You can go out and treat it as your last birthday.. or stay home and have a blast next year

No offense but there are more important things to worry about than missing your birthday.

How are you missing your birthday? I can guarantee your birthday will still happen on the same exact date it was happening on pre-COVID.

If no one is around to see you celebrate, did your birthday really happen?

funnylike

Oh no OP, that is terrible!!! Did you have a big party already booked at Chuck E. Cheese??

funnylike

Sorry this is happening :( but you can still do a virtual celebration with friends and do a little self pampering day at home (order fave food, self care etc). Also for perspective — there are people dying out there so be thankful for your good fortune and health in these times. Just some perspective :)

I spent my birthday in *actual* quarantine (not physical distancing / stay at home). Life went on. It was still kind of nice. The end.

My birthday was in April so you’re not the only one. Just celebrate it when the 🔒 down is over.

Thanks you guys.
I know I can celebrate it later and is not a big deal compared to all the craziness in the world right now. Sometimes you just need to vent. Especially when you've been in denial that everything will be okay by memorial day and suddenly find out. It's quite a shock to the system when you are Birthday obsessed like I am. 😣
Thank you for being there FB fam!

Mine was yesterday. Considering the nominal impact anyone's birthday has on the world, feel free to celebrate your half birthday in six months.

My birthday is coming up too 🎉 and I was not planning anything. But 2 friends came to me with an idea to host an online show as celebration 😭 We are inviting our whole crew to do 5m Zoom sets: music, characters, stand up, stories, monologues. I love my friends. ❤
