Well 11 for 11 now. We actually did hug but that was as after she asked me if I liked her card and I was trying not to laugh. I stood up and gave her a hug. Felt akin to the hug you would give a distant relative. Oh yeah. Here's the card Attachments:

So she is in denial. Or she is desperately trying to recreate some kind of emotional connection and doesn't know how to do it.

Great card! (From a grandmother) Oh my. Sorry dear. But "mediocre birthday" wishes from your roommate - I mean, I guess it beats forgetting it.

Hey, you got the non-card. Nice words that don't mean anything.

The poem needs a complete re-write. Something like -
"Birthday after birthday Next year may bring good luck But here's a piss weak card for you There'll be no birthday fuck
Birthday after birthday Look back on them and rue The times that you have wasted by Remaining with a shrew"

My birthday is next Sunday and I won't even get a card. But then again I don't need the "non caring, I don't really give a crap, but I will feel guilty if I don't get you a card" card anyway.
I hope you were able to have some enjoyment on your birthday. We have some really awesome people here in our group that I'd rather spend my birthday with, then anywhere or anyone else.

I just thought about what I want for my birthday!
Like Jim Carrey in the movie "Liar, Liar", for 9 hours I want my wife to have to tell the truth and she can't lie about anything.
Man I'd work her over just like a police interrogation complete with recording, then I'd file for divorce with a big smile.

Just curious, do you feel that an exposure of the truth is necessary for you to file for divorce? You don't need a reason, you know.

Just curious, do you feel that an exposure of the truth is necessary for you to file for divorce? You don't need a reason, you know. I know that. But it would be interesting to get her true feelings about me, and us just to have a clear understanding. But you're right, the non-verbal is just as truthful and clear as a truthful verbal response.
But it would still be a great birthday present! Not as much as being with someone who enjoys and desires a hot, passionate, romantic relationship.

Yes the whole thing would have quite a dramatic flourish.

While some see this card as a token and obligatory response to another milestone in your life I actually see a bit of affection and perhaps some love along the lines of that experienced in a familial or platonic relationship. The companion and amiable room mate status you share is exactly the place she wants to be with you.

My birthday is next week. I'm wondering what kind of weak ass card I will receive. Will there be birthday cake? I know there will be no sex for the fifth year in a row. We shall see.
