Just that really, I've always been really big into birthdays and love a fuss being made to celebrate. I'm the same with others, love to make their day special.
However I turned 40 a couple of months ago and all I got was a card with some cash through the door the day before my birthday at 6am on the Sunday. They didn't even knock on the door.
Both my mum and dad text me on the day to wish me happy birthday but no presents or offer to take me out. (When it was dhs birthday they came round with wrapped gifts etc)
I was a little upset so asked if they'd like to take me out for a meal, they said yes but then never mentioned it again.
What's made it worse is that I saw on FB that they had taken out a girl for a posh meal this week as she's just turned 30. Balloons and presents - the lot! They've only known her 3 years so I found it quite upsetting.
Aibu?

To be a bit upset that my parents didn't make a fuss of my 40th?
