Are you a fool if you buy Xmas gifts for relatives but they never buy one for you?

[Dog Based Gremlin]

Is it kindness or being a pushover?

Got a relative who buys gifts for 10 individual relatives each year but only 2/10 people give them a gift back. Its been this way for atleast 14 years

I be like

this would be me. i don't think like that though, it just makes me happy to see them happy and that usually happens when they have a bright shiny object or money lol.
im the one that's buying everyone a round of drinks when we are out as well. just trying to spread love

plus not everybody has the money to buy gifts. sometimes they get me back, sometimes they don't

I think some people are genuinely good people.
They don't a gift back to know they are loved

If the person is an elder

Mom, aunt , grandmom, uncle etc

Or minor then I have no problem with it

But if it's a peer.. like a cousin , brother , sister

Then yeah fukk'em stop buying them shyt

No. I personally enjoy gift giving but I never want anything in return.

gift giving is more fun IMO.

I don’t mind but when the person starts REQUESTING a certain item as a gift nah that’s foul. Looking at you grandma

The ones that don’t give a gift back, next time shyt in a box and send it to them.

-If you're doing it out of goodwill/kindness/etc like above then no, nothing wrong with that at all. If you're buying people gifts expecting them to do the same & they never do it's foolish.
-I only buy things for kids so I don't expect anything back.

Honestly I'm not big into the gift giving shyt for anyone I'm not close with and quite frankly I usually choose to give gifts on a birthday instead of Christmas cause I don't believe in that honky shyt created to make you waste your money.

i def don't expect anything back because i buy myself whatever i want and my taste is expensive anyway. half the stuff i receive i end up re-giftin or don't use

I do Christmas for the kids and sometimes I might buy my siblings a gift but I definitely do birthday gifts out of the kindness of my heart all the time
