not sure if I'm being hormonal or if I'm right to be a bit peeved. (first thread)
At the beginning of the year dp and I decided that this year due to money being a bit tight that we would not buy any adult relatives birthday gifts,just a card but that we would still buy for our nephews.
I explained to my family who were all fine with it and dp was supposed to speak to his family. All of my family birthdays have been and gone with only a card given, but now his family birthdays have started he's changed his mind and wants to give gifts. The first (his sister) I argued with him and he backed down, the second (his brother) we did give a gift to as we hadn't realised this year was a 'special' birthday and now his mum and dads birthdays are coming up he wants to give gifts again. I don't think its fair that my family have gone without and we still don't have 'spare' money, we don't use credit cards or have debt other than the mortgage. I will feel terrible if pil mention to my parents that fil really liked x present.
Aib an u pregnant crazy?or is he bu to have one rule for my family and another rule for his?
