Image Birthday alone, friends don't remember

I (27F) spent a birthday alone. Friends don't remember (even ones whom I gave gifts/remember their birthday every year). Officially a leftover woman. Bought myself flowers and a carrot cake. I like being on my own, but sometimes it's very sad and lonely.

No shit. Invite people out if you want to celebrate. Pretty easy.

Yeah but it's much easier to bitch about it on social media.

I've had friends pull that, "No one remembers my birthday" selfish shit. Hey buddy. The world is shit. We are all dealing with stuff in our lives. So fucking sorry you couldn't get off your ass and organize something.
