I do not think I am in the headspace to talk with my friends healthily right now. I just don’t want to come across as needy, a burden, or mean to them. But this is the second year in a row they forgot my birthday. We usually wish happy birthdays in our group chat, and a decent amount of the time we usually plan something in advance. Like a birthday party or just going out for the night with more of us to celebrate. I don’t even want a gift, or anyone to have to spend any money on something for me. I just want to feel appreciated.
What can I even say or bring up to them without sounding so needy or aggressive? I see no way of saying anything without seeming so burdensome.
