this is prob really stupid

its my birthday tomorrow and i think one of my mates has forgotten my birthday, i dont want to sound really selfish, but i go out of my way for her birthday but she hasnt even brought my birthday up, we havnt spoken much cos of exams but she hasnt even texted me much at all. ive texted her a few times and she hasnt replied to any of them. though i rang her the other day to invite her to a sleepover, she didnt even say hello, or bye. i asked her if she was able to come she was like 'dunno', it may be just me but i would thought it would be polite to say 'thanks for inviting me but im not sure if i can go' she was sounding like she was annoyed at me, though im positive i havnt done anything wrong.

if she has forgotten, well i hope im not being selfish but i would be upset if she had forgotten it. do you think i should not mention it, or ask her about it?
It might be one of those typical TV scenarios when you get back home and everyone's organised a surprise party and you're like "wow! a surprise party! for me? gasp".

On the other hand it's probably not, so ask her. :p: But maybe wait till tomorrow. It's too late to organise things with her now anyway... maybe see what happens tomorrow first?
well why dont you wait until your birthday and if she doesnt say anything still ask her are you mad at me? and if not tell her how you feel, nothing sould come in the way of good friendship!!! :-)

OR she might not be a good friend anymore. Wait until tomorrow. :smile:

OR perhaps she is going through a particularly rough time for whatever reason, and so her mind is elsewhere. It would explain her not answering the phone, her lack of enthusiasm about the sleepover and her forgetfulness.

If you talk to her, perhaps rather than the angle "Why did you forget my birthday?" you could instead ask her if anything's wrong? You wouldn't want to be annoyed at her and then find out that she has a good reason for her lack of responsiveness!
