Should I tell him my birthday is soon?

My birthday is next week (Tuesday to be exact) and I was hoping that a certain someone would remember. I am not looking for a gift from him, but just hoped he remembered and for some reason I dont think he is going to remember. Should I tell him my birthday is coming? I just hate telling people because I want them to acknowledge it on their own.

    Hi, I am Anonymous from the most recent question you asked.

    The reason you want him to remember is (as I assume) to either get attention or to feel special because of the fact that he remembered.

    If it is to get attention, do what the previous two answers have said, either make a status saying that your birthday is coming up, or casually tell him (If you don't want to, you could speak to a friend about it, and speak a little bit louder so he can hear).

    If it is to feel special simply by the fact that he remembered, don't tell him because if you remind him then all of the parts that make you feel special are gone. If you tell him beforehand, then there would be no reason to get any kind of satisfaction when he says Happy Birthday.

    May the odds be ever in your favour.

    Do you have him on any social media? If so make a post saying its almost your birthday. Or like one time to let someone it was my birthday i posted a picture saying "Last week of being 17" or something like that. i mean thats easier right?
