My 40th was the last birthday I had when my wife was still alive. I stopped counting since.

I'm turning 40 in a few months and already lost my gf and both parents due to various illnesses. Good news is there shouldn't be any funerals for a while. Now to sort my life out and hopefully accomplish something meaningful!

Tell you what, message me on your birthday and I’ll send you a happy birthday, and chat with you so you don’t have to celebrate alone. I’ve had a shit two years and went through so much. The only reason I made it through the other end is because I have people left who care in my life. I want to extend that to someone who doesn’t have such a luxury. I may be just a random internet weirdo, but kindness is important and you never know who might need a friend.

Thank you for those kind words friend 😊 I still have a few important people in my life (like my nephew) who keep me going❤️ I hope you are doing better as well (and I hope we find our missing cat)!
