Is it rude to open your gift at someone else's birthday?

Two friends meet to celebrate a mutual friends birthday, due to circumstances they've not met up to exchange gifts before then, so gifts are exchanged.
Just as cards and presents are being opened by the birthday girl the other friend opens hers too.

Being rude is more about perception. If the person directly effected thought it was rude, it probably was. If she didn't mind, I'd say it was fine and move on. I think "read the room" is probably the best way to decide.

@SW-User Well does the birthday girl asking what you got make a difference?

@Mellowgirl not sure. Depends on how she asked I guess
