It's the thought that counts...at least they had the courtesy to uplift that.

I know what you mean, though, people tell me that all the time, and get me nothing, but it's nothing to get mad over. It will cause more arguments and such. Just don't give them presents next time if it bothers you.

I like nonsense...

I knew a girl in high school that always said that... She always felt bad about it to. She wanted to get people stuff but her family was not all that wealthy, and could not afford it.
Maybe such a thing is the case with your friend?

...it wakes up the brain cells.

Song was that girl you knew .. me?

Ha. I tried getting my friends stuff but I was wayyy tooo poor to get em anything. I always felt bad because they were so generous with me. u.u

(As for the topic - It is not that they are being fake, you can't judge em that quickly )

I pick and choose who I give gifts too because I never have much cash. I don't have many friends, so that's no problem, but this year I did get my best friend a gift. I just made her a loaf of pumpkin bread. She loves my pumpkin bread, and the ingredients aren't expensive, so it worked out perfectly. smile

She might just not be able to afford to cause she spent her money on ehr family, just dont get ehr anything if it bothers you so much, but i do get what u mean but it doesnt mean there being fake they could be forgetful?
oh well its about giving not recieving sometimes ^^

Sigh. Can't you just be thankful to have those people in your life instead of just caring about what they get or don't get you?

And its "CURIOUS"  

[Nemsy]

Mikey. Isn't that why we have thanksgiving for? haha just kidding. >u>!

 

[Dreams of Nowhere]

maybe they couldnt get something but they did mean to!!  

[LA Trunks]

I'm just curious... Why do some people get to be so upset when you can't get them something for Christmas? Why do some people assume that you never intended to get them anything when it wasn't that you never intended to, but that you just couldn't afford to get them anything? It just makes these people seem so greedy when they get upset about your not being able to get them anything.

well, of course, there is the issue over not being able to afford a gift. Maybe they didn't intend to get you anything in the first place, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they are a "fake friend". I mean, it could mean that, that they didn't really want to give you something, so just said it to say it, but it all depends on the person. I wouldn't judge it by the gift they give or lack thereof. I'd judge it by the more important things in life, like if they are there for you and what-not. I didn't get a lot of people gifts this year like I normally do. But, even when I do that, i have to make sure who I'm buying for for money's sake, because I do have many people who I consider friends, thus I can only buy for the closet ones, or the ones I see a gift for and have to get them it. Then, it makes me feel bad that I left someone out.

So, it's all a matter of who the person is and what the true situation is. I don't expect to get gifts from people, so it doesn't bother me... and it bothers me that when I get a gift for someone they feel obligated to give one back. They shouldn't feel that way, that they shouldn't. Christmas is about more than receiving gifts.
