Happy Birthday @darkippedrose.
While in college, in one class we were reading about some of the Native American Tribes in the USA and Canada. In one tribe, the person with the birthday threw a party and gave the guests gifts. I was thinking, that is not a bad idea because I don't like receiving gifts, so I gave the "Reverse Birthday" a try. I have done it a couple of other times.
I invite people out to lunch and I pay for it. I request they not give me anything and say if they insist on giving me something, make it under a dollar and absolutely no cards. Some of the things I got were a small bag of M&M, a box of "Dot' candies, a roll of "Life Savers" or "Necco Wafers" or a pack of cookies from the dollar store.
Birthday sex happened in the early years of marriage but that has been a LONG time ago.

Handy, what you described is what some tribes calm “giveaways” and do whenever a person has a major achievement like graduating from school. I love the idea of giving things to family and friends who have supported one along one’s journey.

NSM, giveaways or what ever it is called, it works for me. I get out of it what I put into it.
I still like the idea of birthday or any other special day sex. The bummer is no one is giving me that (sex) personal item/activity and I haven't been able to give it away myself.

DTR, Happy Belated Birthday ! I think your husband is very inconsiderate. My husband acknowledges every birthday and holidays etc. He's definitely thoughtful on that front. It's why I say we are more friends than anything else.
Birthday sex I honestly can't remember anymore. Maybe in the very early part of the marriage, it definitely hasn't happened in the last 10 years..Crazy world we live in !

thanx all, this post was from a while ago. no birthday sex ever. He has never acknowledged my birthday. He hates celebrating his own and imho, isn't very nice when others try to do something nice for his birthday. Handy, in Lord of the Rings, the hobbits actually give presents away on their birthday. So basically, the hobbits get a gift on almost everyday of the year because of how many there are. And teh gifts, are just giving gifts other people have given them, lolz.

Yesterday I flew I to San Diego with my son for him to meet ballofconfusion. It wasn't our "normal" week as yesterday was my birthday and I wanted to spend this weekend with the most important people in my life. My daughter flies in tonight and we will be spending the day Saturday as one blended family (with BOC daughter) at the San Diego Zoo. And, yes, there was birthday sex. I cannot remember the last time I had birthday sex, but this is absolutely the first time i didn't have to beg for it.

She is hitting a "milestone" birthday and it is over Christmas break so there will be a cramped house full of kids back from college. But I will endeavor to make it a memorable experience for both of us.

I learned a long time ago not to expect birthday sex. I remember many years ago i wrote quite a detailed story on the Old EP Forum before this one about the lack of birthday sex i received one year. I'd post a link to the story but i think even the old EP Archives are now unavailable. Hope all is well Sister Dark Tipped Rose.
