Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Start things off with first post, sorry if I’m doing anything wrong and I’m writing this on my phone.

My (id like to say ex) best friend’s 18th birthday was last year. I got her tickets to Twenty One Pilots. Not gonna lie, tickets weren’t cheap. $132 AUD each

I thought it would be fun, we could camp out together, get ready and have fun together, ya know what best friends do with each other. Fast forward to her actual birthday when I told her I got her tickets. She was very excited obviously because she loves this band but after that date she talked to me less and less. I just blew it off as school because year 12 was stressful

Fast forward again to the concert night. She got there a bit before me because I had exams, work and what not. I thought okay cool I’ll go get my number to wait in line thinking she’d save me a number because I got our tickets, we were gonna go together. Nope. I got there, got a quick hello from my supposed good friend and then she ran off for the rest of the wait (around 18 hours). Not only that but her girlfriend was yelling at me for some stupid not relevant reason so I just left. 

My friend then told me to leave the day of the concert and not be with her because she was with other people and ignored me whenever I tried to talk to her. Ngl not a fun time

Fast forward again to my birthday. I have major social issues and I HATE opening presents in front of people and she knows that so I said thanks and put the present next to me. She got REAL upset about that and forced me onto the couch to open it. 2 candles, a fridge magnet and a kangaroo keychain. She got upset when she didn’t see absolute enthusiasm and for the rest of the night her girlfriend was kinda dirty looking me

My dilemma is that I’ve grown up my entire being thankful for anything I receive. it’s a privilege not an expectation to get a birthday present. And people have told me I’m a stuck up ass for not being thrilled with candles and Australian themed souvenirs(we’re both Australians so really it’s nothing special) it’s eating me up inside not being grateful
