Exactly, she has banged on about how awful it is so much that she nearly had me feelimg sorry for her about her birthday and ChristmasAnother thing that has probably be mentioned but is driving me insane is that she keeps going on about her birthday and how she’s had to cancel plans etc. Like she’s the only one who’s had a birthday this year?! The only people who may have had a decent birthday are those in Jan-mid March and they’ll have their’s ruined in 2021 too.
THEN I realised I didn’t have things booked for my birthday as nothing was open (we were in first fill lockdown but still had a fab b’day with my other half which I preferred) and Christmas I also won’t see a single family member other than my partner who I live with. I hadn’t planned to see family or his as we don’t deem it safe enough.
We are grateful we are a young couple in our own place. And yes the majority of people are in the same situation regarding birthdays and Christmas this year. She is a grown adult with her own place and a long term partner. She just needs to get on with it.
