    I live alone and birthdays are, well, depressing - especially considering all my relatives are JW's.

    My birthday tends to be me.. me celebrating the day for me.

    Sometimes, I at least get one or two messages on facebook - but this year I didn't get any. I went to bed pretty depressed, which doesn't feel right on your birthday.

    The next morning, I discovered that my friend's wife had left me a message on my phone after I went to bed wishing me a happy birthday - and it made me feel a whole lot better the next day. At least until I rembered that her birthday was just a few days before mine, and I hadn't wished her one.

    Since then, I've decided I need to pay more attention to other people's birthdays, rather than my own.

    PS: Happy Birthday!

    Happy Birthday!!!

    I'm not feeling sorry for you... 57 is the new 17 (thanks to Viagra) ! Now enjoy this private party with your wife, instead of hanging with us "evil apostates"!

    Happy birthday to you.
    From Japan.

    In your friends, on their birthday, is there any person who receives a message from Japan?

    Well, ...
    I am 43 years old, and I am single.

    I was not able to get married although I wanted to.
    Not "I did not get married" but "I was not able to get married."

    You have a beautiful wife.
    You are happy, right?

    Happy birthday, TotallyADD.

    Hi, ADD

    Yes I know the feeling! But wow,,, your wife made you a cake? and pampered you? you deserve it!

    Happy Special Day !

    It doesn't take away the pain, though. Remember ---- NO REGRETS. You are out NOW, you gave your kids the best you knew how, and when you know better you do better. No guilt for their missed birthdays, guilt trips are a waste of time. You've acknowledge that it was a mistake, and it's now in the past. Let's hope there's lots of beautiful new memories yet to be created. You're sharing your sadness with people who understand, and that's a good feeling. We get it!

    note to Lime --- me, too, and it can feel soooo lonely. It is a special day, though *just because it was the day you arrived*. Remember, we're not programmed to remember other folks' b'days, and I've had to wish many "belated" happy b'days over the years -- if you tell your friend's wife that, she will understand.

    TotallyADD,

    Sorry Honey, I didn't realize you were feeling low today. You've been busy making our new house into a unique and beautiful home. I thought that made you happy. I know you feel lost as this is only the third birthday you've celebrated. Things will get better. I promise. Wink. Wink.

    Your Loving Wife,

    Reopened Mind

    TOTALLY ADD- Happy Birthday my friend ! My wife and I wish you a great one ! I know it's hard not having any JW family wish you a happy Birthday , but remember they are mind controlled by the WT society . They are mentally retarded. Literally. Their minds are skewed. Be grateful that YOUR mind is NOT skewed now ! You have your freedom of thinking now ! No one controls your mind anymore ! Think about that.

    My 2 JW daughters don't call me either on my Birthday, nor my JW siblings, nor my JW parents. However I have lots of JWN friends now who care for me unconditionally , just like we care for you TOTALLY ADD ! You mentioned you won't have any friends call you today on your Birthday . If you private mail me your phone number - I WILL call you today ! Tell you what- I will PM you my number and feel free to call me. Just remember you have lots of friends here who care for you unconditionally. Would love to talk with you
