| I gave up trying to make friends. It seems every person I make friends with only cares about them self. I mean my birthday was yesterday, and none of my friends even wished me a happy birthday. Sometimes you think someone is your friend, but they hardly think of you ever. |

I am in a similar situation as you.

I'm weird about birthdays. I'm better than I used to be, but I used to consider a good birthday is when I don't cry all day. But I did figure out one thing. If you don't want people to forget you must shamelessly promote.

I do not know which to prefer,
The beauty of inflections
Or the beauty of innuendos,
The blackbird whistling
Or just after.

I never understood why some people get overly excited that you wished them a happy birthday. I've always thought "whats so great about 'wishing' someone a happy birthday"? Do they have a fairy godparent or something?

I don't wish people a happy birthday, I rarely do.

My issues were entirely about the reminder of my existence. I have only not been chronically depressed for the last 10 years. I needed some validation of my worthiness and when I didn't get it-boohoo. Some people have unrealistic expectations of holidays, mine was birthdays. I'm pretty much over it now. I'm trying not to make my self esteem anybody else's problem but my own.

| This may sound a stupid question, but you did tell them it was your birthday, right? |

I have to remind my own mother when it's her birthday 
But seriously, you can't expect friends to automatically remember your birthday without some kind of reminder; facebook, hints, whatever... Unless you've known eachother for years or something. |

I know its a little late, but Happy Birthday. 
I feel sad at times as well when noone thinks of me. Not even once during the year. Every birthday I have ever had has only contained family members. I have never had a close friend or anything ever want to be around me. |
