Dude... DUDE. Last year my husband's cousin (who I've never met in person and who I am friends with on FB but we don't talk much) got pregnant and invited me to the baby shower and that was a STRAIGHT UP no.

We are close to everyone as soon as they need people to celebrate them on their baby shower 🤧
Omg this!!! I have a friend I hadn’t seen or spoken to in a year. She texted me out of the blue and I said to myself, guarantee she is about to announce a pregnancy. Right, of course, and she asks for my email to invite me to her virtual shower, no need to get them a gift, they just want to see me- big no, especially because she and I have no mutual friends so I would not know a single other person. Sent a gift instead and never even got a thank you or a text acknowledging they got it.
Wow...this makes my blood boil 😒😡
Yikes that sucks, how rude!
I won't lie, I've never bothered to send a gift for all these baby showers I'm skipping lol they can never ask how I'm doing so why tf should I spend money on these people?
Fuck you, fuck you, HUGE fuck YOU, I'm out!
No I sincerely agree with you. The friend I was referring to does not know about our struggles so I can’t hold that against her. I’m more annoyed that I apparently don’t matter until she wants something and then when I give a gift I’m not even thanked for it
Right. I'm the same. One cousin might have an idea, but otherwise these people don't know me unless it's for something, so I don't go out of my way to give them my time or money.
