[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) You should always graciously accept a gift, unless it’s wildly inappropriate. 2) Once it’s yours, you don’t have to keep it. 3) You do not need to reciprocate gifts. 4) You may decide to keep/display gifts and/or reciprocate even if you don’t want to because you think it will strengthen the relationship. I mostly hate gifts too. It’s just something you have to deal with. [/quote] This is what my grandma might say, but I suspect even she would disagree if she knew what all that junk was doing to the landfill and the earth her offspring would inherit. No, you do not have to accept a gift graciously if you have already said you do not want gifts. In grandma's day people violated boundaries all the time. Now we know better. People are allowed to say no to you. It's up to you to accept no graciously. [/quote]
