Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Why is Bob crying at his own birthday party? Shouldn't this be a happy occasion? A character celebrating their birthday, for whatever reason bursts into tears during their party. Whatever the reason for the person of the hour, it's usually unexpected and takes people aback. Can sometimes result from a One-Person Birthday Party, or because the party has gone badly wrong. Compare A Birthday, Not a Break and Birthday Hater. In rare instances, it can be Tears of Joy. Can occur during a Birthday Episode (of course) or an Ageless Birthday Episode. |

In one book in The Baby-Sitters Club, the Arnold twins get upset at their birthday party because the entire setup treats them as basically a matched set (identical party dresses, identical birthday cakes, all the guests giving both of them the exact same gift), with no recognition whatsoever given to the fact that they're actually two distinct individuals despite being physically identical. The only time they show any real happiness is when they open Mallory's presents, because unlike everyone else, Mallory actually gave each twin something different and specific to their interests. | |

The Singaporean novella anthology Classic Singapore Horror Stories have two such examples: 12-year-old Katherine from Stepchild is shown breaking into tears after her attempt at performing a musical number for her guests is hijacked by the titular stepchild, who began playing pop songs - improvised - on her piano instead. Things quickly go out of hand until Katherine's eldest brother Augustine slams the piano shut, telling the stepchild to stop crashing his sister's birthday, but at that point, the party is ruined. Exaggerated example with Emma from Skin Deep, a Spoiled Brat, who is shown crying at her party... because she overheard a friend of hers, Sharon, saying her nose is too big. |

Problem Child has Lucy Henderson bursting in tears and throwing a tantrum as she sees Junior sabotage her birthday party (as payback for kicking him out of the magic show) such as putting frogs in the punch, dynamite in the cake after removing the candles, pickles and the juice in the pinata, throwing out all her presents into the pool, and setting off a water hose in her bedroom. She regains her composure after she's done crying to realize Junior is the obvious culprit. | |

Lesley Gore's song "It's My Party (and I'll cry if I want to)" is about the singer getting dumped by her boyfriend Johnny for another girl on her birthday and Johnny arriving at the party with said other girl, driving the singer into a Heroic BSoD as she sees them enjoy themselves. A sequel song (appropriately-named "Judy's Turn to Cry") has the singer realize how silly it is for her to react that badly, kissing another boy at the party - who Johnny promptly punches, reuniting with her while dumping Judy. |

This happened to Velma in a flashback scene from What's New, Scooby-Doo?. As a young girl, she ends up getting an encyclopedia set for her birthday. While she's the type of person who would love a gift like that, the party clown hired for her birthday thought it was a "yucky" idea, and threw it in a woodchipper. note Fred noted that Velma's mother hired the only party clown in town to have a woodchipper for a prop. Velma immediately burst into tears, and has since developed a phobia of clowns. | |

In the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils, one of the reasons Sweetie Belle thinks Rarity is trying to humiliate her all the time is because of a ruined birthday party when she was a filly. Sweetie Belle spent a while making herself look beautiful, but when she came down to the party, she heard the others talking about how cool Rarity was. From her perspective, Rarity had intentionally stolen the attention. From Rarity's perspective, she was trying to stop the guests from leaving and even tried to make them think Sweetie Belle was the one who prepared the whole party. Either way, it ended with Sweetie Belle running back to her room in tears. | |
