The Truth Behind Why Birthdays Are So Hard

"I have these high expectations for my birthday because what I was taught as a kid and also how I look and treat others' birthdays. So every year I feel the need to plan everything for myself to avoid being let down on my birthday," she said. "It's not that I hate my birthday, it's the fact that I hate that I don't have a lot of friends to celebrate with." She added: "There are people in my life that I'm so fucking grateful for but there're still great people who don't always show up for me"
