[quote=Anonymous]I’d love to hear how the DCUM crowd would handle this situation. I have a gut feeling on how to move forward, but am always interested in others opinions and perspectives.

My sister and I are currently in a bad place. 4 years ago, at my bachelorette party, I apparently said something that offended her. Ive tried to speak her about it many times, apologized repeatedly, and accepted full responsibility for doing whatever it was that had upset her (for the record no one else on the trip remembers my doing anything out of the norm, but that’s not the point). I know I hurt her,  I am sorry for it, and I’ve said as much to her in voicemail and email. She still won’t speak to me. The past several years my husband and I have lived out of state, and we participated in gift exchanges by mail. She did send gifts to us.

This year we are back in the same town as my family. We also have a baby. We did a socially distant garage exchange of gifts. Due to what I assume are COVID related shipping delays, my gift to my sister hasn’t arrived yet-it was ordered 12/4. I printed off an imagine if the gift and let her know it was in route. She didn’t say anything, and as we left I realized she had not given my husband, baby, or me a gift this year.

So-here’s the quiz. Do I:
A) text her when the gift comes in, asking for her address so I can still give her the gift 
B) email her and say I didn’t realize we were in such a bad place, and that if she didn’t want to do a gift exchange that’s fine, I’ll keep the gift when it arrives
C) keep the gift when it arrives but don’t reach out to her
D) some other option?
