Am I wrong for not wanting to talk to my bf anymore after it being my birthday today and he didn’t make any plans to spend time with me or even gift me anything? I just wanted to feel appreciated and be celebrated

As long as you communicate with him clearly about what is making you upset, and allow him to rectify himself in a reasonable manner, this is more than reasonable. Just be 110% clear.

Don’t girls like to go out with their girl friends on birthdays?

Some of us came from a place where we weren’t celebrated and never celebrated birthdays in our families (not me but I know a few guys like this) so it may be a one sided issue here. I’m not saying this is right I’m saying it’s just a difference in how you were raised. I’d communicate how you feel to him in a calm and non-accusatory tone and see what he says. If he’s dismissive or disrespectful then he’s just an asshole, if he says anything along the lines of “I though that it’s what everyone did

Yeah he knew, all he said was happy birthday, no plans to hang out or nothing and we’ve been dating for almost a year.

That’s fucked tell him you want to go out for your bday and see what he says. If he can’t make time for you that says a lot

Or “I’m sorry how can I make it up to you” I’d let him make it up to you. You have every right to be upset but if you don’t do anything or say anything about it and just internalize the feelings, the hurt is on you at that point
