I waited for this day, hoping that he might remember. I was hoping for him to congratulate me, or even write a simple "hi", but nothing. Relatives, "friends" and other nonames wrote me congratulations, but Gosh...It feels so empty and I don't want their attention, their words or presents. Just... I want just him tot remember me, because I feel myself like I was nothing to him. I hate those promotions of self-love and to make this day all about me, so I've decided not to celebrate it in any way. I'm 20(in my country it's a pretty mature age age) and I've already screwed up everything.

do you feel like you’re grieving him today, or grieving what you thought you meant to him?
i know you only wanted it to be him, but i had to stop tying my worth to whether they showed up or not. i muted everything that day and just got through it quietly, no pressure to “celebrate.”
birthdays after a breakup are brutal. i remember sitting there refreshing my phone all day for one person, and every other message just felt… empty. it made me feel like i meant nothing too
happy birthday, u deserve all the love❤️❤️❤️
happy birthday. please keep telling urself positive affirmations. he lost you, you didnt lose him.
happy birthday friend 🧡 keep your head up, keep moving forward, and know you're not alone ❤️
Happy Birthday 🎂 20 is a special birthday, and you are special too! i hope you get to spend today doing something you really love doing, remembering all the things you love and appreciate about yourself, and celebrating being you! 🌼🌟
thanks, but I'm not celebrating today. I've decided just to spend time alone in uni dorm
