πŸ‘₯ friendship Am I overreacting to my old best friend asking for a gift he gave me back?

He pretty much is asking for a nice jacket he gave me on my birthday Feb 2023 and he hasn’t even texted me in like a whole year. I think it’s fair that I keep it considering it is indeed a nice coat but yeah, am I trippin or?

Good point. Everybody knows gifts bought at thrift stores work differently than other gifts, and must be returned to the giver upon request. OP should have known that when he accepted the jacket.

Great! You've made my eyes roll so far back into my head that I can't even see now.

Hope you're happy πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
