A friend and I agreed a few years ago that rather than giving each other a birthday present we would take each other out for lunch. We talk on the phone a couple of times a week and meet up probably every three months although we only live a mile apart. I am her first port of call when she has a problem and the lack of meetings doesn’t overly concern me. However, when it’s her birthday I will make arrangements early on with her and take her out within the week of her birthday. When it’s mine she doesn’t mention anything until the day and then can’t fit me in for weeks. She works 4 days a week and has Fridays off and won’t go out at the weekend because of spending time with her husband.
AIBU to think that a birthday lunch becomes pointless if it takes place after a month+? I have dropped hints about putting a date in our diaries but she ignores them.
