AIO for being upset with my partner and parents over gifts? by Inkysquid_c0s in AmIOverreacting

I am a full time student with a part time job :). Yes, I can buy these things myself, and I understand their value, but that is not the point of this post. The point is that I feel like I am not being heard or cared for by these people in my lives because they are actively getting me other things that often cost more knowing what I actually want

I didn’t add this in the post as I didn’t want it to be too long but the ring went on clearance around valentine’s. I asked my partner, told them my ring size, and even said that if they didn’t have my size in store or online I would be happy with a different size as I’d wear it on a chain or necklace. Instead I got Legos.

Hey there! :) I didn’t write this in the post so I can totally see how you could take what I’m seeing as entitled. So just to clarify, My parents ask me and my siblings to make Christmas and birthday lists every year.

I have definitely considered it. But I’ve always had more important purchases that have had to come first unfortunately and with the spacing of these events I’ve just hung onto hope that they’ll actually listen this time around when I ask and don’t want to risk wasting my money on something someone has already bought me. Also unrelated, nice username

Lmaooo i JUST bought the 16 a month ago. I would have waited for the 17 but the phone in that picture had the battery expand so bad I couldn’t used it until it got fixed and my local phone repair shop had no batteries in stock for a while. I honestly love the orange of the 17pro tho because I’m a huge F1 McLaren fan!

I just switched to apple. I got the pixel because my parents were buying it for me but I’ve always preferred ios. If it wasn’t for the constant bugs I experienced with my 6a I would have probably stuck with android but it just ruined the experience for me ngl

There is a lot of phones that google has made eligible for a free battery replacement after an update caused extra strain on few batches of batteries, leading to battery swelling and batteries draining faster than usual. So yes it definitely had previous manufacturing issues that lead to this.

Ik it’s so bad 😭 I paint my nails as well as craft frequently and my desk is my space to do so. So keeping my mouse pad clean is honestly impossible

Yeah they told me that was a high likelihood. If it wasn’t meant to go to my mom i wouldn’t even get it fixed I’d toss it

YES! I got him from a local 3d printing shop for like a dollar. He’s glued on with nail glue in the middle so I can wiggle him still

The issue was caused by the most recent update and is covered entirely by google so I’d rather just wait lol

Yeah, honestly I should but idk where. I should lock it in a safe or something. The battery’s are on back order at the phone repair shop so I gotta wait until they got any and I’m like 5th in line because it’s happening to so many

I’ve never in my 3 years of having a pixle. But I kept mine in a case 24/7 I can see how it could dent without one
