I am really broke at the moment - like, so broke I can't even afford to go out for a pint, because I am living at a loss from month to month - and yet a while ago I donated some money to a group present thing for an LJ friend's birthday, because they were having a hard time financially and it seemed like a nice thing to do (not a lot of money in the great scheme of things, but a lot for me at the moment). The person in question hasn't acknowledged the gift at all - I'm not wanting an individual acknowledgement, but there hasn't even been any sort of acknowledgement on LJ at large, and I would like to be the bigger person, but I admit that it has soured things, particularly when the person in question posts about doing things and going places I could never afford at the moment. I am petty! But I needed to vent.
(NB - this isn't about anyone on your flist, slem.)
