With one foot just out of the forties and the other foot not quite over the hill, no two 50-year-olds are alike. That’s what makes 50 so interesting. Some still strive to be forever young, while others have settled into their skin, and still, others are wondering who the heck is in the mirror. Some still see an exciting journey ahead, some are exactly where they want to be, and others are coasting toward retirement. Some are celebrating, some are commiserating, and some are denying it together.50 Positive Birthday Wishes For Friend
Does any of this sound like the person you’re celebrating? Before you write those happy 50th birthday wishes, it’s important to know your audience and the overall tone you want to set—celebratory, complimentary or humorous. Of course, for some people you can combine all three. And feel free to do so with the suggestions below.50 Positive Birthday Wishes For Friend
50TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATORY WISHES
Celebrating the day and sending positive thoughts for the future is a can’t-go-wrong choice for anyone turning 50, especially if you aren’t sure how they feel about their age or if “funny” doesn’t feel right. For example, if your co-worker is turning 50 but you want to keep it office-appropriate, or you’re attending a party for someone you don’t usually hang out with, or if it’s someone you don’t see very often, it’s best play it safe with a short and simple wish. Even if you do know the person well, but you’re not sure you can joke about fifty’s failing eyesight and creaky knees, stick to focusing on the day and then wish the best for the years ahead.50 Positive Birthday Wishes For Friend

COMPLIMENTARY MESSAGES
Everyone loves a compliment, especially if it’s sincere. If you know this person well enough to give them a 50th birthday card, then you probably know their strong points. Compliments on appearance are especially popular for women, while compliments on attitude or accomplishments work well for anyone. But, let’s face it, not everyone is feeling fabulous at fifty, and that’s where the sincere part comes in. Telling someone they look amazing or have a lot to be proud of when you know they’re struggling might actually make them feel worse. In that case, go back to focusing on the day and the future. Otherwise, let the 50th birthday compliments fly!50 Positive Birthday Wishes For Friend
