Would This Hurt You Too?

Question

Hi guyzz, today was my birthday and honestly, I spent the whole day wondering what one particular person would do for me. 🥹

At 12, my best friend was the first one to call me. We talked for over an hour, while I kept checking my phone, wondering if he had wished me yet. He hadn’t.

Turns out, he was awake and playing a game because of its new update. 😭 I didn’t want him to feel guilty, so I casually told him it was my birthday when he realised it around 1:30 AM.

He apologised, and I do understand his reason. But now it’s morning, and I’ve called twice because I just wanted to spend some time with him. He’s still sleeping, even though we planned to watch a movie together.

Maybe I’m being dramatic, maybe I just expected a little more from the person I was most excited to hear from. :')

Happy happy birthday Virgo girl I think Virgos are badass they are very deep they're very smart they're very wise and very independent and they think too much

And I really apologize because I tried to send you something sexy I mean hot and sexy

But when the mailman got there he told me to get out of the mailboxes and get the damn stamps off my ass now

So I apologize about the gift it didn't get sent

You know I don't even know what to say except for probably 7 maybe eight out of 10 boyfriends don't get their girlfriend a gift because they're selfish they're broke they will always have an excuse

On the other hand if it was his birthday you would have a nice gift for him it is Meaningful because you want to be that person you want to show your appreciation and it sucks that a guy he's a forgets or he just doesn't care or maybe he has no money I don't know but it's totally wrong

I can't tell you what to do but a boyfriend that truly loves you respects you want you there's no way in this world he's going to forget it's your birthday and if he did I guarantee it he would have a gift within 20 minutes to the next day and he would never ever let it happen again

But you have to let it go otherwise it's going to eat at you for a couple weeks and it breaks your heart so I mean I understand that but you have to let it go and see if next year he does something for you if you guys are still together then

I know you probably love him but I'm going to have to say but I feel and I think he does more than that I think he breaks your heart in a lot of different ways

Don't let it change you just learn something from it it's his last really anyway happy birthday Virgo girl I'll try to remember and send you that gift again next year did you at least have some cake you have to have some cake

If it was my girlfriend , then yes I would be hurt if she didn’t really acknowledge it whatsoever, and in return , I wouldn’t make a big deal about her birthday either, when it came , and she probably wouldn’t be my girlfriend for long , it’s one thing if a partner forgets it’s your birthday ,! but worse if they don’t acknowledge it. That to me shows someone’s true character of who they truly are as a person , and definitely not someone i would want to spend the rest of my life with

It all depends what kind of relation you have with that person. Somehow, I get the feeling that you may possibly have a crush on him and that you expect that this crush is being reciprocated or that he is your best friend or at least a very good friend.

Expecting something like a birthday wish at midnight of your birth date is a bit far fetched but in the morning hours would be something that I would expect from someone I care for.

Putting you in second place behind a computer game is indeed something that would lead me to believe that I don't have the right priority in the mind of that person.

Happy birthday!

Yes. My husband does it to me every year and it hurts every time. He just doesn’t care about birthdays. He doesn’t say anything to his friends and family either unless they mention it’s their birthday.

you can do this, let him know that you wanted to have him let you know that you were hoping that they were thinking about you on your birthday. That it hurt your feelings that it was an oversight. Also let him know that you were excited to hear from him and when you didn't it really made you feel bad. I he apologizes and tries to make up for it, let it go, don't keep harping on it. Once he knows how you feel, let him make the next move. If he makes a good move, good, if he makes a bad move, then that tells a lot about that person

Goes to show you, you can't count on others for your happiness. If they won't come to you, go to them. Call them and say, "Hey, it's my birthday. Let's go to the mall and then out to dinner to celebrate." 😘 If they don't have time for that then they are not really a friend and could care less about you. 😯😔

1:30 AM is a little soon to worry about birthday wishes. Maybe he wanted to send a longer heart felt message later in the day when he knew you were awake. But you ruined it by bothering him. Let him wake up and go about his day lmfao. He will see you later if you have plans, damn lol.

First happy birthday, and second I get the update stuff cause I play too but I also get your point of view when it comes to expecting more from him mostly on this specific day, if you really want to make a better situation out of this ask him if he can teach you how to play that game, this is a really good way I believe can help, since he has a passion for the game, he might find a good excitement from you wanting to play and im he shouldn't reject the opportunity to spend time with you on this.

The only people who acknowledge my birthday are my parents. Even when I had a much more lively social life in high school, no one really cared about each other's birthdays. It might be guy thing. However, this guy is your boyfriend. He absolutely shouldn't have forgotten. My crushes birthday is printed into my brain.

I would be hurt if someone I was in a serious relationship failed to wish me a happy birthday and then not show up for a planned get together. I would say that is two strikes against him. One more and he's out.
By the way, happy birthday!!!

This guy really your boyfriend or just an idiot you talk to on the phone or the computer? When was the last time you saw him in person and why did he not hang out with you on your birthday if he’s actually your boyfriend?

Happy Birthday!  the only question I'm gonna ask is, are you happy in your relationship?

AngryCarl3 · Answer

That's a completely one-sided relationship. It's not good! On the plus side you can ghost him and he won't even notice.

Alex-Snow · Answer

Is this guy your boyfriend or friends with benefits? How old is he? Maybe he is not as interested in you as you would like. Your thoughts?

And the only place to share this is here? You will need to 'adjust' a few things.

He’s a dedicated gamer. Unfortunately sometimes guys like that put gaming over relationships.
