Re: what does may08 think?

  • I'd probably call her on it, but that's just me.

    I'd either say "So H got me/did this for my birthday" and see what she says. Or I'd say is everything OK you seem distracted. Maybe she has something going on and she completely spaced on it.

  • she asked me how my day was and knew what my plans were. weird. i'm almost thinking her text to me didn't go through, but i don't really know how to ask. other than, "why didn't you call/text me to wish me a happy bday?"

  • that's tough. i would probably let it go or if it really bothered me i would just be direct. like "what happened to you yesterday? you dont wish ppl happy bday anymore? gee thx!" all the while laughing. i guess that's my way of being direct - say what's on my mind in a playful way. who knows maybe by asking you what you were doing she was talking to you about your birthday but totally blanked on the happy birthday part. oh and PS - happy birthday! i hope this post wasnt about me. oh wait but i am never on FB so i have an excuse. sorry i missed it!

  • Thanks md... I think I'm gonna drop it. Assume that she thought she did but never did. Oh well. It's not a huge deal, but I wouldn't do that. And if I forgot, I would at least say that too. Sigh.

    if it bothers you you should say something. she is your good friend for a reason and therefore probably has a good reason (like the text didn't go through). if the situation were reversed wouldnt you want your friend to say something if it was upsetting her? i think birthday stuff is always touchy because no one wants to come across like a baby. but you dont want to end up resentful over something that probably was a misunderstanding.

  • She probably just forgot. It happens to everyone.

    My guess is that she called you knowing it was your birthday, got distracted and forgot to tell you.  I'd probably just call her and ask her in a joking way if she forgot, but not make a big deal of it.

  • Yea no big deal. I am not going to hum over it. thanks for reassuring me ladies.

  • And I want to say sorry I didn't wish you a HB on FB because I didn't realize it until this morning (before I read this) the way my stupid FB is set up on my phone I have to go into all my categories into Events to see birthdays...I liked it much better when it was just at the top of my screen...in fact sorry to all of you that I haven't wished a HB to that I'm friends with because I can never remember to go.

    On that note I would be upset too however I would probably let it go or the next time y'all chat, email etc I would say something about how H got this for your bday or your bday dinner was great.  It could've been that she thought she already told you or her text didn't go through. 

    But generally when I text people HB and they don't respond I do follow up to make sure they got it.

    hahaha yea, I'd probably ask in some type of a joking way.

    Maybe she has some type of surprise coming this weekend?  Not sure if she's the type to do that, but maybe there's a card in the mail...
