Was like you till my younger sister bought me a shirt and two boxers last two years ago. Even though the gift came two months after my birthday, I felt like crying. This year my ex did frame for me.

Is it normal that no one has ever gifted me anything on special occasions? I'm talking about Valentine, birthday and Christmas. I am 29, and since I became anything close to an adult, I've never had anyone care for me enough to show me love on these special days. Not from family, not from friends.

I am currently not dating and things are really rough for me right now, but I've gifted people in the past. I know some members here will say I'm feeling entitled to the outcome of other people's efforts, but that's really not the point. I just want to experience love and feel loved no matter how small. I can't ask for much.

Having people gift you things is a big flex. I'm not even talking about people coming through for one when one needs help because that one na long story.

So, guys, is this normal? Is it very much normal that feel unloved over this? I'm really over thinking it for sure, but I can't help it.


Bro...don't wait on people,if they don't gift you, gift yourself,I'm over 30 and I'm living life and getting it alone without thinking if I got anyone around or not...I just run my race and do things to make my soul pleased... nobody cares.

You are brutal man. Brutal honesty! grin grin grin grin

This life is rigged for the average black African male.
Blame black men,na dem carry hypermasculinity and patriachy for head pass so why do you expect people to see them as humans with feelings first before seeing them as men,if you tell them to feel,they deny it because they want to keep the stupid hypermasculinity image that dehumanizes them

I have given to people several times in the past. But it seems no one cares when it comes to me
I mentioned the giving of presents and not giving of alms or charity. These are two different things.

When you give alms, people don't necessarily develop that urge to give back as you would expect. They consider it a help afforded them by your person and that is where it typically ends unless they have the urge to pay it forward, in which case it also doesn't necessarily mean they would give back to you. undecided

I have found that when the gift is personalized and packaged as a present and not some charity, people appreciate it more and are moved to return the favor. When you personalize gifts in the form of presents, you are making the receiver a person and not just some charity case and that means a lot to folks. undecided
