65+ Belated Happy Birthday Wishes

I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings or make you feel like I don’t care. You are an amazing person and such an important part of my life. I feel so devastated for forgetting your big day. I don’t know how it could have slipped my mind.

Please know that I am unbelievably sorry for missing your birthday. I’m so sorry I wasn’t there for you, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me. If I have to beg for your forgiveness, I will.

I hope you had a birthday as incredible as you are.

I know you don’t like to make a big spectacle of your birthday, which is why I purposely waited until after to wish you a happy birthday this year!

I know you must have been waiting all day to see a message from me appear, and I’m sorry that I missed your special day.

But you know what they say, my friend; save the best ‘till last!

Happy birthday to you!

I too was thinking of you on your special day yesterday but you’re also on my mind today, too!

Happy birthday!

It’s completely understandable that you might be feeling as though I forgot your birthday this year, but that’s simply not what happened! I just couldn’t remember the exact day!

I knew it was around this time, so I at least deserve partial credit for that, right?

Happy birthday to you, anyway!

Happy birthday, bestie! I know your
special day has already been, but this
way your birthday celebrations can
last that little bit longer!

Sorry for the delay in getting these wishes to you, my friend! I hope your special day this year was a truly great one!

Now that you’ve heard from all the rest
You’re ready to hear from the very best!

Happy birthday to you!

Gosh darn it, I missed your birthday!

If it’s any consolation for you to know, I was having a wonderful time and just lost track of the days!

Hopefully I’ll be having less fun next year, then I might remember your birthday!

I know I totally flaked on your birthday and I’m sorry about that!

I don’t really have an excuse so I’ll just apologize and hope we can move past it!

It looks like I hit the snooze button on your birthday and overslept, my friend! I apologize sincerely, but I hope you had a great day all the same!

Oops, I forgot your birthday… My bad!

You should really have a more memorable birthday, though, so you're partially to blame here!

I’m sending your birthday wishes later than
planned this year as your birthday came
around much quicker than I was expecting,
my friend! It really crept up on me!

Although this comes a little later than
planned, I want to wish you a very happy
birthday! I hope you had a fabulous day!

I want you to know that I'm very sorry for my tardiness in wishing you a happy birthday.

I may have forgotten your special day, but I remember all of those days we spent together that were so special to me. I hope you can forgive me and focus on all of those special days, too

I hope you had a great birthday!
