as a giver, i thrive on gifting people things without expecting anything in return. but, that 1% where i'm stuck in my head and i'm spiraling, i realize that i never get anything. and as much as it doesn't bother me in the moment, when my depression hits, it bothers me a lot.

Every time I receive a gift I’m reminded how much people don’t know me

My mom told me "poor him" when I was showing him all the gifts I got him and I'm still finishing, I asked "why?" and she said "poor him because what is he going to do for YOUR birthday?" (as in I set the bar high) and I said "a letter is more than enough". And now I don't even know if we'll be together by my birthday, maybe not even for his... I screw everything up. My mom was right, poor him for having me in his life.

this is why I don’t show anyone what I get for others 😭 always a slap in the face when they don’t do the same for me and all I get is embarrassment in return

Why was my nephew willing to buy his friend a $50 Roblox gift card and I have never seen his friend from his school attend his birthday or give him presents

just because you would do something for someone doesn’t mean they’d do the same for you. find that someone who will.

My husband asked our one daughter that. I needed her to learn it on her own the way I did. It’s not the expectation of something in return it’s the effort. Eventually she realized it and did so long before I did

Or when I got home from school on my birthday, and my mom asked me what my friends got me… (it’s a tradition at my school for girls to buy eachother flowers and other gifts on their birthdays, and I always make sure to get my friends a gift. I didn’t even get a single card.)

I got my ex possibly the most thoughtful gift after we broke up, without asking him, bc I wanted to be nice and I was abroad. He was also abroad in a different country and I had to ask him to get something for me and then he didn’t even know what I would like. It made me feel really great since we dated for over a year and a half and he didn’t know what I’d like🤗
