Yes, I suppose it's better to spend my birthday alone that with family members I don't like/who don't like me. Still, it's a wake-up call that my life is out of balance if I have no one offline, in real life, who actually wants to be my friend and wants to take me out for my birthday. Thanks for the birthday wishes.

I didn't even get birthday cards. I got a text from my niece. She never texts me or calls me. I used to get birthday cards. But haven't received those in years.
