No, I don't like attending them (waiting around and hoping that s/he is surprised and happy about it) and I wouldn't like if one was thrown for me. Debbie Downer over here!

@HabesBabe: same!
I hate everything about them. That being said: I have thrown ONE before (the person LOVED IT; but I knew they would) and I've have one thrown for me (but I found out about an hour before the party and had to pretend to be surprised).

I have always wanted a surprise party for me! I make hints to dh all the time and often think I'm walking into one lol.. a girl can dream tho I don't like going to them, or at least knowing the secret, I am always worried I am going to spill

I love them! I love throwing them and I love attending them! I've never had one thrown for me but I would love it - as long as I thought I was going somewhere similar so I was dressed appropriately. I would be mortified if I turned up to my own party in scruffy clothes!!!

My DH threw me one when I turned 30 and I thought it was super awkward But I am an introvert
DH on the other hand is a huge extrovert and I threw him one for his 40th and he LOVED it!!!!!!

I love throwing them, but not so much receiving. It's more because I never know how to react to it so I look ungrateful/unappreciative/dumb. Then a few hours later, I'm like omg! That was awesome and I spill my excitement via text later. Sigh.

I like them for other people, not for myself. I've never had one, but I can't imagine I would enjoy now being in on the secret/planning (I'm type A)

I'm not usually one for surprises but I had friends throw me one for my 26th birthday. I loved it! It was nothing fancy as they just gathered at my favorite bar. My only tiny complaint is that I would have invited other people that my friends didn't know about.

I would never ever want one thrown for me, but I don't mind them for other people as long as the person that the party is for would be ok with it.

I dislike being surprised! My gf's threw me a baby shower where they kept the details hidden/a surprise and even That drove me crazy!
