Expert Answer

Think of something that aligns with the values and interests of the person that's being celebrated. If they thrive in a lively atmosphere, go all out with a big party—bring in some great music, set up a fun theme, and invite a lively crowd. But if they’re more comfortable with a close-knit group, plan a cozy gathering where they can relax with a few good friends, sharing good conversation, food, and connection. If they’re someone who loves self-care, a spa day can be a fantastic option. Get them tickets to a relaxing experience where they can meditate and unwind. Remember to tailor the activities based on their interests and values.

Question

What if you ask the person and they get mad and slap you?

Community Answer

That would be a totally inappropriate reaction and seems very unlikely. If the person slaps you for asking when her/his birthday is, you certainly don't need to worry yourself about the birthday any further. sabrina,

Question

What if I can't communicate with that person?

Community Answer

Try asking people who know the person, for example, their best friend or sister. You could also Google them. Check their social media accounts, and look at previous posts to see if any of them mention it being their birthday. Do the same for their friends and family, sometimes they will post things like 'Happy Birthday to the best friend in the world!' or 'Out for drinks to celebrate (name)'s birthday! Cheers!', and by looking at the date posted.

Question

My grandma doesn't know when she was born and I want to find out when her birthday is. How do I do this?

Community Answer

Ask her where she was born. If she tells you a hospital or place, you can begin to search online and at the hospital or city she was born at so that you can find some record of her birth.

Question

I forgot my crush's birthday and we don't really talk to each other, and my friends don't know, and I can't ask his friends either. How do I find out his birthday?

Community Answer

Try tricking him into answering. Mention your own birthday and try to get him to talk about his. Try getting the month first, then the year, and day. Otherwise, try asking a family member of his, or if you are classmates, ask the teacher if he/she knows.

Just ask the person or, if it's a surprise, ask someone they know and tell them it's for a surprise.

Question

How can I find out someone's birthday when I won't be seeing them for awhile, and I am not in contact with any friends or relatives?

Community Answer

If the person is old enough to have a Facebook account, check there. If that fails, you may have to ask the person directly.

Question

How can in I politely remind someone of my birthday?

Community Answer

Say: "I can't believe I am 13 today!" (or whatever age you're turning). Or, ask their birthday and say "Wow really! my birthday is [insert date" if it's not the actual day.

Question

What if I don't know any of his mutual friends and nothing pops up when I google him?

Community Answer

If you know absolutely nobody that knows him and he's not showing up on Google, pretty much your only option is to ask him his birthday.

Question

I don't know my favorite teacher's birthday, and I don't know his family or best friends. What shall I do?

Community Answer

Ask politely about their birthday. There is absolutely no need to be asking about your teacher's family and friends though, that is their private life. If they don't want you to know their birthday, then don't ask again, just let it be.

The best way to find out someone's birthday without stalking them is to just ask them. They'll probably answer your question quickly and clearly.
