Thank you I just feel like what did I do to deserve feeling like I don't matter to anyone. Who sits home and feels like this on their 30th bday. I never even ate dinner. How pathetic I am
I recently spent my 30th alone as well but there's always another birthday next year you can enjoy and make up for it.
You seem really nice and deserve better. Sorry for your loss, but it will get better.
Don't you feel you deserve better in life? Not necessarily the boyfriend not doing anything for your birthday, but his calling you names. It's not going to get better and will only get worse. This is your wake up call to get out before you wake up in 15 years and realize that you are still stuck in an unhappy relationship. I am sorry that you are so hurt.
I am sorry about everything and that you had such a bad birthday...the good thing is you're still really young and the 30's are a great decade. The boyfriend is a loser I'd get rid of him tomorrow. Your account says ohio if you live in one of the rural areas where's there's hardly any guys to choose from I would not let that hold you back. It sounds like you're staying with someone just to stay with them, and are not really happy. He is taking advantage of that. Move to one of the populated areas in Ohio that is doing well and at your age you'll have more guys to choose from then you know what to do with.
My 30th was pretty awful. I think it was below zero and my car doors froze shut while I was in the car. I was in school with people who averaged 6-7 years younger than me and didn't want them to know I was turning 30 because they thought people who were 30 without marriage/family were losers. So yeah, lots of people have bad 30th birthdays.
Guess what? 30 is still young! Your boyfriend sounds like a loser, but you are not! You can find a guy who treats you right and still make your 30s a great decade. Use your birthday as a wakeup call to find a new man (or be happily single) and make some positive changes in your life.
You have kids. Its your job to make your kids birthdays as nice as you can. To give them a "me" day.
Once your an adult, celebrating birthdays is up to you. If you have a SO who remembers and gets you a card and dinner, great. If not, thats fine too. Its not a world event, it really isnt. You now have a family, its up to YOU to decide how you will treat this day. If you want to whine and moan and be miserable, fine. Or you can have a major attitude adjustment, wake up in the morning, and say "its my birthday! yippee! Im going to plan a great day for myself." And then arrange your day just for you, go out to dinner, take the kids somewhere fun.

ITS UP TO YOU.
Well it was her 30th, that's kind of big for a woman or anyone really. It's considered the transition into a whole different stage of life. The boyfriend being an ass doesn't help things any.

6-7 years isn't even that big of an age difference though.
