Sister should pay her share of expenses

Aug 10, 2024

DEAR HARRIETTE: My younger sister and I are planning on taking a vacation together, and she expects me to pay for her portion of the trip. She is 22 years old, and I am 30. While I want to spend quality time with her and make this trip memorable, I feel it’s unfair for me to bear the entire financial burden.

Forgotten birthday endangers friendship

This year, I went all-out for her birthday and threw her a huge party, making sure every detail was perfect to show how much I care. It hurts that she couldn’t even remember when my birthday is, especially since we have been friends for six years and both live in Washington, D.C. We have shared so many important moments together, and I thought our friendship was strong and meaningful to both of us. Her forgetting my birthday has made me question how much she values our friendship.
