When Birthdays Coincide with Life Events

[dibbons]

My younger brother and I always celebrated our birthdays together as youngsters. We were both born on the same day in September, three years apart (we don't share the same birth parents, we were both adopted into the same family as newborns).

My loving Godfather, the Medical Doctor who delivered my younger (adopted) brother mentioned above, died on our common September birthday.

One of my best friends during my girl chasin' days recently died on my mother's April birthday (the "mother" who adopted me).

My first cousin and father (the man who adopted me) share the same birthday in August. They also share the same first name.

My classiest former/ex girlfriend was born on the same day in December as my best (guy) friend that I had all through grade school. She made me the birthday cake in the foto below for my 26th birthday:

i have a sister in law whose birthday is 3 or 4 days after mine
each year its the same, someone will come up with the idea to celebrate our birthdays together, and then i reply "sure, do whatever you feel like, but i wont be there, because im NOT sharing my birthday"
i dont care if we celebrate my birthday or not, but i aint sharing the one day a year i got to myself

Try having a December birthday and having your birthday lumped in with an imaginary fictional character , at least they want to share yours with a real person ffs .

We have no less that 3 sets of people in our combined families that have the same birthdays, and both of our neighbors have the same birthday as 2 of those sets!! Apparently, everybody got laid on the same day back then. Maybe a power outage, or the priest OK'd that day as a day of rest!!

Kinda like Nov. 5th, 1955.......

Hope you and your neighbours don't share the same surnames as well.

They do not, but I do call him Dad, because I never had a Dad and his son is a lost soul. He always says I'm like the son he never had!
