Who stills celebrates birthdays?

My parents never celebrated their birthdays and didn't throw anything for their kids. I just followed suit. I was jealous for a while of classmates and friends who had birthday parties all throughout their childhoods.

I can picture how it must have felt seeing your friends celebrate their birthdays. Did they taunt you frequently? I was having a chat with a few friends who mentioned that birthdays have never been about big celebrations but about taking stock and evaluating themselves.

I don't think they ever did. Also, I didn't tell friends my birthday and they didn't ask when it was anyway. Looking back, I don't think I really missed out.

I recently got an invite to a friend's birthday party, and any attempt not to attend it was discouraged. It was a small affair that rekindled old friendships. People are still celebrating birthdays but in different ways. I would also opt for a low-key affair.
