Is it normal to be alone on your birthday?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s normal to spend your birthday alone, whether you chose to or it just worked out that way. You might enjoy the quiet, feel disappointed, or feel both at once.
Birthdays don’t come with a required guest list. People may be alone because they like having a quiet day, live far from friends or family, are busy, or simply don’t have plans this year.
It can still sting if you hoped someone would make a fuss, and that doesn’t mean you’re being dramatic. If you want company, it’s okay to tell someone or make a low-key plan yourself; if you’d rather keep the day to yourself, that’s fine too.
