DEAR DEIDRE: MY girlfriend is so ungrateful.
I’ve seen a side of her I really don’t like.
We’re both 30 and It was her birthday last week. My family asked what she wanted as a gift.
My team and I are working safely from home but we are here to help you as always.

I said she could use money, as she lost her job during the pandemic and cash would let her treat herself to something.
But we were having tea the other night when she announced: “Your sister was a bit mean this year. I only got a card with £20 in it.”
I was horrified. My sister is a single mum and on maternity leave at the moment. She doesn’t have much money.
My girlfriend said: “I just mean it’s less than normal.”
I can’t believe she said it.
DEIDRE SAYS: It might have sounded ungrateful but she did recognise she had worded things poorly.
Give her the benefit of the doubt this time but if she says something along these lines again, call her out.
Remind her your sister is watching her finances – and as your girlfriend is out of work, she probably can’t flash the cash either.
My support pack Job Hunters might help her.
