Call a Friend

Social media can only be a useful solution for you if the person has posted their birthday and chosen to keep the information public. If this isn’t the case, then you may need to resort to other solutions and one of the best things you can do is simply call a mutual friend.

Think of someone else in your circle of friends who knows this person’s birthday and ask them. You might have better luck if you can find their family friend.

Check Their Calendar to Find Their Birthday

You can also check their calendar to find out their birthday. Often people will have their calendars prominently displayed in their homes and if you have access to their homes, you can simply check their birthdays.

This may work with digital calendars as well, although they may prove harder to access than physical calendars. If the person trusts you enough to leave their phone lying around you can access their digital calendar and find their birthday.

Do a Google or DuckDuckGo Search

If the person has a strong online presence, you might be able to look up their birthday through a Google or DuckDuckGo search. Just type in their name into the search engine and you may be lucky enough to find their birthday since the search engine will link to any public records including any personal websites and social media accounts.

Information through Conversation

If all else fails, just try talking to them. Depending on how good you are at twisting words, you may even get them to indirectly tell you when their birthday is. For example, you can start by talking about how you share a birthday with a famous person or someone you admire and your friend will be compelled to share the same. Then all you have to do is find out when that famous person was born and you will find your friend’s birthday.
