Am I really that forgettable?

So it’s now officially my birthday today and I’m 33 and it seems to my family it’s nothing worth mentioning. So apparently I’ll be spending it alone tonight as my parents will not be home for dinner as it seems work is more important. Also not celebrated my birthday in a quite a while with friends as the very little friends I do have are always to busy as I’ve noticed it gets like that even from the start of December as I like to say as Christmas is in the same month so I call it the silly season month. So I guess I’ll be spending it alone and will end up doing some emotional eating as I’m an emotional eater and will turn to some fattening comfort food.

Hello Dear mocha delight..

I want to wish you a very happy Birthday...and wish you all the good wishes I can...

I’m deeply sorry that your parents or friends haven’t acknowledged your birthday...that’s really very sad...

Its your birthday tonight sweetheart... Maybe buy yourself a cake put candles on it, make a wish then blow them out...I know how lonely birthdays can be when no family or friends are their to celebrate it with you...It’s been 7years that I have been alone on my birthday..I used to cry about being alone on my birthday, Christmas and other special days..eat junk food..and be sad...

Now I will buy or make a cake..put candles on it, blow them out with a wish...cut me a piece, and add it to a bowl of ice cream..and freeze the rest of the cake for another time, when I’m feeling down and lonely....My 60th Birthday was hard as to me it’s was milestone and I spent it on my own..sad and deflated...that’s when I decided that I will not be sad on my birthday any more..it’s my special day..the day I was born...and it’s a worthy day to celebrate with or without family....

We can celebrate your birthday here beautiful mocha delight...I will make you a cake and drop it in to our BB cafe and decorate the common room..if you would like to call in this evening...we can join you on your special day.....only if you want to.....but I hope you do...

Sending you the best birthday wishes with my love and care and a warm comforting hug..

Grandy..

hi Mocha not only did I not forget your birthday but I knew you were turning 33 as you mentioned it on an earlier thread. You are 2 years younger than me 🙂

Having cravings for food is very hard and especially when we feel lonely or even worse - abandoned.
You are worth caring about Mocha , you are amazing.

Hi mocha, I'm so sorry to hear this. Happy birthday to you though. You're not forgettable, you're loved and cared for. If it makes you feel any better, I never do anything for my birthdays either and I turned 21 last month. Over the years I've done some stuff but that was when I was a kid mostly so I don't remember, otherwise its just my parents & I because I live with them. Same with Christmas. While I like both things, its hard for me, especially Christmas. I wish I could be there with you. I'm sorry you're alone
