to feel cheated out of my birthday

Today is my birthday and a few people have gone to a lot of effort.

Then they have pissed all over it my fighting with each other to the point of storming off in tears, on a number of occasions, bitching about each other to me and having a go at me for various things, including 'ignoring' a text message my phone helpfully didn't deliver for an hour and a half.

I though this was the day I was supposed to feel special and happy, and I won't get another chance til next year. Welcome to the real world eh?

Am now drinking G&T from the can (classy) and will hopefully feel better. Will defo feel better when I see DDs wee face in the morning.

I do sympathise - fir my birthday my dh bought me one book, not even a special one, still in a waterstones bag.
This is after spending 300 quid on some new gadgets for himself the week before

In fairness, for once DP not getting a card or a present on behalf of DD wasn't an issue!! To give him his due he does usually buy lovely presents.

Happy birthday!!!

Hope you're feeling a bit better now.

But surely you have 2 birthdays as a Queen..... So pick another day for your other birthday and make sure the miserable sods treat you like a princess at least on that day to make up for their unreasonable behaviour today.

YANBU - Happy Birthday!

harassed I have finished my gin now so yes I'm feeling a bit better.

Taffy that's a good idea, maybe I should have a day out with my pals who (usually) don't fight with each other.
