Birthdays and gift-giving?

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009
jumpingbean asked:

It’s my 20 birthday this weekend and of my close circle of friends, I remember all of their birthdays and give gifts, because I love picking out individualized gifts they’ll enjoy. It’s just a way of saying I appreciate them on their special day once a year. So, my close friends have this week given me gifts or wished me happy birthday, except for the one who is my very best friend! She knows it’s my birthday, but we’ll be apart over the weekend, so I won’t see her again until next week, after my birthday, but she never wished me happy birthday or gave me a gift. I feel foolish because I truly do value her friendship and I absolutely didn’t give her a birthday gift with the obligation of her giving me one back, but still, I feel hurt. But at the same time, I feel petty – she is a wonderful friend and has given me many intangible gifts through our friendship. I don’t know why a material gift is so important, but somehow receiving it is meaningful to me. Is it wrong that I feel this way?
