Relationship of 8 years ends when boyfriend ruins girlfriend’s birthday and disrespects her brother: “I thought I’d be sad about us breaking up, but I’m not”

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. Birthdays mean a lot to some people. Some people don't even tell their friends they're having a birthday, while others don't stop talking about it for months beforehand. At the end of the day it isn't about a "birthday" per se, but that the person wants to feel loved, appreciated, and valued by the people surrounding them. Maybe most of the year they feel neglected and don't know how to speak up about it, and their birthday is their one day a year where it's socially acceptable to be narcissistic.

Besides birthdays, being in a relationship and having a birthday could be one of the best memories you two have together, or a terrible nightmare. Maybe your partner did something really extravagant, he/she went above and beyond to make your birthday extra special. I remember one year my boyfriend and I went to Thailand for my birthday, and he rented a hotel room at a private resort. We spent the day adventuring outside, hiking, climbing down into lagoons, and it was definitely special.

In the story below, the boyfriend falls a bit flat of giving his girlfriend a special birthday. But you'll have to read the full story below for all the juicy details.

It's crazy to me that they made it this far in their relationship. They seem like a very young and immature couple. I guess the girl was only 22 when they started dating. I think this kind of thing tends to happen when you start dating so young, you get sort of stuck in that age range.
