There are certainly many things I am no longer going to put up with in my 30s. I'm too old for that shit.
That being said, X is picking up DS in an hour (its his usual visitation, I could keep DS as it's my bday but I'd actually like some alone time.)
I'm taking bets on whether or not he will remember it's my birthday! Any takers?

My XH wished me a happy birthday the first year that he left (it's hard to forget mine - it's Christmas Day). This past year he didn't. I don't know which I preferred lol. On the one hand as the mother of his child, it's nice to be acknowledged on my special day. On the other as he's a fuckwad, it's almost an insult for him to wish me a happy day.
The Princess had the boys give me a nice card from her on Fathers' Day, and it pissed me off. If she hadn't, it might have pissed me off at least as much.
In a lot of areas, they really can't win with us - and that's exactly what they deserve.
The best thing about hitting rock bottom is that everything after that looks fucking fabulous
I'm with pass ~ stbx didn't acknowledge my birthday or mothers day but eh ... whatev's. "...they really can't win with us - and that's exactly what they deserve.
Enjoy your day!
PS: I get what you're feeling. My birthday is Saturday and I'm turning 40. A whole new decade to start.

Don't worry, the 30s haven't been too bad so far. Maybe when I'm 40 I will get more serious? But I doubt it
And yeah, whether he remembers or not, FTG..
30's were fun... 40's were where I felt I was coming into my own.. 50's well the jury is still out.
Enjoy your day..Do something special just for you.
Hugs,

40's are nice! 50's even better! Take care and the 60's might be okay too! I'm wishing you a beautiful day rumor!
Don't let a turd wreck your special day.

I always think of my 80 year old self kicking my arse for calling myself old or not seeing how beautiful and astonishingly young and vibrant I am at 38.
Everyone should channel their inner 80 year old selves.
Hope you had some alone time and enjoyed your day !
I'm 61 and (in my head) I'm still in my 30's at times. I get together with girlfriends regularly (think Sex and the City...without the sex LOL) and laugh and have a ball.
30's will be FANTASTIC...really!
