Accepting Gifts And Choosing The Gifts To Accept! by Nobody: 10:12pm On Jun 09, 2009
Are there situations where you can accept any type of gift from guys/girls or are there some in which you just have to say no?

1. Do you accept gifts from guys/girls you can't date?

2. Do you accept expensive gifts from male/female friends?

3. Is it right to accept jewelries as presents from guys/girls who aren't your partners?

What gifts would you kindly recieve from a male/female friend? What others aren't you so pleasant with?

Gift-giving and receiving are becoming complex acts where we need to think ahead like chess, signs that we need to do better. Every single one of us.

I wouldn't accept jewelries from guys I can't date and from my male friends.

A thong from a guy who I am not dating is a no no.  shocked Is he saying he wants to ******?


I must think for more!  cheesy

Abeg, I accept gift from both sex. I have more gift cards in my purse than I can count.

It depends on what the gift is given for undecided

Personally I have my rules on accepting gifts. . .

Accepting gifts from any dude am not comfortable with is a No NO, even the so called ones that come with the friendship trick! (And when I mean comfortable, we've been dating for a while) !

Food is the only thing i can accept from just anyone

michelin89:

1. Do you accept gifts from guys/girls you can't date?

No, unless again it's food grin

michelin89:

3. Is it right to accept jewelries as presents from guys/girls who aren't your partners?

Well unless he's a really good friend (even that sef go hard me, it took my ex 2 years to disturb me to just accept a pendant grin)

michelin89:

Food but if he's a good friend, perfume i can handle.  Same for the women.

What if the girl is a close friend?
I dnt accept gift that's given for certain reasons. I mean, if all your friends are giving you gifts during a celebration or so, would you say "No, since you're a girl, I won't take yours. Next"?

well, i am not a big party persin in the 1st place, usually i dont throw parties in the name of my birthday, i can count how many times i have done that; but if i am invited to a party i carry gifts period. i try to avoid a girl's gift though, nothing serious but it helps me to make my life simple.

Accept gift from a lady? No way. I was once slapped way back in school by a classmate soleley because she borrowed me some money to pay for my off-campus accomodation which I repaid though. The dude grew annoyed cos she saw a lady in my room and gave me hottest slap of the year right in middle of the institution. Jesus wept!

Anyway, if na my gal I go collect sha. But no gift from my gal go dey more than her love towards me oooooo. lipsrsealed

I give very freely with no hidden motive I like making people happy.
I find it hard to accept gifts though I always worry someone will hold it over my head.
People think its me being proud its not I just hate drama.
