I’m a no gift kinda gal. I will accept them graciously, but if all I get is “Happy Birthday” I really am fine. my hubby spoils me all year. No need to wait until a birthday to be treated nicely.
Has anyone else given a gift that was carefully thought out only to have it handed back to you with a “No thank you” yet you’re told you’re not allowed to do the same when you can’t use the gift you receive? After 6 months of grief my, adult, kids are finally seeing my side and making up for their attitude.

It’s the thought that counts, unless you’re the spouse!

Charlene is probably an old fashioned gal of simple pleasures. Either that, or Clarence is just a cheapskate.

Lesson my kids learned; if significant other says no gifts their better be one.

Give her another broken down car to fix. She would love that.

Was the “no gifts” idea Charlene’s or Clarence’s? Is he afraid he’ll get shown up by someone else’s perfect gift?
