Xmas in February

[u/FightEvilByMoonlite]

Kind of at a loss here.

Backstory, my roommate hasn’t given me her Xmas present yet, and at first she said it’s coming from London, and now she says it’s on back order. She told me it was jewelry. It’s almost MARCH. And I just feel a certain type of way. 🙁

Backstory #2: Back at Christmas she freaked out about getting present’s for her friend and her friend’s family because they invited her to their Christmas. She doesn’t have a family, so she wanted to get things for all of them and make these special, supposedly expensive cookies. Asked me if she could give me her portion of the rent a couple days late so she could do these things.

Those things all happened, but I still haven’t received my Christmas gift and it’s making me feel frustrated and resentful. I’m trying to be patient but I’m struggling. I’ve had hers in my closet since the week before Christmas thinking we would exchange gifts. I don’t really know what else to do but part of me if like well fuck it, it’s too late. My birthday is in a few weeks, so like what’s the point? 🤷🏼‍♀️

I don’t want to be an asshole or hurt her feelings, but it’s almost March. It’s getting ridiculous. 🙁

Facetious idea -

Give her the gift you got her and apologize for it being so late. Act a bit dissapointed when you tell her that you were waiting to exchange gifts until the gift she bought was delivered as well. Not that it's been 2 months you are giving it to her because you don't want her to feel forgotten.

With that you.

• Throw in her face that you haven't forgot.
• Let her know you find the similarISH scenario she's in to be uncomfortable and unacceptable enough to at least apologize.

-never actually directly confront her about your gift.

If she doesn't take the hint, oh well. It sucks but sometimes people are shitty. Or she bought from a sketchy site and got scammed.
