How do you guys do birthdays?

I was diagnosed recently and my boyfriends birthday is coming up and I had been planning on baking him a cake, but now I'm not sure what to do. Should I bake him a normal cake? Is it ok to make a gluten free cake or is that selfish? I was told by someone that its selfish and not fair to try to force the people in my life to change what they eat because of my own dietary restrictions. Its not my birthday, so what is the right thing to do?

Edit: Damn, I didn't realize just breathing in gluten can mess me up. That's good to know!
