So it was my nephews 1st birthday party (my brothers son) about a week ago. I had been trying to help my sister in law with party ideas etc. We aren’t very close but I made the effort with her because I know my brother would appreciate it. I ordered some theme cupcakes for them that cost me £25 and my sister in law said she’d get my brother to pay me back. I just left it because I thought it was a nice gesture. Today My brother tells me ‘oh they weren’t that nice’. So I get really offended especially because they were free for him and I had made the effort. They weren’t amazing which I already knew but it really upset me that he couldn’t bite his tongue. So I got really upset and said well if your going to complain about free things then why don’t u pay it. Which I regretted later but I felt upset by it.
He said family should be able to be honest and this stuff, and that I’m being overly sensitive as if I baked them.
Now I’m unsure how to feel 😞
