Birthdays are a time for celebration, but for one woman, her special day turned into a nightmare… again! She’s the planner and giver in her family, always making sure everyone’s birthdays and holidays are celebrated to the max. But when it comes to her own birthday, she just wanted a little help and appreciation from her husband. Sadly, things didn’t go as planned.

Birthdays Not a Big Deal?
One Day to Celebrate Herself
All this birthday-loving wife wanted was a little help and appreciation from her husband on her special day. But instead, she ended up making her own cake, taking care of the kids, and doing chores while her husband claimed to be ‘sick’ after staying up all night playing video games. When she finally confronted him, he said she was overreacting and that birthdays aren’t a big deal after 21. Is it too much to ask for one day to be the receiver instead of the giver? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
