OK - he may not be rich exactly, but he earns a lot of money, his wife also works full time, they live in a massive house, have an au-pair, annual skiing hols etc etc, and what I got from him today on my birthday was a cheap as chips bracelet that probably cost no more than £10.00 (if that) and is already starting to make my wrist go green.
In fact the card is in his wife's handwriting so I suspect that she was roped in to buy the gift and send it, and she's not my biggest fan.
I know I shouldn't care, but I do. I don't have a DP/DH so family presents are more important, and I feel so let down and sad about my life.
