Alexandra_Trent 11/08/17 3:40:44 AM #4:	No. The word "deserve" is relative. No one deserves anything by default. Anyone who ever deserves anything does so from their hard work and contribution. Children don't deserve gifts either; no one is obligated to give them these extra things. Rather, they are given these gifts by people who love and care for them with the intention to make their lives enriched and to fill it with good memories. But when it comes down to it, gifts are a bit of a superfluity that almost everyone indulges in; not that there's anything wrong in it. --- "Ladies don't start fights, but they can finish them." -Marie, Aristocats <cite>Alexandra_Trent posted [p:889984342] in do you thi...

It is a family togetherness gathering in my family - presents are for the children, the happiness that comes with having all your family under one roof for a day is for the adults.

Are you still in this person's life? Are you not a jerk to them? Then yeah, you deserve a gift if it's given. If any of the people in here saying people don't deserve gifts and they have a significant other, remember to not get them anything for xmas. Not from them asking for it, just from wanting to show your appreciation and giving them something for being a positive in your life. Yes, that person deserves that gift. People seem to be confusing "deserving" with "asking for", "demanding", or "obligated".

That's the miracle of gainful employment. yeah part of why I don't care for the idea. when I know i'm getting gifts I feel obliged to do the same for them. or at least I feel bad if I don't. so why not the both of us just buy ourselves what we want and just enjoy each other's company if we actually care about each other? now if I was married or in a serious relationship, that person probably would be an exception. and my mother is an exception too. but shes done a lot more for me in life than I feel I deserved so yeah. my brother and I though. we've never really exchanged gifts. one time he gave me his old xbox 360 for christmas but only because he had bought the newer model my best friend and I? we might buy the other some booze on birthdays, but christmas we don't do anything for each other. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"
