my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

I know most of you are probly like...wtf is so special about a cake. Well before you say that let me let in on a little something. My mom is a jehovahs witness and my dad was never around due to the military. So we lived how my mom saw fit. Well if you don't know jehovah witness's don't celebrate nothing and i mean nothing. I grew up never knowing easter ,christmas or my birthday since my mom didn't see it right to do so. Well now it feels really awkward when im with friends who do celebrate it and i don't feel comfortable with it ,feels alien like. Well i never got anything for my birthday or any other day so i grew up never expecting anything...just happy i was alive and well. No one ever bought me a cake not even my ex's for my birthday. So when i saw her come in with the cake ,a smiley cookie and a card , i was truely shocked and speechless. She knew about my backround and did this cause she thought it would make me happy and it did.That happened 2 days ago and im still speechless ,its really hard for me to believe someone actually cared enough to buy me a cake for my birthday. I really felt like crying for that brief moment in time. For once in my life i was actually truely touched by the thought and still am. I guess what im trying to say is just be happy someone cares enough to put that thought into their gifts. To those who do have girls...let them know how you feel to them.

well happy late birthday man. thats a good girl you got there, dont loose her ;)

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

keep the girl, ditch the religion :P

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

Happy birthday!

I never understood why Jehovas Witnesses don't celebrate birthdays... well, I know the scriptural reason because I've had it explained to me but I still think it's silly. Celebrating a birthday is pretty harmless if you ask me.

Congrats on getting past that though. I hope the cake tasted good!

i can understand religious holidays but thanksgiving is what confuses me. it is nowhere near a religious event, the indians cooked us soem food and we said thank you ???

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

Wow man, that's pretty damn cool. You're lucky that you have a girl like that. Happy b day man O0

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

I'm happy for you. Happy birthday! Jevoah's Witness. Oh my. Sorry to hear that though, that must suck. Christianity is where it's at, bro. ;) ;D

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

isn't celebrating a birthday...simply that? nothing "spiritual" or "religious" about it in my opinion. you're simply celebrating the day your mom gave birth to ya. unless giving birth is "religious" in some way? ???

oh well i'm sorry you grew up never even getting to celebrate your own birthday at the very least. that's kinda sad. :( but your story was great and i'm happy you have a gf who obviously know you well enough to know that you'd appreciate her thoughtfulness. :)

happy birthday a couple days late :)

keep it up.

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

2 days ago was my birthday beeeeech! ;D

Happy b-day and I know what you mean. My family don't do much celebration for birthdays, holidays or what nots, but friends wanna do ----, not that it's bad... just weird. I was always used to celebrating others birthdays rather than my own.

well none the less happy b-day, girl must really care about you, congrats on that too.

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

Would of been better if a chick popped outta the cake, but ya know, what you got is good too ;)

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

wow, reading it the way you put it i could almost imagine exactly how you felt.

I feel sorry for the rest of us who will never feel that way. poor him? no poor us. We take advantage of it, growing up, knowing on __ day of__ i'll be getting a cake and presents and have a birthday party. But for him that wasn't the case. It NEVER happened. He didn't have easter mornings looking for eggs, didn't have any of that.

But here out of no where, just another day to him this heaven sent angel brings him a simple cake and a card and it made him the happiest person on earth. Thats got to feel so great. I would trade 20 years of my life to experience what you did in that moment

Re: my girlfriend bought me a cake
 

Thanks to everyone for the b-days congrats and so fourth. I do know i got a great girl and she knows it to cause i let her know everyday. Just appreciate what you guys got cause somewhere someone doesn't. Always said home made turbo was like a second family. Thanks
