| Here is the plan to avoid the awkward gift issues, state you won't open any until your birthday time as in hours and minutes and hold the dinner or party at least a few hours prior. That way you can do the opening in private and have time to prepare an appropriate response or better yet send a than... |

| Added to that, the fact that so few people have ever bothered to know me well enough to know what I would even want, it just always feels forced and obligatory. Giving me a gift just because you felt you were supposed to only makes me feel guilty, as though I'm responsible for your being put to the... |

| I just hate being the center of everyone's focus. I don't want gifts because I don't like buying gifts for others on their birthdays. It just all feels so unwarranted. I just want to have a quiet nice dinner out with my fiance and that's all the acknowledgement my birthday needs but then people get ... |

If it is their house that they live in especially. However, if you feel as though you are being excluded in a way that is preven... |

| I similarly recently moved from an area of population around 350k people to an area about 600k. I used to live in a suburb and now live in the city proper. It was easier before for me to find acquaintances simply because there were fewer people in the area and so you took a bit more notice of the pe... |
