This Is Me, Nothing More, Nothing Else.

Question...

My parents always buy for my girlfriend.... But they never spend a tenth on her what they do on me. I’d be freaked out if they did.... She’s not their daughter or responsibility in anyway! Dani’s mum is similar... She’ll usually give me vouchers... And give 5 times as many to Dani. Which feels normal to me? x

Question...

Like seriously WTF!!
My mom is pissed and said oh I'm gonna say something and I said for what?
It'll fall on deaf ears. I told my boyfriend last year I took it personally.
I'm waiting for the right time to say it again.
Like seriously he's 33 years old and I swear she would wipe
His ass if she could.
I'm just baffled by it. I'd love to say something to her.

Question...

Dude. My parents spend just as much on my fiancé as they do on me. Same with my brother and his fiancée. They did the same with my late brother and his girlfriend. Once you're in a serious relationship, they treat your partner like a family member. Hell, my family got Kyle a present for our first Christmas dating (which was 3 months of dating, by the way).
This year, they got him snowshoes (not cheap), photography gloves (also super not cheap), and a bunch of other things. They spared no expense.
His parents? Got him a 51 piece tool set. Got me a small tin with crock pot recipes (a $12 purchase).
His mom and step-dad took 3 years to even think about getting me a present, and then they forget about my birthday, too. My parents also go all out for Kyle's birthday in February.
I've stopped feeling upset about it. It's not about getting stuff, it's about treating your kid's partner like family, and it's obviously not happening with your boyfriend's family.
All that to say: I get it. I do. And it's crappy.

PSA about depression

Wow, that sounds like a narcissistic thing for someone to say. Assuming that you're hating them when you are feeling bad about yourself. I hate depression. I know cancer needs to be cured, but I feel like curing depressions should be a thing too.

Single Mom?

I'm so sorry. Sometimes we're better off without the extra baggage. I hope things get better for you!
