Another birthday one

[JustCheckingItsMine]

Had a milestone sort of birthday today. Someone I love very much arranged a surprise meal and it was just wonderful, I loved it.
then I came home and cried because so many people I thought I was close to didn’t bother to come, people I do a lot for and thought I was close to.
I really did realise I'm not important to people I thought i was, and it’s a really crappy feeling

I’m sorry it’s always so hurtful when you realise that people don’t value you as much as you do Them.

it sounds like you do have some people who care very much and will go ten extra mile for you. from experience concentrating on those relationships is the best thing. The ones that value you are the ones worth your time. Just let the other friendships or relationships fade.

Thanks @Scoundrella I know you’re right and I will try to move on with gratitude
