Ouch. Your birthday isn’t a national holiday, but you definitely expect your BFF to remember the day that’s all about you—and to help you celebrate and make a big fuss. That’s one of the things best friends are great for. Is there a reason she might have spaced on the big day? Maybe something in her life—like a problem at home—has her mind preoccupied. While it wouldn’t necessarily be an excuse, at least it could explain it a little. Still, her forgetfulness hurt your feelings, so don’t say, “I shouldn’t worry about it.” Is she usually thoughtful and considerate of you, or does she have a track record of thinking only of herself? If you decide she’s worth keeping as a friend, go ahead and remind her of the little date that passed her by. Let her know you’re bugged, and give her the opportunity to make it up to you. If she seems truly apologetic, let it go—until next year, that is!
