[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have given gifts and received thank yous and not received thank yous, and I dont care either way. I dont give to receive anything in return.  The act of giving is what makes me happy. And that is what I am teaching my own kids.

Giving a gift and then immediately harboring resentment because you dont get something back, and complaining about how rude the person is that you just gave to?  that is just negativity i dont want in my life.

If you get a gift from me, write a note, dont write a note--whatever! Just enjoy my gift.  I've given it to you because I like you and I want to celebrate with you and for you-not because I got an announcement and felt obligated, and not because I am friends with your mother and felt like I 'had" to.[/quote]

So true!
Why would anyone turn gift giving into a topic all about themselves (and be so upset to post it on DCUM). I'm thinking that's pretty poor etiquette...[/quote]
