Woman’s Seeks Perspective After Her 30th Birthday Was Ruined Thanks To Her Boyfriend’s Lack Of Effort

Birthdays are a big deal to some people. Especially milestone birthdays like turning 30. If you’re lucky, most of them will be memorable, but hopefully because it’s amazing and not a letdown.

Unfortunately for this woman whose 30th birthday was ruined because of her boyfriend’s “lack of effort”

According to her post on Mumsnet, her boyfriend bought her a £12 necklace that broke almost immediately, and he asked to split the bill for dinner. She says he does alright financially, so you’d think on this occasion he’d put in a little effort, but apparently not.

Before making any rash decisions about her relationship, she shared how her 30th birthday celebration was ruined by her boyfriend’s “lack of effort”
