Q&A for How to Find Out Someone's Birthday

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.

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,

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.

No. Birthdays don't affect someone's outward appearance.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Just ask. Most teachers will just tell you, and they aren't going to get offended or anything.

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.

Watch their YouTube videos and see if eventually, in one of their videos, they mention their birthday.
