Christmas is more about the people and less about the presents. But when you’re spending it with those you don’t know very well, getting them something nice can be a good way to show you’re willing to make a connection.
Reddit user Crimsoncheez shared a story about spending the holidays with her boyfriend and his two daughters. The woman said she hoped a necklace might help bridge the gap with his older girl. However, the thirteen-year-old rejected it.
That may have been the end of it, but later, the teen asked for it back. The woman felt she was being ungrateful and decided to keep the gift for herself. The two of them got into an argument, and with her conviction shaken, the Redditor asked the internet for an outside opinion on whether she was right or not. Here’s what she wrote.
