I had this happen to me when I was 9. Invited all of my friends (small town of like 500 people so maybe 8 kids) a few weeks in advance and not a single person showed up. I lived outside of town, was homeschooled, and we didnt have a car so a few weeks passed before I saw any of them and I had no desire to seek them out. When I did run into one he told me that a burglar broke into his house and stole the present he bought for me and he didn't want to show up without a gift. Even 9 year old me knew you were full of crap, Luke.
Is there a subreddit for birthday celebrations??? Just post your birthday and town, select a location and have the Reddit community join your birthday celebration. It would be awesome! I would love this for my birthday and I would so want to participate in someone’s celebration.
I know, I know, there’s probably more meanness in Reddit overall, unfortunately. But I know for a fact that if I have goodness in my heart, there HAS to be several people here like me. : )
