So today is my 29th birthday!

Me and my immediate family spoke in a group chat last week and I arranged a meal tomorrow to celebrate. I would have preferred to do something today but also wanted everyone to be there so we reached a compromise.

Its currently after 4pm and not a single one of them (mum, sister or brother) has reached out to wish me a happy birthday. 

I'd also like to mention that this isn't the first time they've forgotten my birthday and they frequently leave me out of things because I'm not on Facebook- the place where all things are arranged apparently.

I want to just cancel the meal tomorrow but I know there will be backlash from them if I do. They've said in the past that I'm overly sensitive and have a temper. I do suffer from anxiety and mild depression but I think I'm reasonable in feeling unloved right now.

Would I be that the asshole if I cancelled my birthday meal with my family?
