Just realized my girlfriend is terribly conceited and self-centered

Relax bro, it's still early. Maybe she's planning a crazy night of super freaky sex

Tell her you have to go out tonight because someone is planning a surprise party.

I am going to get a shame-rock shake and eat a cheeseburger. She legit forgot. Really upset. She'll figure it out on her own.

I am not supposed to talk to her after this, right?

Rally the troops I am single tonight

If love was about quid pro quo relationships it might make sense, but it wouldn't be love.

Apologize to girlfriend for thinking bad thoughts of her just because she forgot your stupid birthday.

If she continues to disappointment you, move on to the next one who will at some point in time disappoint you even more.

M.A.G.A.

She definitely forgot. I am done caring about this for tonight. But I wont forget it for the rest of my young adult life.

Sorry to hear that bud, you deserve better. Sometimes people are human and forget things, but if this isn't the first time she's done something like this then you should reconsider your relationship. If not, hope she makes it up to you big time.

Young couples should treat each other like it's their birthdays every time they see each other nomsayin?

Happy sixth birthday. I am really sorry that your girlfriend forgot.

If you are older than six then it's time to grow up and stop worrying about your stupid birthday. It isn't a big deal for men.

Also, if you constantly expect reciprocity for every little thing you do in a relationship then you will never be happy.

Yes.

More generally, if you give something while expecting to get something in return, you're not really giving. You're lending. But the poor borrower doesn't even know they're supposed to be indebted to you.

3/10 - you got some replies

If she is smoking hot, it's all forgiven. That is the pivotal question. If she is only 5 to 7, I hear you.

Tell us about her conceit

No big deal. Stuff happens. People forget things all the time.

She does everything I ask of her in the bedroom. Don't see the big problem here.

Did you ever tell her when your birthday was?

Youth IS wasted on the young. Be glad you have a girlfriend to be mad at!!!

Maybe she forgot because birthdays are stupid. You sound like the women of your relationship.

happy bday to me! wrote:

She is a senior in college while I am graduated. For her birthday last month I took her out for her favorite sizzling mexican dinner. I made sure to invite her closest friends, make a big deal about it on social media with photos and generate likes, her friends showed up at dinner, we went out afterward and we all had a great time.

Card. Gift. Dinner. Party. Hotel. Just an all-time great celebration. She was so happy.

She forgot today was my birthday and I am quite hurt about it. Dated over a year. Hasnt said a word all day to me. I didnt need anything extravagant but I am not even acknowledged.

Kick down a dead horse LRC! I am done.

So a woman purportedly in a relationship with you wasn't interested enough in you as a man to remember something you consider important about you? What are you going to do about it? On the off-chance, whining about it on a running message board doesn't help, what's Plan B?

Fixed the title for ya.

There will come a day when you're glad people forget your birthday.
