When I had friends, they used to do something nice for me, but now that I'm alone, there's no one around to remember it anyway. When my doggie was still around, I would take him out somewhere with me to celebrate. Sometimes I would buy myself a gift, wrap it, and put his name on it. (Yeah, I'm a pathetic spirit). I miss my little Yorkie. He's gone now. I remember my last birthday, I bought a little cake, and gave him a little piece. He mostly licked the frosting. Now, I'm a forgotten soul, alone in my corner like Cinderella, lol.
I love to celebrate my birthday 🎆
I try to celebrate it a little, by doing something I was scared to do before.
Everyone celebrates differently, my ex, for example bought me gifts on his birthday.
I am still using the phone that he bought me on his 24th or 25th birthday.
Everyone’s different, people either try to make ourselves or our loved ones happy on their birthday.
I really like celebrating things so I’ve always made an effort on my birthday. I mean the little things mean everything to me so I don’t necessarily want a party. But spending time with loved ones is nice.

s I had some sad birthdays because I kept thinking about everything I didn't have. I kept beating myself up because I thought that I was "late" in life. Now, I celebrate them because every birthday is a blessing. It's a reminder that I'm still alive and healthy despite of everything I went through.
My birthday is coming up next week.
I'll go out for a nice dinner with my wife if I feel up to it.
That's the way it's been for me for years.
I'm good with the way I celebrate my birthday.
I just turned 47. I try to be as low-key on my birthday as possible. Oddly enough, I do enjoy celebrating other people's birthdays.
I don't celebrate my birthday. For a long time I had issues seeing the point and well not thinking I was worth the effort. A friend helped me to see it was okay to for a few years then she started to completely forget about my birthday for a few years and well me so I'm now back to the not seeing the point.
I don't often remember when it even is.
Eh I hate my birthday but all of my family enjoys celebrating it especially since I have a shared birthday with 4 of my cousins and it's very close to my sister and brothers birthday as well so we celebrate them all at the same time
It gets celebrated - usually on the weekend before with family.
Then my coworkers always do something at work - usually lunch snacks and cake.
My birthday doesn't hurt my feelings but I'm not exactly counting the days either.
My cousin always buys me over $300 worth of food every time it’s my birthday. And before she started giving me gifts, my parents would treat me to a free sushi buffet.
I do but then its Christmas eve so it's just a day of indulgence followed by another
i rarely celebrate. but i can count on one hand how many times i have other than when i was forced to as a kid.
It's just another day. It is nice when my kids send me a happy birthday text, but it's no big deal if they don't.
I wa adopted as a child. Adopted people usually do not celebrate biirthdays.
If my birthday 🎂 falls on a weekday I'll wait until the weekend to celebrate 🍾 with friends and family.
Today is my birthday. I'm celebrating tonight.
My wife and kids help me celebrate but lately the birthdays are staring to really mount up.
I hate it when people make a big deal about me. So I hate celebrating my birthday
Since my birthday is on memorial day weekend, i dont celebrate it. Everyone is just too busy with their families and events
My Dad makes me dinner , kinda makes me fee special.
I never really cared for celebrating my birthday. I like to celebrate other people's.
Once I hit 50 I stopped caring about my birthday. It's just another year closer to my grave
Just another day on the calendar, although some friends like to take me out for dinner.
