[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe so many people think it's fine to have a wedding registry to set up their home, but not one for [b]a single person who might never get married and does need help setting up her house.[/b] I'm not saying put the info on the invite or be pushy about it (which no one should do for any registry, obviously). I have single friends who've gotten me so many sweet gifts over the years for various reasons (as a PP said); I'd be so happy to celebrate their milestones. This immediate judgment of 'tacky'... It's just mean-spirited and closed-minded.

Even the example OP cites, maybe it made the woman's mom happy to see her kid celebrated in a big way for once. I don't know them, but hearing it in the abstract, I don't esmt to judge them so harshly.[/quote]

I assume that if you were able to buy a house on a single income, then you do not need help setting up a home.

OP's relative was being gift grabby. She should have graciously accepted whatever people brought her...mattress, flowers, wine, or just their presence!!![/quote]
