Ok tell me what you think honestly!?
My birthday is the 22nd of this month. Here at work every other person had the whole month to themselves. I share my month with my boss and another co worker. I have always shared my "party" with the other two guys but lthis year is a special number for me and I thought that I should have my own special day! Of course you don't dare say that, that would be rude. The girl that has her b-day in Nov. is all about her from Jan-Dec and very loudly voices that she has a b-day in Nov. and wants a great big party. Is it bad or childish that I would like just this one time to have a party here at work and not have to share? I know this sounds rediculos but for some reason my feelings are hurt. Maybe because I am getting old.LOL!

You don't have to be a bore like the Nov B-day person, but just tell them in a nice way that this is a special birthday for you and you would like to have your own party this year. If you don't ask for what you want, how do you expect to get it? I see nothing wrong or childish in this.

I understand where you are coming from. You might mention what you have just said to your boss. Other than that, the only party where you get to choose for sure is the one you throw for yourself at your own house. You could do that and invite everyone from work that you want to come.
BTW, you are getting old when you do NOT want anyone at work to throw you a BD party, and are very grateful that someone else gets to share the month and "enjoy" the attention.

The birthday party that you want should not be at work. Celebrate with your friends. It is not your co-workers responsibility to make you're birthday a big deal, it is your friends and family. As for you're co-worker who makes her birthday a three month celebration, she is just desperate for attention and should be ignored.

Well, I think I understand how you feel. Maybe you could explain this to your co-workers without having to sound rude. Oh, and it's not because you're getting old - anyone could use a bit of that now and then.
