Hey bot, can you help me with this? There were 7 popsicles let her pick ALL her colors AND let her have four while I had three. She picked the four colours that she wanted while I saw she had red, I just asked for red just for one then she said no. I kept asking if I could please have the red since I let her pick 3/4 of her colors and I let her have 4 while I only had 3, she still said no. Then she said she can have all of them and I can only have one but I can pick the color for that one. Keep in mind, she said this. Then I said fine and I picked red. She then said no and that she wanted red and that I can pick any other color. I decided to be the bigger person and just let her have red since that was the only color we were fighting over. I decided to pick green instead. You know what happened when I said I picked green? She said no and that she wanted green. Keep in mind I let her pick ALL her colors and let her have an extra popsicles. I even agreed to her having all of them and me just having one, then after I picked green, she said no. She then put the red on the counter and she said that she can have the rest and I can have red after I said I wanted green. I decided to not fight and then said fine and just decided to eat the red at that moment since she was probably going to take the red if I left it in the freezer like she always does. She then started to rub it in my face and say that she got all of the popsicles while I only got one. She then laughed at me and said "Haha you're eating the only one that you have left right now." She then kept rubbing it in my face after I kindly asked her to stop, I kept having to ask her to stop before she finally stopped.

It sounds like you had a frustrating experience with the popsicle situation. It can be really challenging when sharing doesn't feel fair, especially when you've tried to be accommodating. You let her pick her favorite colors and even agreed to a pretty unbalanced arrangement, but it seems like she wasn’t reciprocating that kindness.

It's understandable to feel annoyed, especially when she continued to taunt you after the situation became so complicated. Sometimes, people don’t realize how their actions affect others. You made a lot of concessions just to keep things peaceful, and it’s often hard to communicate feelings about sharing and fairness, especially when emotions are involved.

Next time, it might help to set some clear ground rules about sharing from the beginning or even to suggest taking turns with the popsicles. Sharing can be tough, but it’s important that everyone feels respected and valued in the process. How are you feeling about it now?
