Learning to enjoy my birthday alone, (because I have no friends)

Do you feel alone. Do you spend your birthday alone because you have no friends. In this video I share my story about what I did for my birthday, and how I made it a good day despite spending my birthday alone. Being alone on your birthday can be very depressing. I hope this video can inspire you to get up and enjoy your birthday, even if you have no friends to spend the day with.

    I would NEVER travel with people again. I spent my last two hols worry about others. Curating THIER time and trying to please their moaning. I knew I should have gone alone but pandered to the nonsense of needing others. Worst decision ever. Revel in your alone time feel the joy of being able to travel and care for yourself. These times are a joy. Happy birthday beautiful lady.

    Agreed! I spent my time in Iceland being the chauffeur to a friend who wasn't "comfortable driving in a strange country" while following her directions, pumping gas (again) doing what she wanted to do (she brought along a 6-page itinerary which I didn't ask for, and got up at 6:30am every day because "that's when I get up: Mind you, there was 18 hours of sunlight. We left every attraction when she said, and finally, the last straw. We were staying at an Airbnb and the owner was showing me his personal Iceland family scrapbook. She actually pulled on my shirt and said it was time to go. When we were in the car I told her that was kind of rude to our host and she screamed at me! Are we friends still? No. I will never take a long trip with a friend again.

    Hi Neenah! Sorry you had such a terrible time. I also went to Iceland in March 2023, I went alone and had the best time. I rented a car and drove myself around (didn't go too far out though). I did a walking food tour and spent an entire day in the lagoon. People in Iceland were so friendly.

    Hi Phia, Thank you so much. I totally hear you. I had a big argument when I went on a group girls trip to Greece years ago. I've since learnt that I did not communicate my expectations nor was I assertive about my preferences. Also, I should've stepped away and did my own thing every now and then. I'm not implying that this is what happened to you, just wanted to share what I have learnt about how to travel with others and get our needs met simultaneously so we can have a good time. 😀

    I would rather be alone than around other ppl wishing that I WERE! It’s very rare that I feel lonely nowadays, and surprisingly, when I have felt lonely, it’s been when I’m around ppl that I don’t connect with (That use to happened a lot at work). I try to cherish my time alone. It’s actually quite peaceful

    You should’ve told me LOL I would’ve gotten there in no time and I am great traveling company! Now seriously, I love Bali and big groups are annoying. I have many many friends, and I have a good group of very closed ones, BUT, I only travel with 3 and mostly separately . Traveling is tricky with others and can destroy friendships. Enjoy yourself and your amazing blessings. There are many people right now not knowing how they will make it to the end of the month. You could’ve been there with a man sucking your space and energy. Don’t question things. Let things flow. Be grateful all the time. Pray for people that can make you happy while YOU MAKE THEM HAPPY AS WELL and sooner than later, you will have new people in your life

I’ve come to terms with that and realize that I am a strong, beautiful woman that has settled a lot in her life and refuses to settle for anything less looking at your videos has inspired me.

    Hey Latoya, Happy 🍨🧁🍾Birthday. Your trip (the Vila) looks awesome. I have to put Bali on my list of places to visit. I like this video. The mystery of the woman in the red dress. My birthday is coming up in August. I will copy you celebrating with my own bottle of champagne. I will include a small cake and ice cream as well. I'll be in Maastrict, Holland on my birthday. I intend to treat myself to high end, retail therapy as my birthday gift. Maastrict is renowned for it's many local and international retail shops. I'll then go to one of my favorite restaurants in the city. Having hope to meet new people, make new friends is always a positive message.

    Happy birthday, girl! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 You and I are literally in the same boat. I celebrated my 29th birthday alone in Puerto Rico this February. It was my first trip taking a plane. Having no friends always deterred me from traveling, but I told myself that I can’t allow that to keep stopping me from exploring the world. I’ll only get older and time passes by so fast! I’m in the mindset that I have to do the things that I really wanna do while I’m here. I figured for my first trip, I’d do Puerto Rico because it’s still US territory and not much long of a flight, so it felt like a great way to get my feet wet with traveling. And now, I’m going away again to Panama in June. I’ve had a passport since 2022 and finally getting to use it! 🤗 I’m going on this trip with a black owned travel company that brings people together to do group trips. Maybe you can try doing these group trips sometimes to meet new people/potential friends. And I think you stated you live in NYC. So do I. I’m open to meeting you, if you’re open to it as well. 🤎🤎🤎🤎 We already have four things in common. Black, women, no friends who love to travel. Let me know. 🤎

I shall not lack joy, happiness, and experiences/adventure just because no one else is there to share it with. I'm gonna live and enjoy my life even if I have to do it all by myself!!

    Happy birthday ! I know what it’s like to truly be alone. My husband and best friend passed away a few years ago and my mom passed away a few months ago. I try to keep going in their memory . This helps me to keep fighting to keep living. I try each day to put one foot in front of the other and have faith that even though I’m technically alone GOD is always there. Sending hugs and love to you 🩵

    Happy Birthday! You mentioned that there was a "problem". I don't see one. What I see is peace, tranquility, God's beautiful green Earth and one of His beautiful creations enjoying it all! You are living, not just existing. And, congrats on traveling alone. Many women in relationships do this annually both married and exclusively dating. It's not adequately publicized because society chooses to promote the lie that singleness equals loneliness which translates into a host of other negative misconceptions. Can you be single and lonely? Of course. But, one doesn't have to. The lens that you're looking out of determines this. Keep pushing forward and doing great things. 💜

    @@turnaroundstory You're always welcome! I hope I'm not overstepping with this question, but do you find it difficult to build friendships at work or do you find it to be simple? I recall in a previous video that you stated you are an RN which I say KUDOS to you. I've never met a nurse who didn't advocate tooth and nail for their patients! I'm a medical professional as well...Speech Language Pathologist. Out of all the medical settings in which I've worked, I've gained more meaningful relationships from the acute care setting. I can only assume it's because of the high pressure/high stakes environment which causes people to trust and depend more on one other for the survival/progress of their patients compared to other settings. Just a random question. Thanks in advance either way.

    Over 50 birthdays alone. No cards. No cakes. No balloons. I will die alone. And all I see is women that are begging for a man. For a relationship. For love. I guess I missed them all these 40+ years. Life can be so sad sometimes.
