…that seemed perfect when purchased but when it comes to the time to give it, you stare at it bleakly, and can’t remember why you thought it was excellent?
Yes this time last year. My oldest daughter's birthday,(which is next week) she's into KPOP her favorite group is Tomorrow X Together so i got her a necklace, ring and earring set with their logo, their photo album, posters, and 6 cds a cd player and this lamp with their logo because she's into fairy lights and things like that and i looked at the lamp and i was thinking is she too old for this? She's 22 she loved it thank God it was a big hit but i was worried
@AngelUnforgiven Ours went well, too. I got her a pendant on a nice silver chain that shows a compass with a large green jewel in the center and around the border, it says “I’d be lost without you.” Her birthstone is topaz, and I told her I knew that but emerald (emerald-ish) makes her eyes even greener. She then confessed she always thought she got shafted by topaz. So did I.
@Girlyfriendcollecting I went through something similar. They didn’t like my gift choices, so I gave money instead. When they complained it wasn’t ENOUGH money, I stopped giving them gifts. At all.
One has to draw the line somewhere. Personally I believe receiving gifts gracefully is a part of simple good manners. Like the gift or not, I appreciate that they thought of me, used their time and money to get it.
But, in this case, my daughter loved it as I first thought she would, but then doubted.
