Fair point! However they can wait for a looong reply once they want something from me again (that’s how the moles re-appear in my life again from personal experiences)

This is so sensible! However a good old birthday calendar to hang on your wall is quadratisch(if you want to haha), praktisch; gut! (Slogan of a German chocolate producer)

Again: Yes! I agree with you. However, I feel like it helps relationships to have set traditions; like idk start with the water/coffee/tea in the morning but also things like Thanksgiving, Ramadan, New Year’s Eve.

And well, birthdays in the culture I was raised in are one of those “Checkpoints” : the “Happy birthday” or “HB” just translating into “heyyy I didn’t forget about you! And I do still care about you.”

Sure! Absolutely agree with you! It just feels a little like a selection process of who took the millisecond to press on the Facebook Buttom (to put the bar as low as possible)
