Ideas for my birthday

3 replies

Toomuch44 · 04/05/2024 15:03

My birthday is coming up and I've had three people ask me for ideas.

I don't need/want anything like perfume, ornaments, and can't think of anything I desperately want or need. I could possibly order a t-shirt for my DM to get me.

I like reading (although have nine books lined up to read,) walking, exercise class (think I have everything I need for that), like horses and horse racing, cats.

Ideas welcome, please.

Sounds like me, my birthday is next month and I don't want anything
Ideas I've given people who insist I must want something

  • Anxiety bookshelf
  • Starbucks gift card
  • Nice bottle of rum
  • Houseplant

Maybe you could suggest a day at the races type event package, a bookmark, something horse or cat related....

I don't need or want anything, I buy what I want when I need it. My friends and family save the money on a present and we do something together, meal, movie, theatre. Day out.

Same here @longdistanceclaraclara.

If you have to tell them what to buy, it's not a present so better to stop with adding to everyone's mental load exchanging stuff no-one wants or needs.

Just meet up for food/drinks/whatever.
