I Have Random Thoughts

I'm needing to vent and I'm probably wrong... but this bothers me.

My stepdad has TWO daughters. Me and my sister. Yet every Christmas it is my job to take him Christmas shopping so he can spend upwards of $350.00 for my sister and gets me nothing.

Last year my sister got me a $20.00 Snoopy and put our Dad's name on it so it was from them both.

Meanwhile, he buys her expensive items.

My sister just called me to make sure I again take Dad out to buy her gifts. She made it be known that I'm in charge of making sure he spends money on high quality items and not garbage... yes, she did say that. I had to give her my email so she can email me a detailed list of what she wants.

I wish it didn't hurt that I get singled out as being a ''non-daughter'' while he feels exceptional for spoiling my sister.

I would tell your stepfather that you are hurt that he cannot see spending any money on you for Christmas gifts, yet he expects you to take him to get gifts for your sister. If that is the way he wants to be tell to shop on Amazon or send gift cards.

Here’s part of my sister’s email-

My favorite perfume is Mugler Alien though I do tend to like the scent of gardenias and lilac too ( I hate smelling like something you eat), I love journals and crystals (of all sorts). Dragons and Bears are my favorite animals. Fall colors and purple are my favorite. I like dark chocolate and salt water taffy. I have a weakness for beef jerky or any type of jerky (hell I even had bear jerky and yes it was yummy). I prefer white wines like riesling, chardonnay, pinot gris and sauvignon blanc. And you can't go wrong with Bailey's Irish Cream....yum. I've been looking at glass calligraphy pens with colored inks. As far as jewelry...I can only wear real gold and silver, so that may not be something he would get for me, besides I usually make my own if I need to. I've been looking for a bluetooth speaker that would pair up with my Alexa for my bathroom....I haven't found one yet. I even thought of an Echo Dot for my bathroom. I hope those are some good suggestions for Dad.

@BlueRain that is such a cop out. What the fuck is wrong with Dads?
When did they stop being men? Maybe I’m
Old school. I’m 58 and dads don’t treat there kids like that. Biological or not. They are still your kids. Mine will be my punky and big dog no matter their age.

My mum is the same due to her abusive controlling husband. He doesn’t allow her to spend much on me whilst his daughter and my sister get loads and are spoiled during the year. He didn’t even let my mum send me on trips or buy me new clothes when I lived there until I was 13. Yet he said my dad is tight.

Enough is Enough! Don't let yourself be a door mat! Tell your sister it's Her turn to go shopping with Dad, and buy You something nice.
I mean, really🤔

Especially with everything you have going on right now, it would be perfectly reasonable of you to decline
realrare · 51-55, F
I won’t, I’ll do it. My Dad likes spoiling my sister. @GoodoldBob

If you really are 46-50, you're old enough to tell your dad "no".
