It is not a dumb question. Though I have no idea what happened between you two, I think it is sweet of you to still think of wishing her happy birthday. Whether or not you should text her will really depend on the severity of your fight with her so that she will not misconstrue the well wishes.

+1 yYou've only been in a fight for a week. It'll most likely blow over. And if it does, you're going to want to have wished her happy birthday. I'd do it because if you become friends again and you don't wish her a happy birthday then you will regret it

However, If you are Missing her, Want to be Friends Again, Let her Know…. She still has a Friend. xx01 Reply
It’s her birthday. Sending a text is literally the least you could do to greet someone on their day. Who knows, maybe you two will begin to talk again if she hears from you?

+1 yAre you guys squabbling over something meaningful?
Or are you both destroying friendship over something meaningless?
If meaningless, say happy birthday and also write why there is a point to repair your friendship... Stubbornness isn't a positive thing at times like these 😬00 Reply
+1 yYes you should. Just keep it simple/nothing more than "happy birthday" and keep it special by only doing the same thing for Christmas... it keeps the communication channels open for possible future reconciliation.

Say it if you care about her still, when y'all are older and if you're still friends you'll laugh about it but even a simple thing like happy birthday might make her think of you

+1 yAssuming you want to reconcile then yes. Break the ice. Good friends are difficult to find so whatever the fight was about, put it behind you and make it up

+1 yStop being silly and say Happy Birthday already
You had a fight fair enough, but it's their birthday. You don't have to have a conversation but a simple happy birthday would be nice10 ReplyI would say happy birthday. Let's say that you didn't text her Happy Birthday, then she might have another argument to fight over. Good luck with everything :) Friendships can be difficult some times.

+1 ySay happy birthday. Why not? Might show that you still care about her?
00 ReplyWhy not just apologize and bite the bullet. Unless she did something really wrong what's the point of throwing a friendship over a petty squabble.
00 ReplyIt depends if you wanna keep your relationship with her. If you wanna stay in the fight, then don't.

00 Reply
+1 yI wouldn't. But I also hold grudges and things like these.
00 ReplyYour intention is to be nice right? So who cares how she reacts. What matters is why you're texting her and not if she's going to appreciate it
00 Reply
+1 yWell in my opinion, it all depends on how things broke off, like if you agreed to just be friends then id say yes go right a head, but if it wasn't a clean cut break up id say maybe avoid it because you won't want to give the wrong vibe
00 ReplyIf u do text her it could end your argument and prove that u are a good friend for remembering but if you dont you would probably be seen as stubborn or she could think you forgot and get upset. I would recommend wishing her a happy bday
