Does anyone think it would be strange if their partner said they did not want them there on their birthday, or only for part of the day?
I've basically been told by my girlfriend that she doesn't want me there and her birthday is all about her and her family. I'm free to come over later in the day, but she doesn't want me there while she opens her presents and all the other birthday things you do.
I said I didn't have a problem, it was her day and she can do what she wants. To be honest, I don't mind at all, but I did think it was a little odd. Do you think there is something deeper going on here or am I just reading into it too much (as usual :rolleyes: )?

about a year.
Yeah, I'm not overly concerned, but youknow, these thoughts do creep into your head when you've got too much time to think!
LOL
I think she does some things that seem a little odd to me, but I love her anyway
My biggest problem is her unwillingness to communicate about important issues/problems, hence me being on here talking about them so much. :rolleyes:
Hmmm, well that's what I was thinking, the only times I haven't wanted my girlfriends at things like this was when I didn't want to be with them full stop.
I know she said she wants to see me, but I don't know why she doesn't want to include me with all teh normal birthday stuff and family stuff that goes on. She just wants to see me after.
By the way, her birthday isn't for a little while yet, and by the time it comes round we will have been together for a good 15 months, but she seems to have made her mind up already.
