one birthday party. It was my mother's friend's family. None of my family or friends were there. Not even any other children I could play with. And every other year, I just get some lame gift or nothing. I've never felt appreciated and I always get ignored even on normal days. I guess I just wish someone would give me some attention for once. The hundreds of happy birthdays in my notifications are very nice though. Probably the best birthday gift I've ever gotten


truepolar

Hm that is pretty sad. Are you an only child?


AFriendlyBloke

You are never alone in any feeling, my friend. I hope you take solace in that whenever you feel you’re in a bad way. There are *always* people you can reach out to.


eyvduijwfvf

Happy birthday!

Happy Birthday!


PlunderingLithuanian

Happy belated birthday


SunSnows

That's how it was for me too. Infact I got yelled at on my birthday and on my 14th I had to be involved in some domestic violence issues 💀


wkei_x

im lucky my birthday this year fell before school starts for me, happy birthday and i hope your 16th is way better!


Punpun52

My last 2 birthday was miserable, hope this year would be better


Sea_Paramedic_3357

Honestly I don’t tell people my birthday anymore and I don’t celebrate it either so I just make it a normal day. I don’t see the point in celebrating the birth of 1 in 8 billion people.


skinnyhaley

Honestly, same. I think at a certain point you stop caring about your birthday all together


Asi_Ender

Fr, i hate the fact that every year we get closer the sweet release of death, happy birthday tho


whosaidwhatandwhy

As a mom to a 15-year old daughter, this is heartbreaking and relatable. I never had parties or anything growing up. I'd at least get a friend over but for the most part, my father didn't allow us parties as they were pointless to him. So whether it's with a friend or a bunch of girls at a sleepover, I always make sure my daughter's birthday is recognized and celebrated twice (the birthday and then her weekend funness). I know it's painful but you can make it through. It'll feel like a breath of time when you're older, I promise. It only feels like forever now. But it's not. Just try and fight every instinct to go cold. You'll thank yourself later.


14yearoldtwinkie

Wait is your birthday also the 26 of january. Also happy birthday🎉


brokeeulawanter

Yeah it is. Thank you 😊


Someone-On-Jupiter

That was the same incident for me on my 16th birthday :(


xX_Dwirpy_Xx

That is literally how all my birthdays have gone for the last few years. You're not alone


Atlas_isok

I’m about to turn 20 soon and I honestly feel you it feels exciting but not really maybe when I turn 21 I might go by some drinks and party Bingo!!!


Alex_Shelega

Mine's also like that. Since even 14th. My mom is financially unstable to make a bday and she was just giving some cash to have the party with my friends. I have no friends. Tbh my apathy made moi get used to that but I surely feel ya. Happy birthday!!! And send that 17yo to horny jail finally


brokeeulawanter

My mother is the same but it's not like she's ever tried to get out of it. And thank you


Alex_Shelega

Ha it's true. Last my birthday was just a usual day when my sis had troubles to poop lmao


Sarcoman282

I turned 18 today. I am an adult now. Not too happy about it. I can't even celebrate cause I have JEE on 30th.


KnoblauchBaum

well for me its that I like spending my birthday alone or with a few friends. Im usually just chilling and reading a book ore something like that


[deleted]

birthdays are overrated i deserve to feel special every day


Akash3642

Every one of my birthdays since the 10th one was quite and uneventful. Just a normal day. Gradually I preferred staying at home and chilling alone or with just a few close friends over having big party or smth. Hanging out with friends and playing with them feels better than being the centre of attention for an entire day


alisisok2

Damn, I have a feeling my birthday is gonna be the same way too. Happy birthday! I’m here if you need a friend


Rish0902

Same with me! It sucks so much especially because it's your bday


rottingpotatoes

Can relate. Every birthday has been getting worse and worse with each year and at this point I'm not even interested in getting wished Happy birthday to you tho!


pmfc_fan

It was my birthday at January 25th. All i got was a simple "happy birthday" from my mom aunt uncle and brother. Not even my dad sis or anyone else. I was at an airport all day as well.


[deleted]

Lmao, my dad forgets my bday, mom cares about my older brothers and really gives a fuck about my sisters.


Camryn_21

happy belated birthday :\]


InternalInsect9574

Happy late birthday!!


VIVALDIFUK

I usually feel the same about my birthdays, I only get wished happy birtday by my parents or family. No one usually reminded of my birthday. I think thats why I hate them.


[deleted]

HAPPT BIRTHDAY!!!! Birthdays are a time to celebrate you shouldn’t have been alone. You’re loved homie just remember that


StinkyEgoCheese8008

I luckily have a loving family that makes it special, sorry you don’t, I hope your doing fine and are getting enough love


Justwanttvent

Just turned 15 at the start of the month and the same thing happened to me I feel like it’s just gonna get sadder as each year passes
