It makes sense to reject the gift at some point, I myself will not easily accept the things someone gives me, I need to know the reason behind it first. In real life, I will see where the give comes from that has become my habit. If the giver was unknown I would reject it without a second thought. Most of the things I received un up nowhere to be found. When it happens I will just think that thing is not destined to be with me anymore.
Now my consciousness has developed to a certain level including considering deeply before asking for help from a close friend or so. Thank you for bringing this up @xiao-aine
You are saying those gifts can be stolen? Tgat can play or role or you receive back what you once gave. A bad surprise as well.
No, what I was saying is that I will not accept things given to me easily without knowing the origin and the reason behind them. Secondly, I will not easily ask for help from others (such as asking to borrow some money or asking for some support at a critical moment in my real life).
How are you there?
Aren't gifts always given for a reason? Birthday, reward, spreading joy, love, bonding, manipulation, overall good feeling for giver and receiver, a favour needed... I don't ask but mom kept me alive for many years as I was jobless. We still share the bills. If one of us is in need we help out another. No other family or friends we would ask. Not going to a bank, we get no loan, and no loan sharks. We are raised by society not speaking about debts or finances but my family doesn't care. We say: no money or this is too expensive or I'm not gonna waste money on this. It makes people stop asking. If critical it's hospital or dead. I take the risk. I'm fine so far,work or home, lucky I eat at work no need for groceries, just the dogfood. I hope you are ok. A good day!
