Reducing what goes on in a boy’s head on his birthday to fake maturity is an evidence to how insensitive the other gender can be to a boy, many times even in relationships.
For boys, a lot of expectations are attached to age
While birthday is a call for studio photoshoot for some
for many boys, new age is a reminder of the apartment of their own that they should have had
It’s a reminder that they are getting too old to be where they’re financially, academically and relationship wise etc
On a normal day a boy could just sit and start thinking of how to move forward in life, that thinking is more intense on a birthday
So if they don’t send a picture of themselves as broadcast to all contacts on WhatsApp group for a repost, it’s not a flex
They are grateful for life, but when they have something truly worth celebrating they won’t hold back
It’s not fake maturity, we are usually on a date with reality and reality is not friendly.
One thing about me, I'm cool with no contact. If we talk, we talk. If we don't, we don't. I'm not reaching out to nobody who doesn’t talk to me. I don't force conversations or chase what's not mutual. I'm at peace with whoever stays or leaves.
Going through a phase right now, i think i've finally come in terms with letting a lot of stuff go including feelings, people, fears, just everything. it's time for new beginnings, new chapters that brings happiness, love and endless memories. it's time to move on with life.
