Topic: Today I am 30

I'm not sure how to feel about leaving my 20s. I had more stupid things to do! 30 just seems so... serious.

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?

BGF- 30 (me)
WXBF- 30 (him)
Last Dday- 4-8-13, he left for OW#2
Us- 1 DS 3yo, Him- 1 DD 7yo

Mrs. Robinson- 41, S but still M

Happy Birthday! (((hugs)))

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.

Yeah, I'm not sure which I would prefer. He picked him up and didn't say anything other than some petty reason why DD wasnt with him. Idiot.

Happy day, rumorhasit! 30 is hardly bad at all, and you still have plenty of time to be stupid!

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.

Happy Birthday!!! From a personal perspective, I loved my 30s. Still so young, high energy and enthusiasm levels, and it seemed like people took me more seriously. It's all good.

Happy Birthday!!

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..

Happy Birthday,

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,

Happy Birthday! 30 is so young!

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.

I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!

Happy Birthday Young One.

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!

Happy birthday, I kept making plenty of mistakes once I hit 30 :) hopefully your birthday goes better than mine did, I made the horrible mistake of calling my Xfiance , thinking she might tell me happy birthday, I had a few beers so first call went like this
" what do you want , I am watching TV with D" ( d is an old friend of mine who she began a EA with and after her and I were together 12 years, she began seeing him after 3 weeks apart from me) I don't recall the second or third calls, but the second to last call went like this, me " I think part of you might be angry that I left" her " I am ECSTATIC YOU LEFT ECSTATIC" last call and last time I will ever speak to her in my life " J if you call one more time you will hear D F_cking me".... so ye I didn't quite get a happy birthday haha
that last one scarred me, and I think I will remain scarred for a VERY long time, oh joy

jao
