So I tried to keep an opened mind this year about my birthday. In general I really hate my birthday. Not because I am upset I lived another year, I am glad I am still here. Not because I am unhappy with my life, I am actually doing really well. I have a great girlfriend, wonderful family and caring friends. So you may be confused as to why I hate this day.
It has been this way as long as I can remember. I dread this day for the simple fact that I seem to have friends coming out of the woodwork. I feel very special when my close friends and family do special things for me. But when this person I met in passing that I haven't talked to in 3 years tells me happy birthday, I can't even understand it. Why? Its not going to hurt my feelings, if you don't. I also hate when people feel obligated to tell me happy birthday. That is why I never tell people.
So over all a birthday is just another day, I did nothing special to be celebrated. Wait and celebrate me for a promotion, a graduation, or on some random day just for fun. Lets get over the birthday thing though.
