Should I be mad?
Find answers to your legal question.





Should I be mad?

I come from a very wealthy family and am accostumed to receiving lavish gifts for special occasions. My fiance's family is also well-off, and they know the lifestyle that I am used to. This year for Christmas, his family only gave a bag that retails for a little over $700(Louis Vuitton Antigua Cabas MM.) My family and I, however, spent over $3,000 on his family. I feel cheated. Should I ask my fiance to buy me more gifts to make up for his family's lack of consideration, or just spend less on them next year?

I feel for you, you have money and are generous, they on the other hand, and wealthy and stingy.... yes be mad. Spend less next year, and ask for more presents from your boyfriend.

Wow. That comment sounds extremely selfish. It may not have been your intention but that's exactly how you sound. It's not about how much someone spends on you or you spend on them, its about family time. You need to learn a vaulable lesson on giving and humility.

you should not be so concerned about the value of the gifts but the thought that went into it. oh, and try not to be so conceited next time.

I think that the money value shouldn't matter. I come from money as well but I am definitely not as consumed as you. Do you recognize how lucky you are to even have a family?

Stop crying idiot.

Um... maybe be grateful for what you get? $700 dollars is about 4 times more than what I get, and I'm happy. I got a few dvd's and some money to buy some RAM for my computer.

Be grateful at whatever you receive, some people got nothing, it's not what they spend but the thought that goes into it

It's the thoughts that count, not the price.

get over it you selfish little b*tch and give your money to someone who's starving to death rather then b*tch about a purse that will be out of style in two weeks. There's more important things in life then $700 dollar purses and money. get over yourself. i certainly hope one day because of your selfishness that you wind up losing all of your riches since that's what seems to come first in your mind.

EDIT

by the way you're ridiculous and not everyone will bend over backwards to please you. I would pay good money to watch you fall flat on your face when you are shoved into the real world. In the real world all you're gonna get is a slap in the face with an attitude like yours you selfish pathetic disgusting spoiled rich girl. Grow up

christmas isnt about gifts so you shouldnt be mad you should feel good for giving them more

cheated? I tell you what, go work a job for a couple weeks and get a different perspective on life. Not some fluffy daddy created job. Go work as a waitress somewhere and maybe you can appreciate what life is about.....and it is not about the monetary value of Christmas gifts.


foxxy lady
u should grow up and quit pouting over stupid stuff. atleast u have a lot of money to buy gifts. some of us don't. i only had $200.00 to spend on my 3 year old son and 5 year old daughter for christmas. and ur bi*ching about a $700.00 bag. grow up.

no u shouldnt be.....

Neither... A gift is exactly that it's a gift!!! To put a condition on it takes away the meaning of the word "gift"... Each of us has to learn by experiences. It doesn't matter what type of lifestyle you are "used" to. Treasure what you have, who you are, and that you are forunate enough to have received anything at all!

Yes, you have been cheated, poor thing. Maybe you should return the bag and take the money and buy some food for some poor little six yr old that is living in squallor and eating out of Dumpsters.You poor retched st%$*d B&%^h. Are you a Paris Hilton wanna be. People like you make me want to puke.

Different value systems here. You're not going to be happy with this man who doesn't indulge you in the manner you are used to.

you should also be happy to have received the gift of greediness.........oh wait, no you were just born with that.

You should give back the bag and tell them you don't deserve anything for being such an ungrateful spoiled little girl. Then you ought to go do some charity work with people who are less fortunate then you. Maybe then you'll understand the folly of your greed.

Christmas isnt about how much money is spent on you. (700 seems like an enormous amount to me) You should put more value on their love and friendship, than feeling slighted.


Captain S
No. You should respect the true intent of gift-giving in the first place and accept it with the graciousness it deserves. Just because you're expected to be spoiled and self-centered doesn't mean you have to be.
