I don't know what to do

I haven't had a birthday party in years, at least decent one with my family for reasons i don't know, and the last one i had that was one of the best was last year. and im told that my close family members that live in a different state may not stay until my birthday and I don't think i should hate them. and i invited them last year and i only celebrated with my bff , no one else and they never came . Im just expected to assume my birthday doesn't matter anymore. and i sent graduation announcement on a family groupchat and no one responded. I don't want to hate my family, but i don't know how to feel anymore

My family was toxic, even my two siblings have followed suit and personally I would prefer to keep my own Council. I never had a birthday party even when I was in my very early days. So I have never thought to have one, my Wife and I normally have a special dinner at home for either of us and that seems to do quite well . I sad to say would prefer not to sit in a room with a load of people including Family if I cannot stand them it would seem to be hypocritical. So personally if you do not get on would that not be stressful ?

Are you having problems with your Family ?

I agree with Bob

You are not alone. Some family are just ghastly people who happened to be related to you.

My brother was 4years older than me and he was rotten from the time he was born. He tortured me and also was verbally abusive. He robbed my mum of thousands and said to me more than once our mum was stupid.

It's a long long story and I got the police to finish with him.

We don't know what will happen in the future and there are lovely people in the world who we will meet and I really hope that one day your birthday will be happy. Don't ever think that it won't happen.

God bless

Sending love and hugs to you
