I know in the grand scale of things this is unimportant but I can't help but feel a bit.....hurt really.
My friend, who I actually saw on my birthday, which was Monday, didn't get me a card.
I jsu think it's really odd. I see her a lot. Not only did she know as I had said to her before hand, then on the actual day I said something about it, and then I picked out some bracelets she had to sell and said 'oh I'll treat myself for my birthday seeing as how D didn't get me a present'. And I asked her out for drinks for my birthday. I don't care that she didn't get me a gift, even thought I got her a gift voucher for a massage and a bunch of flowers as well as a nice card for her a few months back.
Then another friend, who again knew it was my birthday and not only did I get her a card and a gift, I joined her for a really expensive meal out which cost me a fortune, didn't bother sendong me a card.
I just feel a bit sad about it really.
My 2 bestest mates who were with me at the big chill gave me a card but didn't have gufts for me yet.
D didn't get me a present at all.
My MIL and SIL have forgotten, no cards, nothing.
So yeah I'mm feeling sorry for myself.
I feel like I want to say to the first friend 'why did you not get me a card' but it would mean a phone call to do so as she's going to Kent for 3 weeks on Sat morning and I have no plans to see her and it seems pathetic. I should just leave it and get over it, but can't understand why she, and others, have just not bothered at all.
I should just shape up and realise that at 35 no-one bothers about you anymore and it's all about your kids right????
