I've been taught since I was young that I should politely decline when people offer you a gift of some sort. To be honest I never really understood why I have to do that? Is it out of modesty?Or some unwritten rule lingering in the air that if you break it, people will deemed you falsely.Growing up I felt uncomfortable when people are willing to give me a gift or worse, ask me what I want during the holidays or my birthday.Usually that left me speechless for awhile then I'll say I don't need anything.

I don't want to beg for anything that I want, but I guess it would be nice once in a while if someone surprisingly gave me a gift. Hell, I used to felt sooo uncomfortable when people even willing to trade me their stuff or currency on avatar sites. Like chill, they're just willing to help another person out. Does that mean I should be obligated to give something back? Should I give them something back? If I do, am I doing this to the goodness of my heart or societal rules is playing tricks on my mind? Tf is wrong with me x.x
