Tell him you put a lot of love and effort into this gesture and that you are hurt that he couldn’t find the time to walk to pick up this gift from you. Tell him you are further hurt to hear that he has time to play the video game but not to get your gift which was going to spoil. I would close with that you have learned something from this and will be less inclined to do something for him or send him things in the future. You may choose to add that you hope if he ever has a girlfriend, he’ll come to realize this is a good way to hurt a person who loves you.



Tales of the long-suffering mother will not do much for family relations.

If this is in fact urgent conversational material, clearing the air with a sense of humor, some perspective, and (important!) brevity, should do the trick.
