“My daughter is also fourteen, and two parts of her Christmas day gifts were a Cartier Love Ring and a YSL purse. I bought the same for my cousin’s daughter, as they are very close, and I thought she’d really like it.”
“My cousin’s daughter excitedly FaceTimed her mother to show her the gifts that I bought her and, upon ending the facetime, called my cousin very upset. She said that I spent more on her daughter for Christmas than she had and was livid with me.”
The thing is, it never occurred to her to think about the price of the presents that she picked out for her niece.
She just got presents she knew her niece would love, considering her daughter is the same age, and she knew exactly what her daughter really wanted for Christmas.
Her niece’s mom is beside herself still, as this woman feels that she “made her look bad” for not buying presents that cost as much.
She never wanted to make her niece’s mom feel bad at all; she just wanted to make her niece feel special.
She’s left wondering if it was a problem, after all, to spend $4,000 on her niece’s Christmas gifts. What do you think?
