Is my family the only one on the planet that has takeaways for a birthday treat??
They are just not part of our diet never have been
Each to their own don’t think anything of it people treating themselves to them often , I feel really weird now

She seemed very nervous when her “dad” turned up!
Not just you! I’m 40 now but as kids McDonalds\burger king were a treat every few months really, if we had a day off from school then mum and dad would both pick us up from school as a surprise, deep pan pizza with a friend if we wanted for a birthday treat and occasionally fish and chips if mum couldn’t be arsed to cook as she was late home from work or on a weekend, we never had proper takeaways and the above was literally a handful of times a year, it was a real treat if we got anything like that as it was expensive an my mum liked to cook and wanted us to hear home cooked meals. even now I’m the same, me and my bf have more than we should but it’s still not a frequent thing!
