Acknowledgement of one's existence is always nice. I certainly don't disagree with you on that. I just don't feel that there is any need for an adult to want too much ruckus. Although sometimes a little ruckus is fun. To each his/her own.
Adults do celebrate their birthdays even stranger some even have parties held in their honor.
Yes, I have had parties held 'in my honour' as an adult too. But I've also been alone for a few of my birthdays as well. I just don't feel a need or a want for the first, although I don't mind it happening. I don't mind the second either. But I agree that it's nice to have an acknowledgement from people I care about, even if it's via text or any other method. To me, it's just another day as I've said, but I understand different people have different priorities and will desire different things in life, so I'm sorry you feel that I have diminished or lessened something you value. I hope you have many pleasant birthdays to look forward to in the future.
