    So… Let’s say my parents bought my sister’s birthday present… yeap… bought her present in late february.. A game that cost 30 f*cking euros… for a student who has C’s and F’s .Now get this… for my birthday which is now in march… I’m going to spend the WHOLE DAY alone in my home. Alone eating some crappy food and some birthday cake I’ll buy in a store. No food, no people, no gifts. And I’ve always been the hard working one. Straight A student in university, even got a scholarship. And I would have finished my degree if it wasn’t my anxiety, depression and health problems. However I’m still going back this year. For what? To spend my birthday alone and miserable. Amazing. I’m not even breaking down or anything.

    Mood : Infuriated
    • Your parents should treat both you and your sister equally @marikofujimoto with love and care, please don’t feel alone Mariko, you are such a beautiful angel who deserves amazing people around you especially during special occasions, I don’t want to see you sad Mariko, stay focused on making yourself upbeat and remember to smile, you will be OK Mariko, feel free to inbox me anytime if you want to chat about anything, stay strong sweetie :) <3 (hugs)

    • As the girl who always seen others be celebrated on their birthday and all other days but never actually been celebrated by others I know how you feel. I have a 40 something year old uncle that’s pretty establish in life but my mom and granny will break their backs to do for him. Besides him being establish, he’s an evil man. I realize sadly that sometimes people rather do for average to horrible people possibly out of pity or because maybe they can relate to those types of people versus people like you for example who’s so amazing, intelligent, have big goals and high standards out of life. That can intimidate anyone including family members sadly. They can feel like well you have all of this going for yourself you should be grateful or thats more than enough not realizing even celebraties say how even though their surrounded by people, a simple hello how are you would make their day. I could be so wrong since I’m only observing your update. Keep your head up high and you’re always welcomed to talk to me on your birthday all day if you want :)

    • @oliver I love my sister but… she’s always been the spoiled one sadly. I always work for things so makes me sad… Even worst is that today my mum told me she has to be out of the house aswell on the exact day of my birthday…. I’ll be all alone :(

    • @layla95 I’m so sorry that happened to you , you’re such a lovely person you really didn’t deserve that. However thank you for understanding my point, I’m really depressed I’ll be 22 and celebrating it alone, but I guess that’s life

    • @marikofujimoto well like i told you before, sadly the good one get the worse out of life. I say try to make the most of it as much as possible. I use to think by being by myself that anything was pretty much impossible. Could you go to a park? Maybe go see a movie? You could dress up or down and listen to your favorite music and binge watch things on tv. Watch comedies all day and give yourself a hot bubble bath. I’m just throwing random things out obviously but you get my point. You must do something! Don’t let a day defeat you because when i realize that my birthday is no different then my regular days, that’s when i didn’t expect much from it but to at least smile even if it was just once that day at something silly. Again, you can always talk to me that day or any other day. I’m sorry you feel so alone

    • Hope you manage to have a fabulous and fun birthday @marikofujimoto, please don’t feel alone, I’ll always be here for you and so will @layla95, find great activities to do on the day Mariko, you will be OK sweetie, you can inbox me anytime if you want to chat :) <3 (hugs)
