When is your birthday?

 

Hi!

 

When is your birthday?

Kapan ulang tahunmu?

 

That’s a good question to be asked to your friends, ya? It shows them that you care about them. If you remember a girl’s birthday, you will be very special in her eyes. ;)

 

People say, don’t ask about someone’s age, especially to ladies. In Indonesia, it’s common that people ask about your age, without knowing that it might be uncomfortable for you.

 

So please forgive them when they ask you about your age.

 

If you don’t want to answer, it’s okay.

You could say, something like, “I’m older than you.” with a smile.
