I was so busy during school one year, around finals, with a full course load and classes I didn’t understand, and I worked part time on top of it, that I forgot my boyfriend’s birthday... I already suck at dates (it took me three years to remember my best friend’s birthday, and I still forget my family’s birthdays). I felt atrocious. And it added to my stress... because he was so hurt that I forgot... I ended up crying during class because he asked me the day after his birthday if I forgot. And I did. There was nothing I could do to make up for it, and nothing he would accept. I had a mental breakdown because of it. My boyfriend at the time didn’t mean to cause it, but it was seriously the straw that broke the camels back. I truly loved this man, but I forgot something as simple as his birthday, all because of the stress I was under...

When Asahi realizes he forgot it will probably make him feel even more like a fuckup because he does care for Masato. All y’all taking a massive shit on an already stressed human...

I’m seriously feeling all of the stress again as I read this, and it’s been years since he and I went our separate ways (not because of lack of love, but because he had to go back to his home country). Still love him, still don’t remember his birthday. Now I’m stressed again. Lol
