if this is out of character, she might be having an emotional or mental break. I know quite a few very good people who after a year of work then go straight home every day, have snapped over such minor things. let them calm down a bit and talk to them.

The fact that she's ranting about the price of her dogs gift is actually far less concerning than the fact she seems to value her dog over her children. I hate people like her. Dogs are great creatures. But you're a piece of shit if you prioritize them over your own kids.

She sucks as a friend. Who does that???

You are her FRIEND, not a boyfriend or a husband. And I agree that the dog isn't on the same level as her kids. I understand dogs are family but that is ridiculous.

How ungrateful is she? You got her, her five kids, and her dog gifts. Maybe don't give her and her family gifts next year.
