is it childish of me to want someone to “fight for me” every once in awhile? i have a milestone birthday coming in 5 days and my brain has been screaming at me to do nothing. half my friends aren’t free and they would never plan something unless i asked

No this is so relatable and I don't think it's childish. People didn't evolve to be fully independent, it's in our nature to want to work together.

like idk if that makes sense. no one ever really thinks about taking the steering wheel from me once in awhile, i’m tired of having to fight to make happy things happen bruh damn

I don’t think it’s childish I think it’s a way for your brain to make you feel wanted. You wanna know that people were thinking about you enough to plan something without you having to indicate that you wanted it planned.

it’s exactly that. i want to feel wanted without having to ask for it. i feel like i’ve become easy to forget about to everyone — i haven’t had a good birthday since i was like 16, i’m about to be 21:( i think i just want the love poured into me that i give other people, even if just periodically
