...is what this feels like.
Dad died a few years ago leaving step mum. I was close to Dad but never got on well with her and since he died we have drifted a bit but it feels quite natural. She's quite an abrasive personality and we are very different in fundamental ways - literally, we are polar opposites.
Anyway a couple of weeks ago she asked amongst other things what dd wanted for her bday. I replied to the other things but forgot to say what dd wanted.
Step mum sent no present or card and when I texted to see if she was ok as unusual to have no phone call/card/present she said that as I hadn't said what to get she'd assumed i didn't want her to send dd a gift! Poor dd was a bit confused as to why she'd not heard anything from Granny.
I'm SO SO fucked off. Feels like I fucked up and Dd gets punished. Would it have been so hard to buy a gift/card/send a text/anything???? AIBU?
