    Hello

    There should be an article before the word "party" in both sentences. The verb "meet" is in the wrong tense in your sentence B.

    Hello,

    A: Today is your birthday. When you will give (me) a party for me, for us??
    (In a direct question, you must invert the auxiliary verb and the subject: When will you come, when can you come, when did you come?)

    B: I will give you a party when I met you)

    After "when" in a time clause, you must keep the present tense:

    "You will come and I will tell you the secret" becomes:

    I will tell you the secret when you come, when I meet you, when you arrive, as soon as you arrive.....
