My sister hadn't given me a gift on my b'day or on xmas in year's.

I don't understand why she looks at me expecting a gift. Last Christmas I gave her a dream catcher, with neon lights. She loves it! Last birthday, I gave her my very own copy of Spyro 2 (we're both mad Spyro fans). She, of course, graciously accepts. Come time to my birthday. Sister has no time for me.

Skip ahead to today. Sister visits close to her birthday. She reminds me of her approaching birthday. I won't bend to her! I won't agnolish such a pathetic display...

I know where you are coming from...I often wondered why I even bothered acknowledging my family's birthdays (or anniversaries, mother's day, father's day, etc.), they never even as much as called to wish me a happy whatever. When I first got married they'd call my wife to wish her a happy birthday but not me. They eventually stopped calling her too. I never forgot to at least call them on these special occasions and let them know I was thinking about them...but I could never figure out why I continued to do that. Maybe it was because I'm a better person than that?

If your sister is impoverished, it is understandable that she has stopped giving you gifts. Otherwise, it is not. I know that my brother gave me birthday and Christmas gifts right up until the year my mother died. Then I was shut off. I could only assume that he gave me gifts to impress her with his devotion to his family.

Why didn’t you bring that up with her? I’d be so mad if my brother did that, the disrespect?!

@SW-User b c she knows. Last birthday, sister made a point how she and her partner can't give gifts to family, unless they're kids.
