I'm in my late 20s and I kind of have assburguers, but have a job, pay my bills etc. I still live with my parents though, and they insist that family needs to come over on my birthday, even though I haven't been attending any of my family members' birthday parties and I dislike being in the center of attention. I also don't feel like birthdays are to be celebrated at all, as opposed to celebrating real accomplishments. How fucked up am I for wanting to be left alone, even by my own family, for my birthday?
I feel the same way I would guess it’s pretty normal for guys. I actively dread my approaching birthday and holidays. I just want to be left alone
>>35046555I don't think it's that weird. But I'm depressed. I don't like making a big deal about my birthday because it's a reminder of everything I wanted to do but haven't by the time I'm this fucking old.
It's normal. You gotta go to your family members birthdays though. Those family members are not going to be around in a few years. I get that giving up one of your days off that week sucks, but there's 52 weeks a year.
>>35046555Yes. The whole concept is blown out of proportion.
