I have a daughter 15 y.,my boyfriend has a son 20 years old.On Christmas he gave his son a computer?

which costs 1000EU,to my daughter he gave 100EU so she could buy her earrings.I didn´t like that,it´s unfair! Or at least don´t lell me that(he told me about that during our dinner in the restaurant),just give my daughter any present,but don´t tell me that your son got 10 times more expensive thing! We live together(I,he,my daughter) His son lives with his mom.May be my boyfriend wanted to provoke a fight?

Update:

By saying that he knew it wouldn´t make me happier? Or should I congratulate him and consider it´s normal?

Update 2:

He is NOT a poor child,at home ha has already 2 old computers,but he wanted a laptop,so he got it.Just because he and his grirlfriend are 1 year together his father(my boyfriend) had to pay fot their trip to Paris,5 nights in Hilton.After his son fished his scholl the father bought him a new car.what else? It´s a long list.My daughter(yes,it´s not his own daughter,so what?) is not treated in the same way!

    Then again he might have given his son a computer because at 20 he needed it for school and/or work. At 15, living at home and still under the family umbrella, your daughter doesn't need as much. Besides that, life isn't fair. Sometimes you have to give what is needed instead making everything "fair" and "equal". This is something all 7 of my children understood from a very early age. The only one picking a fight here is you.

    First of all, that is his son and you should not worry how much money he is spending on your daughter. If your daughter wanted some earrings, your boyfriend gave her something.

    So why are you provoking a fight? I do not see a problem about him spending a computer for his son. Have you ever thought that the son may need it for school or for a job, maybe?

    It sounds like to me that you think your daughter should be spoiled and get a more expensive thing then the son.

    Grow up! That is so trifling to start an issue like that. He seems to be a nice man. Remember this man is not your daughter's father. What did her father give her for Christmas?

    I think it was a nice gesture. So hug the man and act like a grown up.

    You're sick in the head and need to be dumped by this guy because you are greedy and selflish. How dare you complain sicko.

    ----------

    Well, I'm in a similiar boat, because I have a daughter who's 24 and for the most part we have limited contact. For my 16 year old at home I support her, and see her every day, and I'm there for her and pay for everything for her. There is a long long list. But for my older one maybe she only get's two gifts a year from me.

    Maybe you are familiar with the guy who gives his gf an expensive gift because he's just buying her love because he's not around enough. I guess it's similair, because I'm not there for her all year long I like to get her a nicer gift on those two days a year. For my 16 yo I get her so much, and I ger her gifts for no reason, and some of those gifts are much more expensive than what I get my 24 year old. But the point is that if you're gonna sit that at Christmas (4 months ago) and count the items ina calculator and come up with pie charts, you're missing the point of christmas and being a little petty.

    Besides a computer is probably already in your home and I bet your husband thought a computer would help his son out in a big way.

    On a differnet point...what did you buy for your daughter in EU amount, and what did you buy for your bf's son in EU amount?

    Why are u bringing up this christmas gift thing now?

    I think you're just reading too far into things boo. ****, I'm a grown *** woman and sometimes I still kiss my mom on the lips. That doesn't mean I am in love with my mom and want her in a sexual kind of way. She's 10. He's 20. That's his little sister. Some people are just more affectionate than others. You should be worried about making your son happy to be back home. You shouldn't be dwelling on whether or not he is a cho mo and your daughter is in love with him.. Damn..Give them a break. I am not very close to my brother but when he came back from Afghanistan and I saw him for the first time in 15 months, I ran straight towards him and jumped in his arms. And I was 13.... So does that make me in love with him or does that mean there is something more there? No.. It just means I missed my brother and I was afraid he could have died and I was happy to see him alive!!!!

    Read the proverbs; Blood is thicker than water.

    I don't see why he has to treat his own son the same as his girlfreind's daughter! Its a completely different relationship. You are seeing tham as bro and sis, but its not like that at all Can't you see that?

    When he passes away, do you think your daughter is going to get some inheritance? I doubt it!

    I could understand if you two were married but he is just your boyfriend. He bought something for HIS child...your child is not his nor his step child..I think your being silly woman ..stop being jealous over a man buying his flesh and blood something wonderful...and be lucky he even got your daughter something..some guys wouldnt

    I don't see why he shouldn't give something more expensive to his own child than yours. And 100 euros is a lot of money for a 15-year-old.

    Compare this with what you bought your boyfriends son and what you bought your daughter. Are you expecting the man to buy everything

    U should buy your daughter x'mas presents and he should buy his son x'mas presents!! My step dad gives me like $20 for x'mas, he gives his daughter like $400 for x'mas. But i fully understand that, i am not his daughter she is,my mum gives me more money or expensive gifts and only $20 to my step sister.

    He is showing preference. You can do the same. When you buy things, buy cheap for his son and expensive for your daughter.
