From my dsis. She's having a rough time at the moment and is apparently very broke, but she texted dd to say she would buy her something the week after her birthday when she got paid. That was two weeks ago and nothing. I'm not sure i can ask her. Dd has said actually I'm a bit hurt that Aunty Faz didn't get me a present. I said i know, i get it but she's a bit all over the place atm. AIBU to be a bit pissed off? Even a card would have been nice!

I think YANBU aunties are supposed to be like a second mum

Eh?? Different families have different dynamics and possibilities and individuals also have differing wants, abilities, limitations etc. Not every aunty HAS to live & breathe for its n/n like a doting mum in waiting. Nor should they if they don't want to. And even if they want to, family dynamics doesn't always allow.
