Is it normal to feel hurt that you're not thanked for the gift you gave someone?

I don't know why I always feel this way sometimes. I went to my cousins 13th birthday which I had fun. I got him a cool shirt. I saw his best friend gave him the same shirt. When it got my my gift from him, he was like, "Oh its the same shirt. I already have this shirt. Ooh and I got $40 nice!" Then he quickly mocked on to the next gift. I couldn't believe this. He didn't even say thank you to me but to everyone else he did. I didn't make it into a big deal but I eas hurt inside. My dad wasn't. He didn't care. Maybe I didn't hear him say thanks. Am I too sensitive.

He's 13, give him a break.

They only think of gaming and perhaps girls. 😁

@EmotionalMotherlessWoman1988 jus remember, he's coming out of childhood where the world revolves around them as far as they are concerned.
Teenage years are spent dealing with swirling new hormones and start.g to explore their world.of human relations, and where they fit in.
Thinking beyond that, doesn't come till later..
Be patient... 🤗💜
