[This is unfair] I'M EMBARRASSED SAYING THIS AS A 30 Y'O BUT.....


No but... I might seem a bit petty for saying this at 30 y'o, but...
I used to have this group where we’d each give 100,000 won (about $75) for birthdays, right?

But this time, after I got a job in another city and moved away,
3 of my friends received their birthday money from me but they didn’t send anything for mine…

To one of them, I even sent money for both her birthday and wedding, without even getting a single meal out of it. Even for the invitation, I got it from a mobile app.

But on my birthday? Not even a single message...
Am I being petty? ㅠㅠ 

Honestly, I feel like it was a waste of money, and people around me are saying I should just cut them off…
But honestly, it upsets me ㅠㅠ 

Are there really a lot of people like this?

If someone dine and dashed on birthday gifts or wedding money, don't blame yourself or think you're being petty. Returning favors like that isn't just about spending some money it's about basic manners and sincerity. The one who dined and dashed is worse than the one who offered.  Even if you're planning to cut ties, say what needs to be said, get your money back, and then move on

Get your money back and cut them off, they’re not real friends anyway

This has nothing to do with age. Your friends are clearly in the wrong. You are definitely not being petty. They’re jerks. You feel even more hurt because you considered them real friends, and that’s normal

You're totally right to feel upset. Just don’t give anything next time either. If they bring it up, just say, 'Well, you guys didn’t send anything back then, so I thought we weren’t doing it anymore.' And if they say fine, then just drop it for good. Speaking from experience at 45 y'o, you lose a lot of people over the years, and that’s just life

First of all, happy birthday~ You’re not being petty at all ~ even I feel annoyed just hearing thisㅠ you're cutting them off anyway so you should just say 'Why didn't you give me my 100,000 won?' and then cut them off after getting your money
