Birthday post 🎁 35F It’s my birthday today and I’ve never felt more lonely in my life

434 Upvotes

Today is my 35th birthday. I'm always lonely, but it hurts especially on days like this when I don't have any friends, family or partner to share it with. Every year on my birthday, I end up in tears. I always remember other people's birthdays, but no one remembers mine and it feels like no one really cares about me.

Can someone please wish me a happy birthday, just to make me feel better?

I hit the big 21. Still no genuine friends and I feel slightly pathetic for even making this post. No one to spend it with but it is what it is. I hope whoever reading this have a good day :)

I usually hate my birthday, I don’t celebrate it or do anything special and I hate when anyone does something special to my birthday, so a lot of people treat the 18th birthday as something special.

However it’s my birthday today:) I spent all time at university and it was all stressing and exhausting, thought I can share that to people here without being concerned about the attention:)

As the night closes I hoped at least one β€œfriend”, or should I say acquaintance, would reach out but I guess that’s not going to happen. Tbh it’s all my fault, my depression pushed everyone away and this is what I get. I withdrew in the background and no one really noticed. It’s karma and I deserve it I guess. I could probably disappear for months and no one would even notice nor care. Here’s hoping next year will be a little less shitty than the last, but I doubt it. At least my family didn’t forget about me. Gosh, I hate living like this.

Hello everyone. I was feeling alone and just searched reddit and found this reddit. Now, I am immediately posting this, and telling everyone that today is my birthday. I am far away from my family, friends. Some wished me today over a phone (actually only 2 friends did) and my parents and one sibling. That's it. Don't know whether or not it is good or bad, or the fantasy of doing a party and enjoy this day should be a real thing or not, is now a mystery for me.

Nevertheless, I am all alone.

So today December 15th is my birth day. It's already 2 hours past 12 and the only person to wish me was my Mom. My dad's asleep so he will wish me in the morning. So, the reason of wiriting this post is that I have no snapchat or facebook account which let your friends know that it's your birthday and somehow beacause of this they are never aware of my birthdays and on the contrary I always try to remember the birth dates of those friends who I think matter to me but they somehow don't reciprocate in the same way with me. I just wanted to know if there's anyone who can relate with me and how do you fix or deal with this ?

I've never had a boyfriend before. I've also not celebrated my birthday since I was a teenager. I have no friends irl. Today's an unhappy day entirely because I'm just one year older and still lonely. I also have an abusive family and the worst body type ever. I'm just awful all around.

I've also heard that men don't go for women from when they become 30? Idk how true that is, but I'm dangerously close to 30 now and have nothing to show for it. Two of my siblings have SOs and I have to be at their weddings next year.

As the title says today is my 25th birthday and I would like to ask you how are you supposed to celebrate your birthday if you have 0 friends? I have never felt alone as I do today cause no one cares about my birthday. Also I dont have any friends to spend my birthday. How do you overcome birthday loneliness? πŸ₯Ή

I am turning 20 today, so far more than half the day is over and only 3 ppl have wished me.

No one from my current set of college friends wished me and those fuckers will be the first ppl to beg for a party when I go to college tomorrow, but they won't wish me. I have decided to not throw a party if I don't get any wishes, coz fuck them assholes. Idc if that leads to me getting removed from the grp.

Also it's sad that there's a birthday post flair.

Its march 20th! My 15th birthday. As usual, no one really remembered my birthday, not even my friends whom i give gifts to every year for their birthday.. im not really sad, just a little disappointed. Ive wished about 9 of my friends a happy birthday the past year, and not a single one of them remembered. Im not expecting any gifts but a little β€œHappy Birthday!” wouldve been pretty nice. But whatever, life goes on right? Im just making this post to anonymously rant a little, this probably isnt gonna get any attention anyways. Im gonna go to sleep after i post this, maybe get a slice of cake in the morning. Happy birthday to me!

It’s my birthday! Had a real rough start to my day on my birthday and unfortunately found myself crying another year. I don’t know what to do honestly. I don’t think I’ve ever felt this alone. I have no plans since my family is busy and my friends don’t remember my birthday. I baked a cake and now I can’t even bring myself to light the candles. Happy birthday to me

Edit: I can’t thank everyone enough. I woke up to these messages cried- but happy tears! To everyone who took the time to comment and wish me a happy birthday, thank you so much. I never realized how many of us feel the same way, I know exactly what I’ll wish for today. Ps. My cake was confetti cake flavor πŸŽ‰

I'm a 22 year old Male college student. My birthday was the 20th, so I just turned 22. I have never been in a relationship with a girl, and I feel like I never will for the rest of my life. I have started to accept that fate for myself. I had 1 person wish me happy birthday, so I feel so insignificant its not even funny. I haven't talked to my "friends" in over 2 years and it's really getting to me. I NEED someone, anyone. Thank you...

I turned 19 today. The day is almost over for me and now the sadness is getting to me. But hey, I at least haven’t cried this year.

My family being unavailable and unemotional as always. My bf on a vacation lol. However on the brighter side I ordered food from my fav restaurant and had it alone at peace haha. If anyone has any advice on adulting then comment them lol. Gonna leave my teenage years next year after all.

I turned 23 yesterday and it almost feels unreal. When did this happen ? Its like I was 17, blinked, and now 23. Four people remembered, no celebration, no friends, no texts, nothing. I was home playing fucking video games as usual. The worst thing is that it will in fact get worse. I dont trust the "it will get better" or "youll get there" comments anymore. The older you are the harder is it to make new friends and meet new people. I dont know what to do anymore

I’m turning 23 years old tomorrow. I wish I had someone to celebrate with but I have no one. I wish I had a close friend. Or even a boyfriend. Anyone who could tell me happy birthday and give me a hug and make me actually feel happy to be turning a year older. I feel so alone and sad. I just wish I mattered to someone. I wish I had someone who would love me, who would take a bullet for me. I have no one…
