You can fix that by removing your birthday from Facebook. I did that one year and it turned out as expected, people only wish you happy birthday on Facebook, because Facebook more or less tells them to.

The other way to solve this is to set your birthday to an incorrect date; that way you don't have to feel bad about not saying thanks.
