RE: Happy Birthdays!

Oh, and I said yes, because then if others log in on that day they'll see a thread about it and know that it's that persons birthday, and be able to wish them a happy birthday as well and not feel they missed out on their chance to give best wishes... some people don't like others making a big deal about their birthdays though... that's why I put in the No option.

RE: Happy Birthdays!

I voted for PM, that way people would send you a more personal message. If they cared about you that is. Having 1 best friend is better than having 10 acquaintances, in my opinion.

RE: Happy Birthdays!

Happy Birthday you two.


I must say though that I hate my own birthday. Nothing worse then being reminded your getting older. Don't really understand why anyone would like having a birthday.

RE: Happy Birthdays!

I haven't had a birthday since I was 13... I was told then that I was too old for parties or the like. So that was my last bday... I don't pay any attention to them anymore, and feel somewhat uncomfortable when people bring it up.

RE: Happy Birthdays!

I have an aunt that sends everyone cards for every occasion every year... it's so unbelievable that she can possibly remember everyones special days and holidays but she does... amazingly thoughtful woman. My parents remember if I'm home and around where they are... otherwise no cards... sometimes a phone call. I don't mind though, I'm terrible for remembering dates, so I'm only getting as good as I give.

man that's not good... Birthdays are a day where everything revolves around you. Just for that one day a year. A day where the world celebrates you. Not the royal family are some jumpt up prime minister but you..

I could not Imogen not enjoying my birthday.

Who ever told you you was to old for birthdays wont's a slap.

If I know where you lived you would get a card from me as well,, whether you liked it are not Toungue
