Todays my birthday, im 43 and alive , last month was Andys birthday , 43 also, except he's dead, and never got to celebrate his birthday,  and although I'm alive, I refuse to celebrate mine, I mean, what the hells to celebrate,  I told my family many weeks ago, not to get me a card, or even mention it, to their credit they respected my wishes, but a friend of mine I don't see to often called to see me earlier, she brought me a cake, and I know I should be grateful and I also know she ment well, but I can't eat it, any other cake im will happily demolish,  but not this cake, I know it sounds utter ridiculous but I look at the cake and it makes me sad, it represents me getting older and without the man I love, I feel hatred towards that cake, so after I've written this, that cake is going in the bin smashed into pieces like my heart.Fuck you birthdays and fuck you cake.

I'm so sorry for your loss Joanne and I don't blame you a bit for feeling that way. You might feel differently on your next birthday but if you don't , it's ok. My Mom always made my birthday cake and she's not here to do that anymore. Cake isn't the same for me anymore and neither are lots of things and I have to learn to live with that. It's so unfair that you lost your love so young. Hugs for you .

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
