I think I've stumbled into an alternate reason I don't tell people about my birthday unless they ask.*
I've been so irritated and bothered about previous birthday experience that I don't want to tell people.
If it's the thought that counts, I appreciate it. But I do not do well at also accepting the thoughtlessness that typically accompanies it, in my experience.
Turning my birthday into a day to disrupt my plans and making me feel worse than I was trying to avoid making myself feel is not a good use of anyone's time. I hope.
If it is the thought that counts, but you cannot remember to include why the thought is important...I'd rather be forgotten.
