No. I would say once it gets to the month of my birthday that it's getting near but not before.

Depends where it is. If its a big blow out to a place im not likely to ho back to yes.
Going to Malaga then no.( even though i love Malaga!)

Of course not ! 5 months away is almost half a year.
Would you also say I've just turned 25 when your birthday was 7 months ago?

It nearly your half birthday (anything for a night out round here).

My 50th, I let people know a year earlier (on my 49th) what I was planning

No, but a friend who had a big party for her 40th did start planning it about 6 months before to get the venue she wanted and to give people time to plan, sort childcare etc.

No, but maybe if you were nearly 30, 40, 50, 60 etc. as that's more than 95% of the way since your last big birthday.

Don’t be ridiculous.

Not usually, if it was a big milestone with a holiday or party to plan, maybe.
