I just realized something- I feel like a brat for being mad but I am!

as I am sitting here trying to figure out when i can go buy my sister a b-day present- I realize what did she get me for my B-day?

nothing

what did she get me for my shower

nothing

what did she get me for my wedding?

nothing

so why am I the one always spending my money- she's the one who lives at home, that my Dad gave his 1 year old truck too- she not a kid anymore

now my brother didn't get me anything for my wedding either

what are the odds I will show up at his wedding with out a card?

I am starting to feel like I am being taken advantage of

ok vent over

Yeah, my brother and DH's brother gave us no card, no nothing for our wedding. Chat Icon I don't care about money, but I kept all the cards and will never have one from them! I'm always one to remember occasions, etc., and it su cks when other people don't!

Oh, are we related?

My brother does the same. He got us nothing for our wedding as wellChat Icon and made the most inappropriate toast. Life is ALL about him.

my DH told me to **** it up b/c I am the oldest

guess what that means- the money is coming out of his account

that's what you get for giving me access

Did they at least give you cards on these occasions? It's one thing if they have NOOOO money and think of you by giving you a card.

I would get her a nice card and call it a day!

Just get her a card...or, wait a minute...did you say that she didn't get you a card either? If that's the case, then don't even get her a card.
