For each of my friend’s birthdays, I always bake them something. They all seemed to like it, which made me happy because I felt like I did something nice for them, and that the effort I put into baking them treats was worth it lol. And then my birthday came… and I got nothing. All I got were the usual “happy birthday!” texts. One friend did give me something, which actually almost made me cry. I really appreciated it. But it still hurt that no one else bothered to do anything special for me. Of course I wasn’t expecting to get gifts, but honestly I feel kind of forgotten and thrown aside. I always feel like I’m doing the most for my friends while they never really care about me. I feel awful about this, even weeks after because it was like a slap in the face that I don’t mean as much to them as they do to me.
