That part about “should I pay for the cruise trip” is interesting! My daughter dated a guy for a few years and she broke up with him recently. The guy owes my daughter $10K. When my daughter began to collect, the guy started deducting the expenses he dished out during their dates 😩 get this - he charged my daughter back for a birthday wine he gifted to her. My daughter, in disbelief, asked him - why are you charging me for this? His reply - you finished the wine in the succeeding weeks! OMG talk about character flaw!
A gift for a wedding is TOTALLY different than gift for a birthday. Birthday gifts after 18 is a treat, but a wedding gift is expected.
I wouldn't bring up the no gift thing to the cousins.
Dont ask the cousin about the gift. When they dont get a thank you note, you can bring it up then.

What a jerk...smh
Don't ask if they sent a gift 🎁 unless they said they would first.
If you dont want to be in a social group, you owe them no reason to leave. Just say you are obligated elsewhere.
He invited her to the cruise, it wasn't a negotiated discussion.
Did they sleep together on the cruise? If so, he got more than the cost of the trip! LOL
A rule according to who?
