Be honest do you get a little disappointed when you do not get many presents or they're random cheap things?

I always got disappointed when a present consisted of say hand lotion and a pair of socks. I'm used to people dropping lots of money on me for presents. When I buy presents I spend well over $50 on each person and they get a lot of things.

Oh yes I always choose fitting gifts and my friend got me a kitschy GREEN lamp?! I still wonder what she was thinking while gifting; not to forget the ones who gift me clothes, they know I hate it and I hate their choices and it’s almost always ill fitting

@SW-User Honestly who can really blame them. Not everybody is good at giving gifts. You need to basically guess what the other person will like, even if you know them pretty well. Another reason for me not to give gifts and ask them not to give me any either.

@SW-User Do they ever get you the wrong size and it's totally not your style? My grandma would always do that.

@FeetAreFantastic That’s not an excuse if they’re a close friend though, but yeah I’m actually curious to see what she comes up with this time

@Addictedtoglamour ikr?! They get something fancy and it looks like a freaking nightgown?! Lmao

@SW-User I always got pjs sets that were too big and old man like. They would always ask for a list and would disregard it.

@Addictedtoglamour at least they *asked* for a list
